Telepathic times for Murphy and Press

May 22 2006
Cillian Murphy and Nathalie Press have signed up to star in the forthcoming sci-fi feature 'Telepathy'.
The two stars, currently enjoying success in Cannes (Murphy with 'The Wind that Shakes the Barley' and Press with 'Red Road'), will start work on the film in October, with TV helmer Lesley Manning on directing duties.
Scripted by Stephen Volk ('Gothic', 'Octane'), the film tells the story of estranged identical twin brothers Josef and Viktor Zalenski.
Reunited by the Russian government, they become the subject of top secret telepathic experiments in an effort to establish contact with outer space.
