How exciting is this news – please be true.  I LOVE Juliette Binoche – she is BRILLIANT!   The English Patient & Chocolat – 2 of my most fave films!   Screen Daily tells us this:

“Veteran producer and Alfama boss Paulo Branco also talks about new productions including Cosmpolis’ growing cast”….. “He also said that there was now a confirmed shooting date for David Cronenberg’s Cosmopolis of May 24. Paul Giamatti and Juliette Binoche have also joined the cast”

Oh how I LOVE hearing Cosmopolis news.  Hmm question is, who would Juliette be playing.  I look forward to hearing more news.  Those who have read the book may be thinking what I am thinking.  I cannot wait to see Rob in the role of Eric.  Even more so now I’ve read the book which I really enjoyed.  May 24 – not far away now which means BD filming is getting closer to being done with *claps hands*  Bye bye Edward Cullen & helloooo Eric Packer.

Thanks to our elite affie LeRPattzClub & also RPattzBaby for the tip.

    Oh and I forgot to mention – we are thinking of having a separate post to discuss Cosmopolis so that it doesn’t spoilt it for anyone who hasn’t read – is that something you would like to see? It would mean you can bookmark the post and only comment on the book/scenes you want to see in that post.

    Think it’s only fair to not spoil it for anyone else.

    yes, Maria…. is a good idea to have a separate post to discuss Cosmopolis….I just close my mouth,….cause I don’t want to spoil the party…ahhhh

    Wonderful news indeed!!! I too love Juliette Binoche she is such a great actress.
    I am all for the Cosmopolis discussion and even though I have not read it yet I would not mind reading your discussion. It does not seem to be available in Oz as yet, am I right? Did you guys get it off Amazon?

    It’s being re-released in March ephie but yep it is a bit hard to get. I had to end up getting mine from Amazon. The Book Depository ran out of stock 🙁 Even though I ordered it early I still ended up missing out. Oh well I got it – that is the important thing 😀

    @ephie I ordered mine from the Book Depository, you might find it in a secondhand bookstore.

    Re the separate discussion post – I’ll put it up tomorrow 😀

    Love hearing news about Robs up coming projects. I havent read the book and I doubt i’ll have time with uni starting next week. Hope no more people back out of this film. They’d be stupid to.
    @Maria maybe you should do a rough post titled ‘Sare set to star in Cosmopolis’. You know, just to have it on hand *giggles*

  • Maria
    Posted on February 17, 2011

    hahaha – that’s too funny @Sare – I sent a draft post to the girls this morning entitled “Maria Talks Rob “Says He’s Beautiful”” hahaha – everyone else does – yeah I’m going to unleash it maybe in the next few days.

    Love the idea of a seperate discussion on Cosmopolis. It’s getting more and more difficult to keep quiet the closer we get to filming!!!

    I’m still waitiing for my copy of Cosmopolis as well *sighs*, but I love spoilers so I’ll look forward to a Cosmopolis post.
    @Maria I thought about Juliette Binoche for Cosmopolis just last night, while I was watching ‘At The Movies’ on SBS or whichever channel it’s on. They were reviewing her new french film which made me think of Marion, which of course reminded me of Cosmopolis and then I thought she’d probably fit into the movie nicely. I know….I’m strange!

    Oh great idea Maria! I have been busting out of my skin to talk about the book! My other dream job for him to do would be and i remember you saying this too, was John Nivens kill Your Friends. How good would that be for Rob to do. Yes Please! Another “RMB” “THUD” LOL!!

    *thumbs up*

    @Cindy I don’t think he’s an “RMB” in Kill Your Friends – he’s just typical music industry LOL – it’s second nature to them.

    Great news. I think Juliette is a great actress. Loved her in Chocolat & Breaking and Entering. Let’s just hope she doesn’t back out. @Maria your idea is great, I have the book but haven’t started reading it, I’m still finishing up what I was reading, but I’m almost done. And I too love spoilers. I know I will love reading what all you girls have to say.
