24 Frames are reporting that renowned South Korean filmmaker Park Chan-wook (Oldboy) is in talks to direct Stoker.

Stoker, a film written by Wentworth Miller, currently has Jodie Foster (Panic Room) and Carey Mulligan (An Education) attached to star, and centers on a young woman whose eccentric uncle comes back into her life after the death of her father.

Ridley Scott was previously linked to the project, but – likely due to the amount he has on his slate at the moment – backed out.
