Epic: Matthew Macfadyen Lines up For Ben Hopkins' Epic

Screen Daily has given us far more details about Epic including the following:

  • The cast is led by Matthew Macfadyen, MyAnna Buring, and Noah Taylor
  • Shooting begins this Sunday in Georgia's capital, Tbilisi
  • The shoot will be on location in Frankfurt for one week
  • "It’s comedy about globalisation and nation-building, sex and art, money-laundering and love," said Ben Hopkins, “In the case of Epic, reality is absurd, credibility is ridiculous, and authenticity is hilarious. And all set in a fictitious country, that could be one of any number of post Soviet satellite states.”
  • Looking to release the film for the 2014 festival cycle
