Good morning!
In some news I am particularly excited about, Rooney Mara will be playing the lead in Carol, Todd Haynes‘ Price of Salt adaptation. Mia Wasikowska was supposed to play Therese, the shop girl who falls for an older married woman, but it appears she’s dropped out, with Rooney cast to replace her. I like Mia but I love Rooney, who is certainly no stranger to playing gay. Her older lover, Carol, is to be played by Cate Blanchett, which should be a very interesting match. If you have yet to read Patricia Highsmith’s novel the movie will be based on, do it!
