Et est-ce que vous avez eu votre mot à dire sur le choix des comédiens?C’est un casting incroyable: Gary Oldman, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Noomi Rapace, Tom Hardy, Charles Dance… Ce sont quelques-uns des meilleurs acteurs qui travaillent aujourd’hui et de les avoir tous ensemble va être extraordinaire.

the pitch : Based on the first of a trilogy by Tom Rob Smith and set in the Stalin era of the Soviet Union. The plot is about an idealistic pro-Stalin security officer who decides to investigate a series of child murders in a country where supposedly this sort of crime doesn't exist. The state would not hear of the existence of a child murderer let alone a serial killer. He gets demoted and exiled but decides, with just the help of his wife, to continue pursuing the case.

Filming dates: 10 June - 19 September 2013
