Oscar-winner Morgan Freeman, Kate Mara and Laurence Fishburne are set to star in The Little Bedroom, the English-language remake of the 2010 Swiss film La Petite Chambre.
Sierra/Affinity are launching sales on the project and will be introducing it to buyers at the European Film Market in Berlin.
Stéphanie Chuat and Véronique Reymond, the writer-director duo for whom the 2010 film was their directorial debut, will return to write and direct the remake, which is described as a “story life and hope but mainly of the heart.” Gary Foster and Russ Krasnoff will produce via the Krasnoff/Foster Entertainment banner along with Vega Film, which produced the original.
The Little Bedroom follows John, whose heart has weakened with age, but still beats with a stubborn independence. He refuses to entertain his son Michael’s plan of settling him in a retirement home, nor will he accept help from Rose, his home nurse.
