Michael Fassbender to topline “Light Between Oceans” novel adaptation

PanARMENIAN.Net - Michael Fassbender is in negotiations to star in The Light Between Oceans, DreamWorks' adaptation of the M.L. Stedman novel, The Hollywood Reporter said.

Derek Cianfrance, who last directed the Ryan Gosling drama The Place Beyond the Pines, is directing the drama. The Light Between Oceans is set on an island off the coast of Western Australia after World War I.

A lighthouse keeper and his wife find a 2-month-old girl and a dead body in a rowboat and decide to raise the baby as their own. But what seems like a blessing soon turns tragic, as morality and love are tested.

A shoot in Australia is being eyed.

Fassbender next stars as Magneto in X-Men: Days of Future Past, which is getting rave reviews.
