Posted August 13 by Charles in Horror Thriller

Willem Dafoe (Spider-Man) will star with Charlotte Gainsbourg (I’m Not There) in “Antichrist,” which will be directed by Lars von Trier (Dogville). Anders Thomas Jensen (The Duchess) wrote the script with von Trier.

In the psychological thriller that evolves into a horror film, Dafoe and Gainsbourg will play a couple who retreat to an isolated cabin in the woods following the death of their child. While there, they encounter strange, terrifying occurrences.

The picture completed financing its $11 million budget last month and will begin production this month in Germany.
