The Ghost Writer: Polanski is Back

Share      

Based on the novel The Ghost by Robert Harris, Roman Polanski's newest thriller stars Ewan McGregor as the titular ghost writer who is hired to finish the memoirs of a former British Prime Minister after the first writer mysteriously drowns. Despite his misgivings, McGregor's nameless character signs on to the project, only to find himself in a far more complicated and dangerous situation than he could have imagined. Pierce Brosnan is the British PM, Adam Lang, while Kim Cattrall plays his aide Amelia and Olivia Williams his wife Ruth in this twisty mystery.

The Ghost Writer is being distributed by Summit Entertainment, and will open in New York City and Los Angeles on February 19. It will open in select cities around the country on February 26.

Take a peek at these three new photos from the movie, and the trailer as well. You can get more information about the movie on the official site or the official Facebook page.
