Well, I'll concede the point regarding Jessica Chastain and Bryce Dallas Howard.....but still think a lot of the roles Stone is doing now, Taylor-Joy would easily be in consideration for if they were at similar levels in the industry at the same time. Shit, I never would have thought to cast Stone in a historical European period film like The Favourite (and to her credit, she pulled it off), wheras Taylor-Joy feels a natural casting fit for that kind of thing

I guess Robbie is now part of the Lawrence-Stone-Robbie triumvirate, with roles that one turns down or is not available for going to one of the other two. Ronan is similarly coveted, but I think she has her own niche and won't compete with these three quite as much.

I think she's seen as half-a-generation ahead of the actresses I mentioned and I don't think she's quite as sought after as them either, so she probably won't be the first name that comes to mind when Lawrence or Stone turns someone down. We'll have to see if Promising Young Woman changes that for her. Despite the success of A Star is Born, I don't think Cooper is still in the same playing field as Chazelle, DOR, or even McKay as a director. That's not to say that Mulligan hasn't been doing well for herself, but I think Lawrence-Stone-Robbie are a bit higher up the Hollywood totem pole.

Even though she's slightly older than this triumvirate.

From the IMDb summary, the Bernstein film looks to be a two-hander: Not really comparable to Miller's part in American Sniper on the page, is it?

Mulligan a very good actress, but she’s not an it-girl and I don’t think she was ever groomed to be. It’s usually pretty easy to tell when that’s happening these days.. Suddenly they’re on the shortlist for major prestige project, they’ll get stuck in some random blockbuster and are pretty consistently up for awards.
Promising Young Woman is the most buzzy role she’s had in a while and that was ironically produced my Margot Robbie.

I'll be honest Ronan, outside of her collaborations with Greta Gerwig, doesn't seem to be as much as requested as these three by filmmakers in general. Like I said, I think Ronan has her own niche and probably isn't competing for the same roles as the triumvirate, but that doesn't necessarily mean her opportunities are much less appealing than theirs. Little Women was quite the get, with her leading an incredible cast that included the likes of Watson, Dern, Chalamet, and Streep. She was billed over Robbie in the recent Mary Queen of Scots. She's going to be in Wes Anderson's next movie, and he is highly respected. I think she's up there with the three of them; just in a different pocket. Johansson is definitely sought after as well, but she's a generation ahead of these actresses and is probably also seen as older than she is because she's been around for much longer, so she is more likely to contend with Theron for the top-shelf roles of that bracket. That's just how I see it, I could be wrong.

From the IMDb summary, the Bernstein film looks to be a two-hander: Not really comparable to Miller's part in American Sniper on the page, is it? I mean, I remember when Miller was being touted as a contender for both her biopic appearances that year. It sounds like this role will be far more substantial from that plot description, but it remains to be seen how the finished project will be, and generally, in biopics, the dutiful wife role winds up being docked to supporting and even if the film takes on a more domestic tack instead of focusing on Bernstein's career, it still might be a thankless part to bolster Cooper, which has happened before (i.e. how he pretty much undercut Lady Gaga in the second half of A Star Is Born).

Even though I and some other people think she's beautiful Saoirse is not going to be cast in glamorous "Hollywood bombshell" parts like this will presumably be. She also appears to be broadly disinterested in genre type stuff based on comments she's made. I think Streep is the ideal career model for her, just having a long career as the lead in quality dramas.

Linus Sandgren and Mary Zophres are listed as the cinematographer and the costume designer on IMDb page.

I remember reading that the original script would warrant an NC-17.

Hasn't Baz Luhrmann's already made Gatsby on steroids? Unless Brad Pitt is going to toast towards the camera as fireworks detonate behind him during the crescendo of Rhapsody in Blue I don't see this being any more roided out than that was.

Since nobody mentioned it, I was just reminded back when Pitt and DiCaprio were on WTF together and Pitt mentioned this, DiCaprio went "Oh cool! That's a great script. Great."
Idk if he had an offer or probably more likely he just reads everything, but thumbs up from Leo, anyway.
