Keira Knightley, Jude Law and Aaron Johnson In ANNA KARENINA First Look
We’re all familiar with the epic love story – classic novel Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy and many adaptation of the same, right?
But, it would be interesting to see another one adaptation of above mentioned story, only this time directed by Joe Wright from the script by Tom Stoppard.
Joe Wright’s ANNA KARENINA Starring Keira Knightley Official Synopsis
Joe Wright is a man responsible for titles like Pride & Prejudice and Atonement and a director who obviously has some kind of crush on Keira Knightley. Why?
Well, because his upcoming Anna Karenina movie marks their third collaboration!
At this moment Anna Karenina still has no USA release date but at least we have an official synopsis part to share with you!
A Dangerous Method Trailer Starring Michael Fassbender and Viggo Mortensen
Check out the trailer for David Cronenberg‘s new film, “A Dangerous Method”, which stars Michael Fassbender and Viggo Mortensen as Carl Jung and Sigmund Freud, respectively.
Cronenberg once again gathered a prestigious crew to work on A Dangerous Method, director of photography Peter Suschitsky (A History of Violence, Eastern Promises), composer Howard Shore (The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Avatar), editor Ronald Sanders (A History of Violence, Eastern Promises, Coraline), costume designer Denise Cronenberg (A History of Violence, Eastern Promises, The Incredible Hulk) and production designer James McAteer (Good Will Hunting, A History of Violence, The League of Extraordinary Gentleman).
Saoirse Ronan to Join Joe Wright’s Anna Karenina?
Joe Wright‘s adaptation of Anna Karenina is coming, and I’m sure you’re all interested to find out more details about this project. So are we, and today, we’re here for a little update. Or, maybe, just a rumor, but you must admit that it sounds great.
Apparently, Saoirse Ronan, star of Wright’s upcoming Hanna may be joining the cast that already includes Keira Knightley, Aaron Johnson and Jude Law.
Ok, the director declined to confirm the whole thing at the moment but ThompsonOnHollywood, caught up with Working Title’s Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner (the producers of the project), listed Ronan as a possibility as well.
But let me remind you what Wright recently had to say about lovely Ronan:
“I do believe in Saoirse very much. I think she can do anything she sets her mind to, terrifyingly. I was reading a Russian book recently, and I think it was Gogol who contended that belief is a talent, so the reason why the Russians have such extraordinary faith is that they have a massive talent for belief. Well, perhaps the Irish share that talent as Saoirse certainly has an extraordinary talent for it, plus an incredible imagination.”
Keira Knightley and Steve Carell in Seeking a Friend at the End of the World
Here’s something that could be great! Seeking a Friend for the End of the World, remember this title! It could be just another romantic comedy, but Steve Carell and Keira Knightley are in negotiations to star in it, and you must agree that it sounds awesome!
Lorene Scafaria, the writer of Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist is on board to helm the rom-com that will, by the way, mark her directorial debut.
Seeking a Friend at the End of the World takes place “at a time when mankind is forced to absorb the fact that an incoming asteroid will end humanity. Carell plays a man suddenly alone when his wife leaves in a panic. His high school sweetheart writes him saying she wants to be with him when the world stops. His neighbor (Knightley) accompanies him on the road trip as love blooms at the worst possible time.”
Brand New ‘Last Night’ Trailer and Poster
Check out the official poster and trailer for the upcoming romantic drama Last Night.
Synopsis: Set in New York City, Last Night is the story of a married couple that while apart for one night, is confronted by temptation that may decide the fate of their marriage. Joanna (Academy Award(R) nominee Keira Knightley) and Michael Reed (Sam Worthington) are 7 years into a successful and happy relationship. They are moving along in their lives together until Joanna meets Laura (Eva Mendes), the stunningly beautiful work colleague whom Michael never mentioned. While Michael is away with Laura on a business trip, Joanna runs into an old but never quite forgotten love, Alex (Guillaume Canet) and agrees to have drinks with him. As the night progresses and temptation increases for the couple, each must confront who they are inside and outside of their relationship. Last Night is ultimately a film about choices – the choice you make to be with someone, to give yourself physically and emotionally, and how to survive all three.
Director Joe Wright Talks Anna Karenina
English director Joe Wright tells About.com the prospect of shooting Leo Tolstoy’s Anna Karenina is in the fall. And that he got Oscar-winning screenwriter Tom Stoppard working on the script.
Joe Wright (Atonement, Pride and Prejudice) is currently doing press for his upcoming teen assassin thriller Hanna which looks like a big removal from his “Prejudice”. However, Wright is coming back to the world of classic literature adaptations:
I’m hoping to do ‘Anna Karenina’ in the Autumn and I’m reading about St. Petersburg society in the 18th century… You can make a 2 hour movie if you’ve got Tom Stoppard writing. He’s done an amazing script which involves Levin’s story as well as Anna’s story. Yeah, Tom Stoppard is just..also, he’s so immersed in Russian history and culture and identity or lack of it”
he says. According to The Daily Mail Tom Stoppard’s script was already done before Christmas 2010. Asked about settling such a heavy tome, Wright says:
I think Tolstoy wrote it as an accessible piece. It’s a family drama. ‘War and Peace’ was his big political drama and ‘Anna Karenina,’ as he says in the first sentence, is about families. ‘Happy families are all happy in the same way. Unhappy families are all unhappy in different ways.’
