The team behind Michael Radford's Michael Flawless starring Michael Caine and Demi Moore have teamed up with Future Films for Simon Fellows' Malice in Sunderland, a contemporary take on the Lewis Carroll's classic tale Alice in Wonderland, which begins shooting in the New Year.
The film will star Mischa Barton (Attenborough's Closing the Ring, David Leland's Angels and Virgins, "The O.C"), directed by Fellows (7 Seconds, Second in Command) from Jayson Rothwell's script.
Producers Michael Pierce and Mark Williams have struck a deal with Stephen Margolis' London based production/finance entity Future Films taking advantage of Future's ability to not only co-produce and finance, but also help producers negotiate their way through the new tax credit system available for filming in the UK. IAC is handling international sales.
Malice in Sunderland follows a film American student Alice who, having been hit by a London taxi, finds herself disoriented in Sunderland where she ventures through a macabre underworld of characters reminiscent of those made popular in Carroll's tale.
I would love to get Mischa's autograph! I look at this post every day! LOL! I really don't want to miss the chance to get my first VV and from Mischa at that! Please keep us posted with an address in Sunderland if/when available! Thanks guys!

Mischa must really like her privacy. Im trying really hard to find an address in Sunderland for everyone. This is the toughest project I've searched for- no one can help me My last source that could help is the UK Film Council (http://www.ukfilmcouncil.org.uk/informa ... s/contact/) which I have contacted so lets cross our fingers and hope maybe just maybe they may give us something.
