Mia Joins “The Wettest County in the World”

G’day friends,

A bit of old news which I forgot to put up here – apologies. Anyway, Mia has signed up for a new production called The Wettest County in the World.

A quartet of actors are the latest to join director John Hillcoat’s (The Road) adaptation of Matt Bondourant’s gangster saga The Wettest County in the World. Gary Oldman, Guy Pierce, Mia Wasikowska (The Kids are All Right) and Jason Clarke (Public Enemies) are the latest actors to join the project. Shia Labeuof stars in the film which centers on a family of prohibition-era bootleggers. Tom Hardy and Dane Dehaan (True Blood) also star in the film alongside Jessica Chastain (Terrence Malick’s The Tree of Life) as Hardy’s love interest. THR reports that Oldman will portray a gangster who enlists Labeuof and his friends has alcohol delivery boys, while Pierce will take on the role of an overtly violent deputy. Wasikowska is set to play Labeuof’s love interest.

When Steve recently sat down with Chastain at Sundance, the actress said The Wettest County is basically a 1930’s gangster film, and they start filming in Atlanta in March. Hit the jump to read a synopsis of the novel.

Hello visitors,

Thanks to Aml for linking me to the Variety article below about Mia’s involvement with possible productions:

Mia Wasikowska circles ‘Wettest,’ ‘Stoker’

Mia Wasikowska’s 2011 could get curiously busy.

The “Alice in Wonderland” thesp is circling both John Hillcoat’s “The Wettest County in the World” and Fox Searchlight’s “Stoker.”

She could do both — but as of right now, a scheduling conflict stands in the way. Negotiations are on hold while her reps and the studios try to work out a schedule.

Both pics have received a fair share of buzz in recent months.
