HIS MOTHER????

[rhapsodeeinblue]

Omg this is like Tom Hanks and Sally Field

[tucker]

Ew it’s extra gross now that you pointed that out

[britneyspears]

mteeeee

[rhapsodeeinblue]

In addition to Nicole Kidman playing his mom, Anya Taylor-Joy better not be playing his love interest or something...

Alexander Skarsgård (43) is in talks for the role of the prince, with Nicole Kidman (52) playing his mother

Well I know what movie I won't be watching.

So sick of this ageist bullshit.

Lol fucking hell! Worse part is that they played a great couple in Big little lies and now she's suddenly his mother?! Fuck the director, trash!

[aristobrit]

Nobody is twisting Nicole's arm, she probably jumped at the chance to be in Eggers next film. He's the hot property after The VVitch and The Lighthouse.

Love the cast, loved the witch, it has the true quiet spook midsommar wished it had. Lol skarsgard is probably playing a soon to die husband again. I'm loving On becoming a god in central florida. I don't think it's getting love from audiences so i hope it gets awards at least. Kiki is a great actress.
That being said this cast hella white, i ain't gonna be paying for this no ma'am.

[junglelands]

Well, it's about Vikings...

[truth_and_facts]

No shit sherlock! His movies stay white as fuck and that's a fact, the stories he chooses to tell and how he chooses to are his to dictate and he dictates they be white.

[vespertinev]

Preach. I said the same about midsommar

[euraylie]

It's like he's just filming Eric Northman's backstory from True Blood
