We're a little over a month away from seeing Charlize Theron and Nicholas Hoult share the screen in George Miller's MAD MAX: FURY ROAD, but there's another film starring Theron and Hoult that will be opening in France on April 8 that also has our interest. I'm talking about DARK PLACES, an adaptation of Gillian Flynn's (GONE GIRL) novel of the same name, and today we have a bunch of new pics from the film to share.
DARK PLACES stars Charlize Theron, Nicholas Hoult, Christina Hendricks, Chloe Grace Moretz, Corey Stoll, Sterling Jerins, Drea de Matteo and Tye Sheridan, and certainly looks intriguing judging by the international trailer we recently brought you. There's still no word on a U.S. release date, but A24 and DirectTV acquired all U.S rights back in November so hopefully we'll find out more soon.
Taking place in two separate timelines, DARK PLACES goes like this:
DARK PLACES tells the story of Libby Day (Charlize Theron), a woman who, at the age of 7, survives the massacre of her family and testifies against her brother as the murderer. Twenty-five years later, a group obsessed with solving notorious crimes confronts her with questions about the horrific event. Told in a series of flashbacks from the points of view of Libby’s mother, Patty, and her brother, Ben, Libby is forced to revisit that fateful day and begins to question what exactly she saw – or didn’t see – the night of the tragedy.
Directed by Gilles Paquet-Brenner, DARK PLACES opens on April 8 in France.
