South Korean actress Doona Bae's role is said to be "very small" in the pic No details have emerged on whom Redmayne, Booth, and Middleton will play. Middleton and Bean worked before on Cleanskin with the Wachowskis

The Wachowski's will write, direct and produce the film

Shooting is underway in London ahead of a release on July 25, 2014.
