Taika Waititi is adapting Kazuo Ishiguro’s bestselling novel Klara and the Sun for the big screen, and he just found a perfect partner in crime! Six-time Oscar nominee Amy Adams landed a key role in this high-profile project opposite Jenna Ortega.

Ishiguro’s novel centers on the journey of an Artificial Friend Klara (Ortega), who’s purchased by a mother (Adams) and her bright daughter Josie, who suffers from a mysterious illness. Klara embarks on a quest to save Josie and her loved ones from heartbreak, while also embracing the power of human love.

The Nobel Prize winner Ishiguro found success with several of his adaptations, starting with The Remains of the Day in 1993, which generated eight Oscar nominations. Never Let Me Go was adapted into a 2010 film starring Carey Mulligan and Andrew Garfield, while The Buried Giant is being adapted into an animated movie by Guillermo del Toro.

Klara and the Sun is Adams’ latest promising project after a series of flops in recent years, including critically panned Dear Evan Hansen and Disenchanted. She’ll next be seen in Marielle Heller’s comedy horror Nightbi–h alongside Scoot McNairy and Ella Thomas, set to be released on Hulu later this year.

It’s already been five years since Amy Adams led HBO’s hit series Sharp Objects, and she’s gearing up for another foray into the world of television. The six-time Oscar nominee landed the lead role in the upcoming legal drama The Holdout, which she’ll also executive produce.

Based on Graham Moore’s novel of the same name, The Holdout will center on a woman who finds herself playing multiple roles in a complex murder mystery—juror, attorney, investigator, and suspect—and here’s what it has in store, according to its official synopsis:

“Ten years after Maya Seale turns the tide in a hugely controversial verdict, a fellow juror is found dead in her hotel room, all evidence points to her. Now, she must prove her own innocence – by getting to the bottom of a case that is far from closed.”

The Holdout was written by The Imitation Game’s Graham Moore, and the team of its executive producers includes Adams, Stacy O’Neil, and Kate Clifford through Bond Group Entertainment, along with Drew Comins of Creative Engine Entertainment.

Adams played her first major lead TV role in HBO’s Sharp Objects in 2018, which earned her an Emmy nomination. She then went on to star in the psychological thriller The Woman in the Window and musicals Dear Evan Hansen and Disenchanted.

This exciting project will be based on J. D. Vance’s memoir Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir of a Family and Culture in Crisis, published in 2016. His look at struggles of America’s working class was a huge hit and it even topped the New York Times’ bestsellers list.

Deadline describes Hillbilly Elegy as amodern exploration of the American Dream and three generations of an Appalachian family as told by its youngest member, a Yale Law student forced to return to his hometown.”

The Shape Of Water co-writer Vanessa Taylor was in charge of penning the script.

This Netflix film isn’t the only exciting project that Amy Adams has in store. She recently wrapped up production on highly-anticipated thriller The Woman in the Window, and is attached to a rumored Enchanted sequel.

Christian Bale went through several crazy body transformations over the course of the last few decades, but he took things to a whole new level in Vice. The trailer for his latest project just dropped, and the Oscar-winning actor looks completely unrecognizable as former vice president Dick Cheney.

Vice promises to tell the untold story behind the most powerful vice president in American history, and how his policies changed the world as we know it.

Christian Bale gained 40 pounds to play Cheney and claimed he ate a lot of pies to achieve this goal. He also worked hard to nail his mannerisms and accent. Bale did a lot of research to learn more about his policies so he could easily improvise at any given moment. This isn’t the first time Bale pushed his body to the limits and completely immersed in the character. That’s why Adam McKay knew he was the right person for the job even before he hired him.

“What Christian Bale really does is he psychologically breaks someone apart and puts them back together again. I’ve never seen someone work so hard. It is hard on him, but really amazing to watch,” explained McKay, who previously directed Bale in The Big Short.

Vice also stars Sam Rockwell as George W. Bush, Amy Adams as Lynne Cheney and Steve as Donald Rumsfeld. It’s scheduled to be released on December 25, in the peak of the awards season.
