Actress E Ji-ah will have Hollywood debut as a screenwriter through her screenplay “Conscious Perception,” her agency HB Entertainment said on Friday.
E signed a contract last year with Maybach Film Productions, an L.A.-based independent film production firm, for three screenplays, the star agency told reporters.
“Conscious Perception (working title)” is one of the three screenplays for Maybach. The film is a mystery that portrays a technologically advanced future where one can read and manipulate others’ minds.
The mystery will allegedly start production next year, costing about 10 billion won. The director and casting of the movie remains undecided.

The actress sent shockwaves nationwide two years ago with the news of her nine-year secret marriage and subsequent divorce from singer Seo Taiji.
