David Cronenberg Takes On 'London Fields'

London Fields
David Cronenberg is attached to direct London Fields, based on Martin Amis' 1991 novel of the same name, according to Variety.

Script by Roberta Hanley ("Woundings") and Amis follows a promiscuous psychic troubled by disturbing premonitions that are all the more unnerving for never being wrong. Tale is set in and around a seedy London pub, where the psychic has come to meet the end her dreams have foretold: to be murdered by one of two men she meets there --- but which one?

Cronenberg most recently helmed the 2002 Ralph Fiennes-toplined Spider. A thriller based on Patrick McGrath's novel of the same name, Spider was nommed for the Palme d'Or at Cannes.
