So we’ve been reporting on Ryan Gosling’s directorial and writing debut with his new film How to Catch a Monster, which has newly been titled Lost River. The cast includes Matt Smith (Doctor Who), Christina Hendricks (Mad Men), Iain De Caestecker (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.), Saoirse Ronan (The Host), Eva Mendes (The Place Beyond the Pines), and Ben Mendelsohn (The Dark Knight Rises). Here’s the synopsis, followed by the first two images from the film.

[Lost River] weaves elements of fantasy noir, horror and suspense into a modern day fairytale. Set against the surreal dreamscape of a vanishing city, Billy (Christina Hendricks), a single mother of two, is swept into a macabre and dark fantasy underworld while Bones (Iain De Caestecker), her 18-yr-old son, discovers a secret road leading to an underwater town. Both Billy and Bones must dive deep into the mystery, if their family is to survive.
