Orange Studio has boarded Planet B, an ambitious female-driven science fiction thriller headlined by Adèle Exarchopoulos (Blue Is the Warmest Color, The Stronghold) and Souheila Yacoub (Dune : Part Two, Climax).

The movie, which will shoot in English and French, will be directed by Aude Léa Rapin and English with filming set to kick off in March.

The film follows Julia, one of the activists who mysteriously disappeared after participating in a violent protest. After being shot in the eye by a flash-ball gun, Julia fainted and woke up in an unknown world, known as Planet B.

Planet B is widely entertaining and has a great concept, but it’s also a crossover film with an auteur behind it”, said Boucon.
