I missed this a couple of weeks ago, but there's again talk of NP being one of a stout ensemble that Tom Tykwer is assembling for an adaptation of David Mitchell's Cloud Atlas. Here's what I posted in February of '09 and here's a review of Mitchell's latest book that gets into some detail about Cloud Atlas. (Film Stage/New Yorker/photo by Hedi Slimane)
Acclaimed German filmmaker Tom Tykwer is currently working on his script adaptation of David Mitchell‘s popular novel Cloud Atlas, a project with six main characters that spans thousands of years and several different genres. Ambitious to say the least, it only makes sense that Tykwer is going after some of the best talent Hollywood currently has, as The Playlist reports that roles in the film were recently offered to Tom Hanks (Toy Story 3), Natalie Portman (Brothers), Halle Berry, James McAvoy, and Ian McKellan.
Tykwer, who directed the kinetic action movie Run Lola Run and, most recently, helmed The International, has always had a taste for the unusual. Although his casting aspirations may seem like an array of random Hollywood stars, some may recall that Portman appeared in Tykwer‘s contribution to Paris, je t’aime. (He helmed the “Faubourg Saint-Denis” segment.)
