Jamie Chung to star in new indie-drama ‘Eden’

The Hangover II co-star Jamie Chung will be starring next to Scoot McNairy in Eden, an indie-drama to be directed by Megan Griffiths.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, the script is based on a true story of a Korean-American girl who becomes a victim of human trafficking when she is abducted and forced into prostitution. During the two years of her struggle, she carves out her own sphere of influence within the organization holding her captive.

IndieWIRE reports that shooting will begin this August in Seattle and eastern Washington.
