Very Short First Teaser for Roman Polanski’s The Ghost

You might not know (or forgot), but Polish-French director Roman Polanski has been working on a new film titled The Ghost since last year. We wrote about it a few times while it was casting, but that’s about it. Ewan McGregor stars as a ghostwriter hired to complete the memoirs of a former British prime minister played by Pierce Brosnan. This teaser appeared recently on the official website for The Ghost (that I didn’t even know existed until now) found at: theghost-romanpolanski.com. For a 15-second teaser, it looks fantastic, and I’m definitely very interested in seeing more from this. Glad to have Polanski back again.

The Ghost is directed by acclaimed Oscar winning Polish-French filmmaker Roman Polanski, of films like When Angels Fall, Repulsion, Rosemary’s Baby, Chinatown, Frantic, The Ninth Gate, The Pianist, and Oliver Twist most recently. The screenplay was co-written by Polanski and novelist Robert Harris. This is based on Harris’ own novel of the same name. Summit Entertainment is planning on bringing The Ghost to theaters sometime in 2010, although a release date has not been set. We’ll let you know when they set one.
