BEIJING, Jan. 13 (UPI) -- Kevin Spacey has signed up to star in Dayyan Eng's black comedy "Inseparable," which is to begin shooting this month in China, the film's producers said.
The announcement was made Wednesday by Xinhua Sports & Entertainment Limited, a sports and entertainment media company in China.
Spacey is best known for his Oscar-winning performances in "The Usual Suspects" and "American Beauty."
His latest project is being principally financed by Fantawild Pictures. It co-stars Daniel Wu and Beibi Gong.
"'Inseparable' marks the first time an award-winning actor of Mr. Spacey's caliber and international renown has starred in a Chinese production," the company said in a news release. "The film to be shot in Mandarin and English follows a young man with problems at home and work who is befriended by a mysterious American expat who changes his life."
"Fantawild Pictures and XSEL are leading the way in the Chinese film entertainment sector by being the first to bring a two-time Academy Award-winning actor to a Chinese production," Fredy Bush, chief executive officer of XSEL, said in a statement. "We are proud to be a part of the team that shows a global audience that China can produce more than just period dramas and martial-arts pictures."
