Reunion in sight for Ezra Miller and the director of We Need to Talk About Kevin
Lynne Ramsay is preparing a vampire film, and she castered The Flash actor again.
Surprisingly, for the first time in his career, Lynne Ramsay plans to direct an actor whom she knows well. The director had already collaborated with Ezra Miller on the set of We need to talk about Kevin in which he played the title role 10 years ago.
In a recent interview with Los Angeles Timesthe filmmaker said: “I make a vampire film“Before clarifying:”It was with Ezra Miller, who played in we need to talk about kevin”On the occasion of this reunion, the actor will play the main role in this project under development.
With Five feature films on the clock (Rail,, Morvern Callar,, We need to talk about Kevin,, You were never really here And Die my love),, Lynne Ramsay has become an emblematic figure of international cinema in the past 25 years. Also at the origin of several short films, she would have liked to do more. She says:
“” “It is not wanted. It’s just life that takes over. I have a daughter, there was the covid, we almost arrive at a result and we fall into the water. It’s a difficult sector. “
For the filmmaker, the requirement is the common thread of her work: if she wants “s‘Hand over to a project for two or three years”, It must be passionate about each aspect. Unfortunately, this was not the case when filming a potential adaptation of a short story by Margaret Atwood“ Stone Mattress ”with the actress Julianne Moore. The producers insisted on choosing a place that was not suitable, resulting in changes in the scenario.
She says:
“” “The actress, Julianne Moore, said a few aftershocks in the same place, took four hours of flight and turned the rest of the scene. And I just don’t work like that. I can’t do everything in pieces, and it’s not good for the actors either.»
Finally, shortly after the abandonment of this project, Jennifer Lawrence He slipped the idea of adapting “Die, My Love” by Ariana Harwicz. Freshly presented in Cannes in competition, the film Eponym follows ten years of silence after its last feature film You were never really here. It was bought by Mubi, which will distribute it in the United States, Latin America, Australia and several European countries. But we do not yet know when or how he will go out in France.
While we hope not to wait a decade to watch the next film of the British director, she already delivers some clues to the Times : “Three scenarios” are being produced, at different stages. Lynne Ramsay admits that she did not want to make her audience wait for too long. “” “You will not wait 10 years“She reassures.”I am not 10 years old. I have to do faster. “
