Noomi Rapace boards Last Voyage Of Demeter
Teams with Ben Kinglsey on horror thriller
Noomi Rapace has had a handful of projects chucked in her direction ever since she headed off to the States , but reports are now coming in that she has joined Dracula-inspired boat horror The Last Voyage Of Demeter .
Based on a chapter out of Bram Stoker’s classic tome, the film follows the titular ship which transported Dracula’s coffin from Transylvania to England, and ran aground in Whitby after a savage storm.
Rapace will reportedly play a stowaway on the ship, while Ben Kingsley will also have a role. Another lead part is currently searching for an actor.
Directed by The Counterfeiters ’ Stefan Ruzowitzky, Demeter certainly sounds like a fascinating prospect – especially if it sticks to the original story, which saw the ship being discovered with no soul alive onboard.
For Rapace, who’s got a role in Sherlock Holmes 2 , and is in discussions regarding Hansel And Gretel , Mission: Impossible IV and the Alien prequels , world domination is just around the corner.
