Meryl more likely for "Into the Woods"?
This morning on The Meryl Streep forum, Regina at FYC Meryl Streep posted a notice of an Into the Woods film cast reading that evidently took place yesterday. Donna Murphy was listed as The Witch, so I thought this was to be taken as confirmation that Meryl would not be participating in the project. However, there is an article on Broadway World that indicates Meryl is expected to be in the film cast, but was unable to attend the reading (makes sense since she's in Oklahoma shooting August: Osage County). This article ultimately means two things to me: 1) the film is definitely happening, and 2) the cast has yet to be solidified, and Meryl is still "in talks" for the role. I expect we'll get a little more info on this over the next week, but I doubt any of it will confirm or deny Meryl's absolute participation. I'm just glad to learn she's still attached to the movie. Joe will be so pleased.

Jeff, Am so excited about Meryl doing this. Film casting for this should be fun. Ken
ReplyDeleteKen, I really hope this happens. I'll just be excited to get something definite about Meryl's participation. It's funny how twenty years ago she joked about getting offers to play witches and now in her 60s she might actually do it!
