Tagline: Love possesses us.
Possession is a psychological thriller starring Sarah Michelle Gellar and Lee Pace. The film is based on the 2002 South Korean film Addicted. It was originally known as Addicted and while news of the name change emerged in early August 2007, it was mid December before it was confirmed by the producers with Sarah Michelle Gellar not being sure of its name in the intervening period.
Sarah Michelle Gellar stars as Jess, a woman whose life is torn apart when her husband, Ryan (Michael Landes), and brother-in-law, Roman (Lee Pace), crash in a horrific car accident. Both brothers end up in comas, with little hope of recovery. But Roman wakes up and, when he does, insists he is her husband. As time goes on, Jess struggles with the possibility that the spirit of her beloved husband has returned to her in the body of her brother-in-law, or that something much more sinister is at work.
The film is set in San Francisco, however it was filmed in Vancouver, British Columbia. The film is funded and will be distributed by Yari Film Group (YFG).
