He has been working on his most recent film for sometime now. It is called The Way back and it has a really good cast to boot. The film stars Jim Sturgess, Ed Harris, Colin Farrell, Saoirse Ronan.

The film is based on the novel The Long Walk by Slavomir Rawicz. It tells the story of an escape from a Siberian labor camp in 1940 seven courageous multi national prisoners discover the true meaning of friendship as their epic journey takes them across thousands of miles of hostile terrain en route to India and their freedom.
