Yorgos Lanthimos shared insights into his upcoming film project with Emma Stone, titled “Kinds of Kindness,” which he is currently editing. This collaboration marks the third time the duo has teamed up creatively.
“It’s a very different film,” Yorgos Lanthimos said, according to deadline.com
“It’s three contemporary stories, and there’s a core of actors — seven total — who play one character in each story,”:” he said. “So, they’ll play three different characters.”
The new movie also stars Poor Things‘ co-star Willem Dafoe.
“We’ll have that for you soon,” Lanthimos promised the press at the Golden Globes, where his other film with Emma Stone, Poor Things, won two trophies: for Best Comedy/Musical Feature and Best Actress Comedy/Musical for Stone, her second after La La Land.
Talking about how she prepped for the role of Bella Baxter, a young woman brought back to life by an unorthodox scientist (played by Dafoe) who discovers her own freedom and sexual independence, Stone said, “I think it was removing life experiences, rather than tapping into life experiences. She was a character unlike anything I’ve ever played, or read, or seen before.”
Yorgos Lanthimos’ film ‘Poor Things’ became a Greek box office hit, selling more than 200,000 tickets in just 15 days. At the 96th Academy Awards, it received 11 nominations, including Best Picture, and won 4 awards.
