Anne Hathaway to Star in the Monster Movie COLOSSAL

Anne Hathaway ("Les Miserables") has signed on to star in the sci-fi film "Colossal". Written and directed by Nacho Vigalondo ("The ABCs of Death"), the film tells the story of Gloria (Hathaway), a woman who, after losing her job and fiancé, discovers that she shares an unusual mental link with events occuring in Tokyo, where a giant lizard is destroying the city. Honestly, when is Tokyo not being destroyed by some gigantic creature ? Gloria is forced to discover how her seemingly insignificant existence has such a colossal effect on the fate of the world.

The film is being described as "Godzilla" meets "Being John Malkovich". I wonder how that will work out. Here's what Vigalondo had to say about the movie:

"Colossal is my most ambitious script so far, and probably also the most personal one. Having Anne and this terrific team around goes beyond my craziest expectations."
