Got a Tip?

Léa Seydoux Joins Ensemble Cast Of Woody Allen’s ‘Midnight In Paris’

Well, though she was in the running until the last possible moment, Léa Seydoux unfortunately didn’t make the cut for David Fincher’s “The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo” but she will get to work with another acclaimed director. Toue le Cine reports that Seydoux has joined the extensive cast of Woody Allen’s currently filming “Midnight In Paris.”

The film stars (deep breath) Owen Wilson, Rachel McAdams, Kathy Bates, Michael Sheen, Adrien Brody as well as the lesser-known likes of Nina Arianda, Corey Stoll, Mimi Kennedy, Kurt Fullerby, Carla Bruni and French comedians Gad Elmaleh and Manu Payet. The official synopsis describes the picture as “a romantic comedy that follows a family travelling to the city for business. The party includes a young engaged couple that has their lives transformed throughout the journey. The film celebrates a young man’s great love for Paris, and simultaneously explores the illusion people have that a life different from their own is better.” So yeah, your standard Allen film.

Don’t except her part to be very big in the film; Léa Seydoux is still a relatively unknown actress and she’ll probably get a couple of lines here. North American audiences might known her best from her roles in “Robin Hood” and “Inglorious Basterds” while arthouse fans might have noticed her in “La Belle Personne.”

“Midnight In Paris” will be out in 2011 and will most likely premiere out of competition at Cannes. Allen’s next film “You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger” opens on September 22nd.
