Looks like Nicole Kidman wants to continue her winning streak of working with female directors. After starring in Sofia Coppola’s The Beguiled remake and joining the upcoming season of Jane Campion’s Top of the Lake, Kidman is considering taking a role in Karyn Kusama’s crime thriller Destroyer.
Even by its normally prestigious standards, this was a pretty exciting year for the Cannes Film Festival. Surprise selections, an atypically fun jury, and countless debates about Netflix and the future of film exhibition all combined to make headlines all around the world. Oh, and there were also a handful of the most highly anticipated films of 2017 receiving serious recognition from the festival. You know, no big deal.
One look at the new poster for Sofia Coppola’s new dark period thriller The Beguiled, and you may think you’re in safe company. That’s certainly what Colin Farrell’s Union soldier thinks when he arrives, wounded, at a Confederate girls’ boarding school. Oh boy, was he wrong.
