Rob Gets New Costar for The Childhood of a Leader & Filming Confirmation
From Variety “exclusively”:
“Berenice Bejo will play the matriarch in the upcoming drama “The Childhood of the Leader,†Variety has learned.
Juliette Binoche was originally cast in the part, but had to drop out due to scheduling conflicts. The film, which focuses on the early years of a post-World War I ruler, is the directorial debut of actor Brady Corbet (“Simon Killerâ€) and co-stars Robert Pattinson and Tim Roth.
Bejo was nominated for a supporting actress Oscar for her breakout role in 2011’s “The Artist,†won the Cannes actress award for 2013’s “The Past†and reteamed with her husband-director, Michel Hazanavicius, in the 2014 war picture “The Search.â€
Corbet co-wrote the script with Mona Fastvold. “The Childhood of a Leader†will begin shooting in November in Budapest.”

Oh, is she the one from A Knight’s Tale? That movie rocks. I’m always happy to see something solid about this movie

I really enjoyed A Knight’s Tale too Carmel. It’s been too long since I have watched. Berenice played the hand maiden of the main female character. Am with you there, so great to see some solid info about The Childhood Of A Leader. So much we have to look forward to 🙂

I’m sure this is great news. But I’m a little too distracted right now, by the gorgeous guy in the wet t-shirt dodging missiles, to concentrate on anything else ……
