Australia will supply the locations for “Unbroken, a World War II” drama, marking Angelina Jolie’s second foray behind the camera.
The actress-director will shoot her follow-up to 2011′s “Land of Blood” and “Honey in Sydney” and parts of rural New South Wales.
Based on the book by Laura Hillenbrand, “Unbroken” tells of Louis Zamperini, the Olympian runner-turned-bombardier who spent two years as a prisoner of war after being shot down in the Pacific.
“Skins” star Jack O’Connell will play Zamperini in a cast that also includes Garrett Hedlund and Domhnall Gleeson.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, the film will start filming on October 21 at Sydney’s Fox Studios Australia and the Village Roadshow Studios on the Gold Coast.
