"Exploring identity through cinema" is about as broad a remit as you can get away with, but any event featuring Brian Blessed, Mike Hodges and Paddy Considine is always welcome. They'll be talking about their careers and looking back on old favourites. There are new films, including a Kent fruit-picking mystery (Strawberry Fields) and a Korean supernatural thriller (Haunters). But the main draw is an eclectic mix of films such as Oss 117: Cairo Nest Of Spies, Rupert Everett zombie movie Dellamorte Dellamore and Bogart noir classic In A Lonely Place.

Like it or not, filmmaking is undeniably a director's medium. It wasn't always like that, of course: it was only the coming of the auteur theory in the 1950s and 1960s that popularized the idea of the director as the person responsible for all that was great and terrible about a picture. And while anyone who's worked in film knows that it's a collaborative medium, there's still no better way of seeing where the form might be going in the next few years than by looking at the directors who've been making splashes of late.
So, hot on the heels of our On The Rise pieces focusing on actors, actresses and screenwriters, we've picked out ten directors who've arrived in a big way in the last year or so, and look set for even greater things in the near future. Any tips of your own? Let us know in the comments section below. »

In her young career as an actress Chloe Moretz has played both a vampire and a werewolf. She's now in negotiations to play a zombie in a film called Maggie. So it looks like she will complete the monster movie trifecta. Paddy Considine is also in talks to join the film project.
The film will be directed by commercial director Henry Hobson from a Black List script written by John Scott. According to Variety the film is set against the backdrop of a zombie apocalypse, and the "story concerns a father's unconditional love for his daughter." Considine would play the father, and Moretz would play his zombie daughter. There's no other details on the story, but I imagine the dad will be trying to keep her zombie daughter safe, and keep her out of trouble. Or hell! Maybe they're both zombies and he's still trying to take care of her. »

Chloe Moretz has been keeping busy lately, clearly determined to separate herself from the rest of the child acting pact. She’s played a hit-girl, a vampire and gun-slinging teenager.
The young actress is in negotiations to play a zombie opposite in Maggie, a film which tells of a father (Paddy Considine) living in a zombie apocalypse who stills loves his daughter (Moretz) even though she is a zombie [Variety].
Interesting twist to a quickly-tiring subgenre. Considine played an oddly similar role in Jim Sheridan’s brilliant In America, while Moretz seems to be enjoying playing a little crazy, as she’s also in line to star alongside Julianne Moore as the titular telekinetic in a Carrie remake.
Henry Hobson, a commercial director, is set to make his feature debut, working with a budget around of $10 million. The film will sell at Cannes and is set to begin production in September. »

Pop quiz, hotshot: it’s the zombie apocalypse, civilization as we know it has fallen, and to top it off, your 16-year old daughter Maggie just got bit and is slowly turning into a zombie. What do you do? What do you Do? Well, if you’re Paddy Considine, then you love her unconditionally anyway. Without, you know, letting her bite you, that is. That’s the premise of screenwriter John Scott’s “Maggie”, which is set “against the backdrop of a zombie apocalypse.” Inferno Entertainment is currently selling the film in Cannes, and is looking at ever-busy teen Chloe Moretz to play the titular young girl who is slowly but surely succumbing to her undead, er “condition”. Considine is also in talks to play the father, with commercial director Henry Hobson set to make his feature film debut on the picture. “Maggie” surfaced last year, with “Wanted” director Timur Bekmambetov »

Chloe Moretz is shaping up to be your go-to gal … for horror!
The "Let Me In" star is taking out her vampire fangs (such as they were) and applying some zombie makeup as she's in talks to play the undead title role in "Maggie," according to Variety.
"Maggie" takes place upon the aftermath of the zombie apocalypse and focuses on a father's unconditional love for his daughter, whom we assume has "turned." Moretz would be joining Paddy Considine ("Submarine"), who is in talks to play dear old dad.
Chloe Moretz is definitely feeling right at home in the horror genre lately. After her acclaimed turn as a vampire in "Let Me In," she went on to score a role in Tim Burton's "Dark Shadows" and also recently signed on to play the title role in the upcoming remake of "Carrie." Upcoming non-horror outings include "The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea, »
