Principal photography is underway in Toronto for Pontypool, a new film from director Bruce McDonald (Highway 61, Roadkill and recently, The Tracey Fragments, with Ellen Page). "It is set in a radio station in Pontypool and our morning team took reports in of extreme and bloody incidents of violence. The reason for this violence is that the English language has become infected with a virus," McDonald tells 680 News in an interview. From a script by Tony Burgess, the film stars Stephen McHattie, Daniel Fathers, Georgina Reilly and Beatriz Yuste. The great news is that Pontypool should be ready in time to debut at the Toronto International Film Festival, hopefully we'll catch it if it screens.
