Real quick now, the actress who will find herself back in Wonderland, Mia Wasikowska (Alice In Wonderland 3D) and the man who defied Persian Empire and the Nazis, Michael Fassbender (300, Inglourious Basterds) are in talks to star in JANE EYRE. Not too long ago, it was announced that the director of Sin Nombre, Cary Fukunaga is going to try to bring another version of JANE EYRE to the big screen. There have been several adaptations of this classic Charlotte Bronte literature, Ellen Page was once attached to star but she exited the project, and the lead role, according to Variety will now most likely go to Wasikowska… who will play a young orphan woman struggling to make a life for herself. Jane Eyre is a poor young teacher who works for the rich and mysterious Mr. Rochester (Fassbender). At first Jane has little to do with her employer, but she soon finds herself falling in love with him. Rochester loves Jane too, but he has a terrible secret from his past. Tragedy follows when Jane learns the truth. Will their love survive?
The script has been written already by Moira Buffini who penned the adaptation of Posy Simmonds‘ graphic novel TAMARA DREW.
