She also appears in the forthcoming Wild Child for Working Title. Imogen Poots appeared 28 Weeks Later and Maria Valverde starred in La Flaqueza del bolchevique.
Guy Collins, chairman of HandMade Films International said 'Jordan is a very exciting director to be working with and has been instrumental in securing a wonderfully strong and commercial cast.'
The film, which shoots for seven weeks, is about a girls' boarding school in 1935 England. The students have a special bond with their charismatic teacher Miss G, until a beautiful foreign student upsets the status quo.
