Director James Cameron's long-anticipated follow-up to 'Titanic' will be 20th Century Fox's sci-fi thriller
Battle Angel, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
The feature is set in the 26th century, and takes place 300 years after a societal collapse caused by a major war. In that society, it's a technological dark age following a pinnacle of achievement far beyond where we are right now. Cyborg technology is a way of life. People are augmented a lot as workers, so being a cyborg is not unusual.
The main character is a cyborg. She has an organic human brain, and she looks like she's about fourteen years old. She has a completely artificial body and she's lost her memory. She is found in a wreckage and reconstituted by a cyber-surgeon who becomes her surrogate father.
An open casting call is said to have been placed for the lead actress in the new Cameron film.
The ad calls for female applicants age 16 to mid-20s who are athletic and agile with graceful movement and have an ear for languages and dialects. Submissions are due by December 19th.
