According to The Film Stage, Elle star Isabelle Huppert has signed on to star in Siberia, the latest project from controversial filmmaker Abel Ferrara (The Driller Killer, Bad Lieutenant), and will be joined in the cast by Nicolas Cage and Willem Dafoe.
Last year, Ferrara launched a Kickstarter for Sibera, where the project was described as “a subjective and objective journey into the subconscious… [exploring] the language of dreams, myth and the natural world” – but failed to meet his $50,000 goal.
Ferrara’s most recently film Pasolini was released in 2014, and saw Willem Dafoe in the lead role.
