Neil Jordan will direct Saoirse and Gemma Arterton in vampire ‘Byzantium’

Is Saoirse Ronan the latest young talent to be cloned so that she can be attached to many projects at once? That appears to be the case. She’s already scheduled for The Host, may be in Joe Wright’s Anna Karenina and Emma Thompson’s Effie, and the latest is a film called Byzantium, a ‘mother-daughter’ vampire tale co-starring Gemma Arterton that Neil Jordan will direct.

The news is that the film is based on an original script by Moira Buffini, who scripted the recent version of Jane Eyre, and is about “a mother vampire who turns her own daughter into a vampire and the pair form a lethal partnership, sometimes posing as sisters.” The script is based on her own play A Vampire Story, and we reported on the play-to-film conversion back in 2009.

Neil Jordan, of course, got in on the vampire craze before there was a vampire craze, directing Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt and a then-unknown Kirsten Dunst in the not-so-great Anne Rice adaptation Interview With the Vampire. He was also ahead of the current fairy tale craze with The Company of Wolves in 1984. In fact, this film will be produced by The Company of Woolves producer Stephen Wooley.

Stephenie Meyer’s ‘The Host’ Lands Saoirse Ronan To Star

Box office darling Saoirse Ronan has closed a deal to star in The Host, the film adaptation of Stephenie Meyer’s novel of the same name.

Inferno Entertainment will begin shopping the project to foreign buyers at the Cannes film market, which gets underway May 11.

Ronan is currently in theaters with Focus Features’ smart thriller Hanna, which has grossed more than $36 million so far at the domestic box.

Meyer’s name — along with the success of Hanna and Ronan’s performance — should lead to brisk foreign presales for Inferno and Host producers Nick Wechsler and Steve and Paula Mae Schwartz. Host reteams Inferno and the latter two producers, the team behind Brad Pitt starrer Cogan’s Trade, which is now in post.

In The Host, Ronan will play the title character Melanie Stryder, who fights daringly against aliens — a.k.a. The Souls — who have taken over Earth.

Ronan, the Oscar-nominated star of Atonement, The Lovely Bones and most recently Hanna, will play Melanie Stryder, one of the last humans putting up a fight against an alien species called Souls. These parasites invade human bodies, fuse to each person’s consciousness and systematically erase their personalities. Melanie is captured by the aliens and implanted by a Soul called Wanderer, something of a legend because of all of the “hosts” she has attached to on numerous planets. Wanderer’s goal is to get Melanie to give up the remaining pockets of humans, but instead the alien finds Melanie to be unique in her unwillingness to surrender her consciousness. Wanderer is so overwhelmed by Melanie’s memories and feelings, the alien is driven to reconnect with Melanie’s old life.
