Bae Doo Na To Make Sci-Fi Magic With The Wachowkis

Actress Bae Doo Na will be collaborating with The Wachowkis for the upcoming drama series Sense 8.

The sci-fi drama is set to be filmed at the MBC headquarters this month, according to the Korean publication Naver.

"The MBC headquarters located in Sangam is being chosen as the shooting location for various Hollywood movies and dramas," stated the director of MBC, Kim Yunsup.

Sense 8 will reportedly be based on the events that occur after eight people from different backgrounds are connected through the means of telepathy. The series will be made public via Netflix.

Bae Doo Na has previously worked with The Wachowkis for major Hollywood films, including "Cloud Atlas" and "Jupiter Ascending," according to the media outlet We Got This Covered.

Bae Doo Na has been making headlines with her official break into Hollywood as well as her roles in critically acclaimed Korean films. She recently made an appearance at the Cannes film festival where her film "Girl At My Door" was selected for the Cannes' Un Certain Regard section, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

"I'm so happy to be returning to Cannes with a Korean film. The last time I was there for a Japanese piece. I'm truly grateful for the invitation, because my colleagues and I really threw ourselves -- our mind and body -- into the film," stated Bae.

Despite her break into the entertainment industry in both Japan and the U.S., Bae Duna had revealed that she still focuses on working on films in Korea.

"Being exposed to different production environments in Korea, Japan and the U.S. was a great experience, and each system allows you to quench your thirst in a different way. I'm not partial to any system, but at the same time I'm a Korean actor so I expect to work mainly on Korean projects," explained the 35-year-old actress.
