Michelle Yeoh has signed for a pair of films. She’ll first star with Sean Bean and Michelle Krusiec in True North. Asif Kapadia (The Return) directs the $10 million drama financed by Film Four and other equity investors.

Yeoh will then star alongside Vin Diesel in Babylon A.D. for Fox and Canal Plus, with shooting to begin in November.

True North, which begins shooting this week in Norway, is about a woman and a young girl whose barren existence is disrupted by a soldier.

Mathieu Kassovitz will direct Babylon A.D. from his script. Diesel had previously been set for the $60 million adaptation of the Maurice Dantec genetic manipulation novel “Babylon Babies.”

Yeoh will play a nun who becomes caretaker to a young girl who might have been injected with a deadly virus.
