C. Nolan's Interstellar - Part 2

[kvz5]

Matthew McConaughey, Michael Caine, Jessica Chastain and Casey Affleck are all expected to spend at least part of the next month in Alberta

This pretty much confirms what roles they're playing for those that read the script. Also it looks like Affleck is not [blackout]Roth, Doyle, CASE or TARS[/blackout] then.

Yeah, looks like Affleck and Chastain are Matthew's kids. Then Irwin is Roth / Doyle and Case, Tars are androids (Grace and Bentley have that scary look)?

I kinda refuse to believe that the [Blackout]'family scenes'[/blackout] would take one whole month to shoot, particularly when there are far more elaborate sets on the schedule.

Soo...

This basically confirms Caine is playing Donald. Ugh. I wanted him to be playing some other character, Lithgow was perfect for that role.

Lithgow is in Calgary as well,so he could still be playing him.

Heading to Calgary this week (first time) to mix it up with Christopher Nolan. Working to master the spelling of #MatthewMcC's last name.

I think [BLACKOUT]Tina's (fka Murph)[/BLACKOUT] role was expanded a lot and will have [BLACKOUT]her[/BLACKOUT] own side story.

 

[AnneFan]

Ok, so Anne won't be there for the Alberta shoot, which will take part of next month. I guess she will start filming after that.

He is? Oh, good. If so, I wonder who Caine is playing then...

Just like Inception I feel the film will be a helluva lot more than that plotline suggests!

As a massive massive fan of Nolan I just hope he has got the knack of ensemble casts. With both TDKR and Inception one or two characters always felt shortchanged.

 

[Tequilla]

So Lee Smith is back ? Wasn't he busy with Pfister movie ? I actually hoped for someone new.

 

[James.B]

Jessica in Alberta-

Smith wasn't even associated with Pfister's Transcendence.

Smith was a great editor with Inception (didn't he win an Oscar for it?) but TDKR was very sloppy with the editing at points.

 

[Persona]

not to mention The Prestige, The Dark Knight, Truman Show, Buffalo Soldiers, Master & Commander, etc. i agree, the editing i TDKR was a bit sloppy in moments, but i'm not sure how much of that was Lee Smith's fault and how much of it was extenuating circumstances. regardless, he's done so much good work elsewhere (seriously, the editing in The Dark Knight was phenomenal), i give him the benefit of the doubt. and he must have good rapport with Nolan.

Smith's editing wasn't even nominated for Inception, which is just as big of a snub as Nolan not getting a Director nomination for it.

Oh damn I really thought he did. That is a helluva snub! He got nominated for TDK though so him being on Interstellar is fine by me.

 

[Green Goblin]

Is Zimmer doing the soundtrack?

 

[kvz5]

Yes.

 

[AnneFan]

Is Zimmer doing the soundtrack?

Of course.

 

[Tacit Ronin]

Is Zimmer doing the soundtrack?

I was hoping he would switch it up in this front as well. Ya can't have everything, I guess.

Does anybody know or have any idea how long Interstellar will be shooting for?

 

[MrMaooz]
