According to WENN.com, the actress originally from Chicago, Gillian Anderson (41 years) has abandoned the role of Martha Gellhorn, the third wife of writer Ernest Hemingway and one of the most respected war correspondent of twentieth century, as Oscar winner Nicole Kidman was cast in exactly the same role in a different film project.
The disappointment of FBI agent Dana Scully from the beloved fiction series The X-Files is even higher as the actress has spent the last two years of her life elaborating a scenario about the biography of the famous author and his wife, an equally famous journalist and novelist.
Winner of a Golden Globe award in 1997, Gillian Anderson gave up the project after reading the information that Nicole Kidman and Clive Owen have signed contracts to appear in the television film "Hemingway & Gellhorn," directed by James Gandolfini for HBO channel.
The star of the film How to Lose Friends & alienate People, The House of Mirth and The Last King of Scotland is blaming herself for that the delay and because she lost the chance to play in this project saying to journalists from Daily Express: "The sad news is that I must abandon the project because HBO develop the same topic, with Nicole Kidman and Clive Owen in the lead roles.
But this happened because it took me too much time to complete the script, which means it's my fault. "by FW Editor |
