Clearly not content with already gearing up a sequel to his 2005 Nicolas Cage-starring Lord Of War (with Cage back and Bill Skarsgård. joining the fun), writer/director Andrew Niccol is setting up another film. And he has quite the cast aboard, nabbing a pack of New Zealand talents including Melanie Lynskey, Karl Urban, Jemaine Clement and Thomasin McKenzie ready in/with regard to’concerning’regarding I, Object.###With Niccol writing and directing, the film follows 10-year-old Tom, who’s grieving the loss of his father and, unable to relate to the individual in his life, takes refuge in the eintensely’extremely’extraordinarily’enormously’awfullyday objects around him. Drinks can lids, suitcases and untold numbers of eintensely’extremely’extraordinarily’enormously’awfullyday objects reveal their true faces and speak to Tom, helping him on his healing journey.###It all sounds quite Pixar in nature, but we're expecting Niccol to give it a twist.
