Emma Watson Gives Us A Second Behind The Scenes Look Into Greta Gerwig's "Little Women"

Twitter
First it was Elio Perlman, now it is Hermione Granger. Silly Muggles (and Muggle-born)!

Emma Watson, who will be starring as Meg March in Greta Gerwig's upcoming 2019 film Little Women, joined her castmate Timothée Chalamet (who will play Laurie in this Gerwig adaptation of Louisa May Alcott's classic novel by the same name) in giving fans a little behind the scenes look into the cast and making of the film, sharing on both her Instagram and Twitter two simple but meaningful photos.

The first photo, shared on December 13, opens its caption with a quote from the classic Louisa May Alcott novel with a message central to Gerwig's film adaptation, saying: "I could never love anyone as I love my sisters." 

 As producer Robin Swicord has said, the themes of sisterhood and the development of the March sisters as women were central to Gerwig's film adaptation. The photo shows Watson smiling and sitting next to director Gerwig, followed by Saoirse Ronan (Jo March), Florence Pugh (Amy March), Eliza Scanlen (Beth March), and Timothée Chalamet (the aforementioned heartbreaker Laurie).

 The second photo shared by Watson, on December 19, shows Gerwig giving acting directions to Emma Watson while doing a scene with Laura Dern, who appears in the frame and will portray the matriarch of the March household Marmee March.
And those photos were enough to get fans excited, and with good reason!

Prior to Watson, Chalamet was the first in giving us a sneak peak into Little Women and showing us some love through a picture, sharing a picture from rehearsals on October 20.


As co-producer Robin Swicord previously told the LA Times, Gerwig's film adaptation will differ from the 1994 film adaptation (which was also written by Swicord) in that it will focus more on the life of the March sisters as young adults after they've left their home and will be "taking a look at what it is for a young woman to enter the adult world."

The film will feature a talented cast including Saoirse Ronan, Emma Watson, Florence Pugh, Eliza Scanlen, Laura Dern, Bob Odernik, and Meryl Streep as Aunt March. Little Women will become Greta Gerwig's second collaboration with both Ronan and Chalamet.

Initially Emma Stone had been cast to play Meg March, but due to scheduling conflicts promoting the film The Favourite in which she starred, Stone had to step back from acting in Little Women and was replaced by Watson.

Production of Little Women already started in October. The film will hit theaters on December 25, 2019 and is the Christmas gift I didn't know I needed!

Sincerely, a Greta Gerwig enthusiast named Dora Goto

It's Not All Bad News for "Futurama" Fans, Thanks To Show's So-Developer David X. Cohen

JamCity If you are a big fan of Futurama like myself and were saddened by the news that Netflix was removing episodes from the cult-classic futuristic cartoon, then the show's co-developer David X. Cohen has come to the rescue! Recently it's been seen on Netlflix that various seasons of Futurama have been removed (only seasons 6 and 7 remain, which are divided into 2 parts and listed on Netflix as seasons 7 to 10), and naturally Futurama fans took to social media to express their discontent...most utilizing the show's own memes to do so. Before we go any further, I need to get this out of my system: ...There.  (I didn't mean for all the Futurama memes to be just of Professor Farnsworth, it just happened.)  But it's not all "bad news, everyone!" (Get it?!? Okay, I'll get back to the topic...) During a recent  Reddit AMA , the show's creator Matt Groening and head writer David X. Cohen, along with principal voice actor...

Having Breakfast at Tiffany's is NOW OFFICIALLY a Reality

Paramount Pictures If you're a big Aubrey Hepburn fan or simply a fan of good films from the 1960's like Breakfast at Tiffany's , then you'll probably be giddy as I to find out that an actual café store has opened at the fourth floor of the iconic Tiffany & Co. store located in Fifth Avenue in New York City. The café store is called Blue Box Café (rambling a little bit here so you have time to write it down, okay that's enough), officially opened its doors today, and according to a  review by Vogue  of the café's opening, it offers a $29 breakfast menu option that includes coffee and croissant with the "choice of an avocado toast, truffled eggs, or a smoked salmon bagel with schmear." But Blue Box Café will not only offer breakfast options (* very delicious breakfast options ), as  the  Vogue  review  noted that the cafe also offers lunch options at $39 (which include a starter and main course), including the "Charles Lewis Tiffany"...

Four Days After "The Addams Family" Hit Theaters, A Sequel Has Already Been Confirmed

Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures Hear that? It's the sound of my mind being blown...or that of me snapping along to the Addams Family theme song. Following the commercial success of this year's animated re-imagining of one of our favorite unconventional families,  The Addams Family , which was released on theaters October 11, Deadline  exclusively confirmed on Tuesday that an animated kooky and spooky sequel is already in the works. In just its opening weekend, The Addams Family has earned $30.3 million from its theatrical releases in the United States and Canada (a little bit more than three-quarters of its $40 million budget), surpassing box office predictions and showing that millions of moviegoers are still interested in catching up with what Gomez Addams and his family are doing once again. In doing so,  The Addams Family also became the second highest grossing film in the domestic box office this weekend, following Joker which earned $55.9 million. While it...
