Winslet's their top choice, I can say that for certain. They're in talks this week, expect an announcement next week (is what I'm being told.) She doesn't have a film lined up for six or so months, and that in itself is flexible. Firsthand knowledge, take it or leave it. I, for one, am really hoping all of this that I'm told will come to reality.

LoveIsCompany, I really hope you are right. If you are, I think I will buy tickets the minute they are on sale.
"Some people can thrive and bloom living life in a living room, that's perfect for some people of one hundred and five. But I at least gotta try, when I think of all the sights that I gotta see, all the places I gotta play, all the things that I gotta be at"
When I see the phrase "the ____ estate", I imagine a vast mansion in the country full of monocled men and high-collared women receiving letters about productions across the country and doing spit-takes at whatever they contain.

LoveIsCompany is reliable and a darling, I don't get PGenre's need to make that kind of bitchy comment. Seriously, I can't wait for an official announcement.

It's fine to take sport in speculation and bitchiness is not something I aim for, but I clearly stated weeks ago that this was essentially a done deal and it has continued to be.
The tantalizing tidbits being offerred by LoveisCompany is obviously a preferable mode of anticipation, I suppose.
And plans can always fall through, after all.
Frederick is the real suprise. Who to team with Angie and Winslet? Who indeed... (!!!!) I'd say someone is gonna win his Tony for his second Broadway Sondheim show (after being snubbed the first time), though he was brilliant in what I saw him in in DC seven years ago. My favorite actor actually.

I know who you are talking about. And it's not a huge secret. Definitely an exciting bit of casting (if it definitely happens).
I bet it's Jere Shea. I knew he was going to make a huge comeback.

I'm hesitant to believe anything until it's official, but, Kate Winslet is about one of a number of film actors I can count on one hand that I have respect for. I would melt into a puddle of goo if I saw her on stage.
It's pretty easy to figure out who P Genre is talking about, so be that the case, he hasn't done much to keep it a surprise. And, be that the case, I will be investing in an oxygen tank.
A few offers were officially accepted today, so I'd expect an announcement this next week. Most of the speculation is dead on, but there will be a few surprises that I think most will be pleased with!
as much as I'd like to go campaigning "Jere Shea for Fredrik in '09," I have no idea who this nameless actor is.
although...I must admit...I can't see Raul as Fredrik. I love him, but no.

And yes, I have a bit of a hard time seeing him as Frederik at the age the part was originally written to be. Which is like 50. But if they're skewing this much younger, well, it could work.
