Cate Blanchett Eager To Find Director For ‘Cancer Vixen’ Adaptation
Imagine that you’re an actress not even forty years old, and you’ve already
been nominated for the Oscar four times, won it once, and worked alongside
everyone from Steven Spielberg to Leonardo DiCaprio to Peter Jackson and many
others. Where does Cate Blanchett go from here?
Naturally, she finds increasingly difficult material to make into movies,
then does her best to help steer it to the screen. And her current pet
project is “Cancer Vixen: A True Story,” Marisa Acocella Marchetto’s
humorously serious depiction of how the C-word knocked her out of her Carrie
Bradshaw fantasy and into reality.
“Yes, it’s a comic novel, which I’m hoping will come up,” enthused
Blanchett, who hopes to someday play the part of Marchetto in a feature film
based on her graphic novel. “It’s a really unique book.”
That’s for sure. “Cancer Vixen” tells the story of a successful cartoonist
for magazines like “The New Yorker” and “Glamour” who lives in New York
City and battled breast cancer in 2004 and 2005 – without health insurance.
“Cancer, I am gonna kick your butt,” Marchetto says in a statement that
pretty much sums up her character in the book. “And I’m gonna do it in
killer, 5-inch heels.”
“It’s about a cartoonist’s look at her contracting cancer,” Blanchett
observed of the book, which she acquired the rights to through her Working
Title Films production company shortly after its release. “And the process
of getting cancer.”
For obvious reasons, “Cancer Vixen” isn’t the type of film that Hollywood
views as a potential blockbuster. So the “Curious Case of Benjamin Button”
star is currently developing it slowly and carefully – and says the biggest
difficulty at the moment is finding a director who could properly handle the
tonal mix of drama and humor. “It’s a tragic-comic look at it,” she
explained. “So it needs a really particular, special filmmaker. I hope that
happens.”
And if “Cancer Vixen” does come to fruition, Blanchett said she’s eager to
follow the role wherever it may take her – even to the sad reality faced by
many cancer patients as they undergo chemotherapy. “I’ve shaved my head
before,” she insisted, thinking back to 2002’s underrated Tom Tykver film “
Heaven.” “So yeah.”
Is Cate Blanchett the greatest actress of her generation? If not, who is?
阿姐愿意再度理光头!呵呵
导演的话
Ang Lee可以来一下吗?
The Coens兄弟应该也可以同时掌握戏剧与喜剧
总之,这部作品应该还要等依段时间才有可能实现
