Even though I am legitimately excited about this just-announced project what, you thought I wouldn't go right for the dirty joke in my headline? You don't know me at all. Anyway yes it's true -- Theo James is set to star in a movie titled The Hole. The jokes they write themselves. But we should only joke a little because the movie will be directed by I Saw the Devil and A Tale of Two Sisters director Kim Jee-Woon, one of the great voices in South Korean cinema, and it's based on an award-winning novel (of the same name) that has a terrific Misery-like premise to it. Theo plays a man who moves to South Korea with his South Korean wife, only for them to get into a terrible car accident, killing the wife. As he's recuperating in the home of his South Korean mother-in-law's house she starts to uncover that he might not have been a good husband to her daughter, and yadda yadda you can expect things to go pretty south from there. South... towards The Hole! That sounds good, right? Anyway I am happy that Theo is making some horror-type movies at this stage in his career -- you might recall that he's also the lead in Longlegs director Oz Perkins' next movie The Monkey...
