Ellen Page to lead “The Third Wave” David Freyne dramaMay 18, 2016 - 12:14 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Ellen Page will lead a unique zombie project from writer-director David Freyne, TheWrap reveals. Page will produce and star in “The Third Wave”, a drama that imagines humanity ravaged by a disease that turns the population into zombies. Years later, however, a cure is found and the planet recovers — but those affected are haunted by their behavior while contaminated. Irish actor Sam Keeley (“In The Heart of the Sea”) will co-star with Page. Physical production is set for late 2016 in the Emerald Isle. “The Third Wave brings an entire new perspective to the zombie genre, which I love,” Page said in a statement. “David Freyne truly shifts his lens on society’s role in the apocalyptic world. I’m so grateful for this opportunity to share his thoughtful approach to horror with audiences.” Freyne marks his feature directorial debut with the project, based on his proof-of-concept short “The First Wave.” Tilted Pictures’ Rachael O’Kane and Rory Dungan also produce. Bounder & Cad’s Mark Huffam and Aidan Elliott, and Bac Film’s Mathieu Robinet and David Grumbach will co-produce. The Irish Film Board and Bac Films will finance.
