Ben Briand’s feature debut Fever Heart wins over Hollywood A-listers

AUSSIE director Ben Briand has cast Alexander Skarsgard and Cara Delevingne to star in his feature film debut, Fever Heart.

Known for a string of award winning short films, Briand will begin shooting the “gothic road movie” over the coming months and is currently scouting locations for the film, most likely to be the US or Canada.


Ben Briand’s first feature film Fever Heart has already got two of the biggest stars in Hollywood on-board. Picture: Britta Campion.

“To be honest, there was a lot of buzz around the material and people were really responding to the script,” Briand, 36, told Confidential.

“Alexander Skarsgard’s people read the script and he loved it, we met and it just happened. Cara and I have been chatting over quite a number of months and she also really responded to the strength and depth of the character.”

The project is being produced by Matt Dooley, who went to UNSW College of Fine Arts with Briand, and Margot Hands’ Picture Films.


Briand has been talking to Cara Delevingne for months to get her on-board for the film.

Michele Bennett, who was behind Chopper, The Magician and Drift, is billed as executive producer on the film.

Fever Heart is a mystic supernatural thriller that tells the story of an amnesiac struggling to recover lost memories while on the run from a tracker.

“Skarsgard was perfect to play the lead and his character teams up with a quick witted circus sharp shooter that Cara is playing.

“It has very much got elements of couple on the run thriller, true romance. Think Bonnie and Clyde.”


Alexander Skarsgard is one of the hottest stars in Hollywood at the moment.

The significance of landing two of Hollywood’s hottest stars in Skarsgard and Delevingne isn’t lost on Briand.

“The process of the film so far has been six years to get to this point,” he said.

Briand has previously directed seven short films, most notably Apricot and Blood Pulls A Gun, which won him the best emerging filmmaker award at the Melbourne International Film Festival.

He is also known for directing TV commercials for the likes of Qantas, David Jones and Schweppes.

Joel will be filming Altered Carbon in Vancouver until June/July. Maybe if we are fortunate we can see some cafe candids of the Alex and Joel.

Cara of course played Enchantress in Suicide Squad, Rick Flag's lover, played by Joel. Joel has spent a most of his career filming in Vancouver. Maybe he can give Alex some apartment tips.

Thanks for the update! Maybe Gustaf would like to spend time with his brother and best friend in Vancouver and we will get candids of the three of them. And Bill will join them too of course, since he and Gustaf seem to be best friends. Fingers crossed

Alex filmed Hidden in Vancouver back in late summer 2012, so it's not completely new to him. I hope that he and Joel at least get to spend some time together. Having Gustaf and Bill there would be even better.

[wanderingstar78]

Are there any updates on this movie, or should I close this thread? IMDB says it's in pre-production, but the page was last updated in 2017.

[em666]

Close it, there's no indication this is happening.

[wanderingstar78]

Done!
