Swann Arlaud, Woody Norman, Ruaridh Mollica and Alma Pöysti to Star in ‘Sukkwan Island’ Film Adaptation From Haut Et Court (EXCLUSIVE)


Swann Arlaud, Woody Norman, Ruaridh Mollica, Alma Pöysti will star in 'Sukkwan Island,' a film based on the David Vann novella.

Ruaridh Mollica, who turned heads in this year’s Sundance following his lead turn in “Sebastian,” and Alma Pöysti, who was recently Golden Globe-nominated for Aki Kaurismäki’s “Fallen Leaves,” will also star in the film, being directed by Vladimir de Fontenay, marking the French filmmaker’s first feature since his Cannes-bowing “Mobile Homes” in 2017. Paris-based banner Haut et Court, which has owned the rights to the book for a decade, is producing the English-language feature, and has drawn on support from other members of pan-European production alliance The Creatives. Alongside Haut et Court, co-producers on the project include Maipo Film (Norway), Versus Production (Belgium), Good Chaos (U.K.) and Aurora Studios (Finland).
