Jessica Chastain In Talks for Christopher Nolan’s Sci-Fi Thriller ‘Interstellar’
Jessica Chastain (Zero Dark Thirty) is in talks to star alongside Matthew McConaughey & Anne Hathaway in Christopher Nolan’s sci-fi thriller Interstellar. The film will “explore physicist Kip Thorne’s theories of gravity fields, wormholes and several hypotheses that Albert Einstein was never able to prove.” This keeps on getting better. The synopsis gives me goosebumps and Jessica Chastain is a national treasure/goddess/unicorn so needless to say, I’m very happy about this casting development.
Deadline is reporting that Chastain would play the third lead in Interstellar if negotiations go well. I do think she should be starring in a minimum seven feature films per year so it will nice to see her tackle the sci-fi genre; the best genre. The script was penned by Jonathan Nolan and will be shot by Hoyte Van Hoytema (Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy), since Nolan’s long-time cinematographer Wally Pfister is busy with his own directorial debut. Interstellar is scheduled for release on November 7, 2014.
