Hm. No you haven't. Gerwig already said she's doing an original take on the novel, it will be totally different. So probably totally bad then. From a critically acclaimed and Oscar nominated director? I don't think so.

My anticipation level just dropped to near 0. quetee - Ronan is Jo; Watson will be Meg; Eliza Scanlen is Beth; Florence Pugh is Amy. pacinoyes - Now, not a single American actress will be playing one of the March sisters...

So this is the opposite of the previous film which of course had All American March sisters (Dunst, Ryder, Alvarado, Danes) - in one of the most American of novels. Not sure what you can do in terms of approach - but the link below is what I'd expect, and of course you'll need a Brit as the lead werewolf, someone get Mark Rylance! The 94 version had a female director and writer too..........and that was way back in the dark ages when we had males running Hollywood and groping everybody although, we did also have young American actresses who you could cast in things and stuff. www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/203051/little-women-and-werewolves-by-louisa-may-alcott-and-porter-grand/9780345522603/

Not sure I'm buying Stone's reason for dropping out either.She needs to be available for promotional duties for The Favourite?.Plenty of actors shoot movies while promoting other movies.There must be more to it than that.

Fuck yes. : : That's one hell of a cast they're putting together, can't wait to see how it all shapes up. Emma Stone is out, Emma Watson replaces her. Talk about a fucking downgrade. Remember when this was still an exciting project? Good times.

That's perfectly believable, though, it's not an uncommon clause. Promoting the films once they're out is part of the actors' job too, and Searchlight probably knows they have a potential frontrunner in their hands, so they'll want the cast working the awards circuit in full force, which could take up a full 3 or 4 months.

True, but she would've known about all that when she signed on to do the film.She's also a supporting character not the lead, she would've had time to do both.

My God, the hate Watson gets here! I love both the Emmas so I'm happy that if anybody replaced Stone, it's Watson. I hope she shuts the naysayers with this one. ❤️

Is the adaptation set in a race track? Because everyone is going to act circles around Watson.

Its fine!! Watson will do great. Emma probably doesn't like the story too much....or had a chance to do something better in a Leading lady project. Who knows. She's a freshly Oscar winner, she might have numerous offers and more interesting that this.

I'd bang her but I could not stand talking to her for 5 minutes without wanting to strangle her.

Don't care about the haters though.

Actually this could be pretty good with this cast. I've seen the adaptations of 1949 and 1994 and while I liked both I thought, none of them was great.

Each version had something good to offer and the casting was always on point. I will give all versions a chance.

He's prob playing the grandfather neighbor role? I kinda wanted Pacino there just so he could have not 2 but 3 major ensemble pics coming out next year. Also I don't think he's ever worked with a female movie director....
