New images from The Ghost Writer
Roman Polanski’s latest feature, The Ghost Writer, is really chugging along with their marketing as Summit Entertainment releases three new production stills from the upcoming movie. Not only are those available to view, but the official website and the official Facebook page have just been launched for everyone to see and join up on.
The Ghost (Ewan McGregor) flies out to work on the project, in the middle of winter, to an oceanfront house on an island off the U.S. Eastern seaboard. But the day after he arrives, a former British cabinet minister accuses Lang (Pierce Brosnan) of authorizing the illegal seizure of suspected terrorists and handing them over for torture by the CIA—a war crime. The controversy brings reporters and protesters swarming to the island mansion where Lang is staying with his wife, Ruth (Olivia Williams), and his personal assistant (and mistress), Amelia (Kim Cattrall). As The Ghost works, he begins to uncover clues suggesting his predecessor may have stumbled on a dark secret linking Lang to the CIA—and that somehow this information is hidden in the manuscript he left behind. Was Lang in the service of the American intelligence agency while he was prime minister? And was The Ghost’s predecessor murdered because of the appalling truth he uncovered?
The Ghost Writer comes out in theaters in New York and Los Angeles on February 19th with an expanded release on February 26th.:
