Brosnan to star in ‘Vanilla Gorilla’ adventure

Pierce Brosnan has announced that he is to star in an adventure film about a gorilla.

The Bond star, 54, will shoot Vanilla Gorilla next month, prior to starting work on the sequel to his 1999 movie The Thomas Crown Affair.

He wrote on his website: “Before I set sail with the second installment of TC2… I’m off to South Africa to make Vanilla Gorilla, an adventure film about an albino gorilla that has the capacity to speak through sign language.

“It’s the story of a father and daughter who find themselves on an adventure of a lifetime, as they try to restructure their relationship after the loss of their mother/wife.”
