In recent news, it seems the lovely Natalie Dormer who portrays the mischievous Margaery Tyrell will be taking some time away from the small screen to film another movie. But, don’t worry, she’ll be back on Game of Thrones still plotting against Cersei Lannister as we’ve seen these past few seasons.

According to moviefone:

Natalie Dormer has signed on her first starring role, and it sounds awesome. Dormer will star in “The Forest,” which is about a woman who goes searching for her twin in Japan’s infamous Aokigahara Forest.

Sounds interesting enough…if she’s searching for her twin, will she play the twin too? Double the Dormer? Guess we’ll find out but this is where it gets interesting…and creepy. I don’t know much about Japanese culture or the land itself but MovieFone further provided information about the forest and what will make this movie an ultimate thriller:

Aokigahar Forest is also known as the Suicide Forest, and it’s one of the most popular places in the world to commit suicide. According to Atlas Obscura, “Japanese spirtualists believe that the suicides committed in the forest have permeated Aokigahara’s trees, generating paranormal activity and preventing many who enter from escaping the forest’s depths. 

Now if that doesn’t sound twisted, I don’t know what does. I had never heard of this forest until now but it sounds interesting. Don’t know if I would want to take a trip through that forest or not but, what I do know, is that it sounds like it will make one heck of a thriller film. Makes me wonder if they are going to film there. I doubt it…especially if the superstition is true.

I love a good horror film and I haven’t seen a good one in a long time so I’m super excited about this. As stated, Natalie Dormer takes the starring role, David Goyer who wrote the “Dark Knight” trilogy and “Batman v Superman” will produce, Sarah Cornwell and Nick Antosca re-wrote the script, and Jason Zada will make his directorial debut. Fun fun!

If you are now putting this on a list of films to see, don’t fret, you can still check out Natalie in GoT season 5 and also in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 in November where she takes on the role as Cressida….super excited about that as well!

I really hope you enjoyed this! What does everyone think? Excited about this film? Excited to see Natalie in something other than GoT? Further, you can check out the rest of the article HERE
