Elizabeth Olsen and Alicia Vikander have signed on to lead in the upcoming sci-fi drama The Assessment. Olsen and Vikander will reportedly play a couple living in a dystopian future where the world has been destroyed by climate change. Anna Kendrick is also rumored to be in talks to join the cast. It will begin filming next year in Germany.
“Set in a world destroyed by climate change,” reads the synopsis. “Part of society has created a parallel world for itself. Life is controlled and optimized, and the desire to have children is also not left to chance. The lives of a successful young couple are therefore put under close scrutiny by a female assessor over the course of seven days.”
