Natalie Dormer in Game Of Thrones<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p>

Natalie Dormer’s meteoric rise continues as the star of Game Of Thrones<\/em><\/strong> and The Hunger Games<\/em><\/strong> has signed on to lead Patient Zero<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Deadline<\/a> reports that Dormer will star in the film which “focuses on an unprecedented global pandemic that causes the evolution of a new species. An aggressive form of rabies turns the infected into predators, addicted to violence. An inexplicably gifted human survivor with the ability to speak the new mutant language leads a hunt for Patient Zero and hope for a cure.”<\/p>\n

The last few years have seen Dormer make some excellent choices and build an impressive CV, including non-genre projects like Rush<\/em><\/strong> and Elementary<\/em><\/strong> (oh, and let’s not forget that she played Door in the Neverwhere<\/em><\/strong> audio book. Oh, and The Fades<\/strong><\/em>). With such attention grabbing roles as Margaery Tyrell and Cressida, it was only a matter of time before her first big lead role and it looks like this is it.<\/p>\n

Patient Zero<\/em><\/strong> is directed by Stefan Ruzowitzky (The Counterfeiter<\/em>s<\/em><\/strong>, Anatomie<\/em><\/strong>) and written by Mike Le.<\/p>\n

You can buy The Fades<\/em> on DVD for £6.49 at Amazon.co.uk<\/a>. Keep up with the latest genre news with the new issue of SciFiNow<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
