Rogue Pictures Presents THE UNBORN Now Playing
Brad Anderson’s Transsiberian Update
Posted by Kurt Halfyard at 8:00pm.
Posted in Film News , Thriller, USA & Canada.
Brad Anderson’s new film Transsiberian may be giving a bit off a feel of Richard Fleisher’s The Narrow Margin, but that is a good thing. Here is the new one sheet.
The film has acquired a fine international cast including the always superb Samantha Morton, occasionally spotty Ben Kingsley, totally random Woody Harleson, Spanish superstar Eduardo Noriega, and solid East German character actor Thomas Kretschmann.
“Transsiberian is a thriller set on the legendary train that links the Far East and Europe, running from China and Mongolia to Russia. Roy and Jessie discover that the days of the Transsiberian’s glorious luxury have faded since the fall of the USSR. The famous train’s former glamour has disappeared, leaving cold steel carriages and fellow passengers, reputed to include drug traffickers. They take refuge in the company of a fellow western couple who arrive in their shared compartment, Carlos and Abby, who travel throughout the world giving language classes and re-selling handcraft, such as, on this occasion, Russian “Matryoshka” dolls.”
Filming starts in northern Europe and Asia in mid-December.

Previous Twitch Article #2 describes Transsiberian using Anderson’s own words: “A thriller in the vein of Dead Calm except all the action goes down on a train instead of boat.”
Brad Anderson’s Nomad Films website has a different teaser one-sheet for the film.
