Talk about an all-star cast! Anthony Hopkins was just confirmed to play King Lear. But don't expect a modern twist on the Shakespearean tragedy, Hopkins says he's "not very fond of the modern adaptations."
Director Joshua Michael Stern also confirmed that Gwyneth Paltrow, Naomi Watts and Keira Knightley would star in the movie as Lear's three daughters. Can't wait!
How could anyone ever forget Gwyneth Paltrow? She's been the leading lady in countless films, and always delivers. But she said she was desperate to return to acting as soon as possible after giving birth because she thought Hollywood had forgotten about her. She made a conscious decision to take time off while pregnant with Moses so she could care for Apple, but admits to spending a lot of time worrying if she could ever make a comeback.
Gwyneth...
Don't hold your breath for a Gwyneth Paltrow movie. The actress says she's going to be putting acting on the "backburner" in order to concentrate on her family.
Paltrow says, "I'm not doing another film until next fall. Everything is about family, I'm putting movies on a backburner.
"London is my home for now - this is where we are concentrating our time."
Come to think of it, what was the last movie Gwyneth was even in???...
