Funding has been secured for Circles and filming is predicted to start later this 12 months. Selection doesn’t point out who can be directing the movie.
Circle was stated to be “an intense real-time thriller which uniquely examines humanity under the worst possible circumstances.” I’ll be trustworthy: if I had ever heard of the film earlier than this Circles announcement made its approach out into the world, I had utterly forgotten about it. I’ve positively by no means seen it – however because it apparently has a cult following, I’m glad its followers are going to have the possibility to see a sequel.
