The
wonderful and crazy (with a capital C) book Gone Girl is going to be on the big
screen and I cannot be more excited to see this movie when it comes out! David Fincher is set to direct the movie
that will be released around October 2014.
He is known for his directing on The Social Network, Fight Club, and the
Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Having
David Fincher as director of this movie definitely puts a lot of weight as this
being a movie that should be taken seriously, unlike a movie that was a popular
book but on the big screen is kind of a joke (Twilight).
Rosamund Pike |
Ben Affleck |
Ben Affleck is set to be the leading
man playing Nick Dunne, a victim of circumstances in some ways and in others
gets exactly what he deserves at the end of everything. I think Ben Affleck will be awesome in this
role and I can’t wait to see him in this movie!! Nick Dunne is such a schmuck
in so many ways you want to slap him and comfort him all at the same time, and
Ben is definitely the person to pull that off and giving it an award winning
performance! Playing opposite him will
be Rosamund Pike as the notorious Amy Dunne.
I cannot, CANNOT, wait to see her in this role, she isn’t really known
here in America as a popular actress which is okay because she has huge shoes
to fill in this role. Gillian Flynn blew
my mind writing this book, I was completely speechless at a certain point and it’s
all because of Amy Dunne!!!!!! Rosamund Pike has played the beautiful but shy Jane
Bennett in Pride & Prejudice, and played Helen in An Education. She is British born and like I said she isn’t
that well known in America, but for how popular is this book is and how popular
the movie will be you need a unknown in this role.
Neil Patrick Harris |
Neil Patrick Harris will play the
love sick, and just plain sick Desi Collings (its spelled Collings in the book
but Collins on IMBD) in the movie adaption.
He’s such a great actor and I think anything he’s in he will do it
beautifully. I think he can play crazy
well, and it will be interesting to see him put his own spin on this role!
Tyler Perry |
Emily Ratajkowski will play the
other woman Andie in the movie. She’s
the student turned kind of deranged mistress that Nick
Dunne thinks he falls in
love at a certain point, and it’s because of this beautiful Andie that got all
this rolling in the first place. Emily
Ratajkowski isn’t very well known, she grew up in England with a Polish father
and an English mother. She is mostly
known for being the topless brunette girl in Robin Thicke’s Blurred Lines
R-Rated music video that became viral on YouTube. We all know what she looks like mostly naked
already so we knows she is one sexy lady, and to be honest she was my favorite
girl in the music video.
Emily Ratajkowski |
The movie is set to be released late
next year, and will be filmed in parts of Missouri and of course good old Los
Angeles. Gillian Flynn has not only
wrote the novel, but the screen play as well so that gives the movie to more
credibility. It’s nice to know that the
original story line will probably not be completely butchered for the sake of a
more entertaining movie. Obviously
things will be cut out and skipped over but that’s just how it is and we need
to accept it. Reese Witherspoon who many
thought would play Amy Dunne for a while is a producer on this movie which is
pretty cool, and will definitely had to some highlights to her career as
well.
If you've read this book, are you excited to see this all play out on the big screen??
