Julianne Moore In New Atom Egoyan’s Movie Chloe
Julianne Moore, Liam Neeson and Amanda Seyfried probably will star in new movie from “Chloe” which will be directed by Atom Egoyan (”Adoration“) and financed by StudioCanal.
The screenplay was written by Erin Cressida Wilson.
In the film, Julianne Moore thinks her husband (Liam Neeson) has been unfaithful. To figure this out, she employs a female escort (Amanda Seyfried) to try and make him stray. This has very negative effects on her family.
Producing will be Ivan Reitman and Tom Pollock through their Montecito Picture Company.
Shooting starts on February 9, 2009 in Toronto.
Atom Egoyan’s ‘Adoration’ In Competition – Cannes Film Festival
Atom Egoyan’s Adoration, accepted for this year’s Cannes Film Festival, is a return to the more intimate, lower-budget kind of films he made in the past.
It marks a scaling back from his 2005 effort, ‘Where the Truth Lies‘, because it’s a very different kind of story, Egoyan told CBC Radio’s Q cultural affairs show.
“Where the Truth Lies is a lavish production that needed a much bigger budget to tell that particular story and it’s about an American celebrity. This is about a Canadian high school in Toronto and it’s very much set in locations people in this city will recognize,” Egoyan said in an interview from Toronto.
The Canadian director, whose Cannes track record includes films such as ‘The Sweet Hereafter‘, ‘Exotica‘ and ‘Ararat‘, was thrilled Wednesday after hearing ‘Adoration’ had been accepted.
“Its always an honour. It’s a really tough list to make,” he said.
“It’s an important step for me because it’s an important film for me. It’s a film that can only be made in this country right now. Unlike other movies which are funded in a byzantine, strange way, it’s very much part of this particular system. It’s a film that is really taking a number of risks and I’m really proud of it.”
