But she looked so young in Follies.

I still see her more as Cinderella's mother than as Jack's.

God I hope it's Hilty

Hilty played Lucinda in the reading of the script. Although it's not a big part it'd be nice to see her have a role in the film.

I think all of the casting so far has been spot-on. Corden and Blunt are a really great pair, and I'm pleasantly surprised that Baranski will be staying in the cast following the reading; she's terrific. I am wondering how this will interfere with her filming of The Good Wife, though.

If they get Julie Walters to play "Jack's Mother" I will be so happy!!!

[Joviedamian]

If they get Justin Bieber to play "jack" he can sell off his Monkey instead of the cow...

I much rather see Harry than Justin.

Whoever said Bernadette looks too old to play a teen's mother is insane.

Wait, what, no Amy Adams to play the Bakers Wife?

I would love for Julie Walters to play Jack's Mother.

[ComingUpRoses2]

Posted: 5/16/13 at 10:12pm

As much as I usually like Amy Adams, I just didn't buy her as The Baker's Wife. She tried and I admired her for that, but it didn't do much for me. She would have made a great Cinderella back in the day, though.

So here's the confirmed, unconfirmed cast so far:

The Witch:





The Baker:





The Baker's Wife:




The Wolf:




Cinderella's Prince:




Rapunzel's Prince:





Cinderella's Stepmother:

"One quibble: does anyone else think she's way too beautiful to be struck dumb by the Prince's kiss in "Moments in the Woods"?"

I know a lot of beautiful people who would be struck dumb if Jake Gyllenhaal kissed them.

The kiss from the Prince also can play on the whole idea of class segregation. Even in a fairy tale world it would be easy to understand a common baker's wife being flabbergasted that The Prince would want to kiss her, no matter what she looks like.

"One quibble: does anyone else think she's way too beautiful to be struck dumb by the Prince's kiss in "Moments in the Woods"?"

First of all, I think Emily's looks can be toned down to fit the character and her "peasant status."

Second of all, she has to be attractive enough that the prince would want to kiss her ... and kiss her ... and kiss her.

Watching that YT clip of Emily Blunt singing. How was she not cast in a musical movie before this??

[Jordan Catalano]

^That's what I'm saying!!!!

[Kad]

Posted: 5/17/13 at 12:39am

And a lot of attractive people don't think they're attractive.

[CurtainPullDowner]

Posted: 5/17/13 at 1:11am

So will they all have Brit accents?
The stories aren't British.
With all these "stars" I'm thinking Red and Jack will be unknowns.?

[larrystyles]

Posted: 5/17/13 at 1:13am

let's just let Lana Del Rey score the entire movie

[kieranbec]

Posted: 5/17/13 at 2:03am

^^^ Why?

[larrystyles]

Posted: 5/17/13 at 2:05am

because she's the greatest songwriter our generation has seen?
