Nyqvist Flies With The Seagull

Michael Nyqvist is joining the modern re-telling of Anton Chekhov's play "The Seagull" says Variety.


The story is set in rural New England where reckless desire wreaks havoc over Memorial Day weekend as a family confronts the volatile and fragile nature of love.

Nyqvist plays the jovial estate caretaker.

Katie Holmes, William Hurt, Allison Janney, Russell Means, Jean Reno, Mark Rylance and Juliet Rylance also star.

Christian Camargo, best known as the homicidal brother of the title character in the cable series "Dexter", will make his directorial debut on the pic which he has adapted.

Rylance and Barbara Romer will produce.

Production begins next month in Connecticut.
