Romeo and Juliet: Hailee Steinfeld, Douglas Booth Starring Lol‘s Douglas Booth and True Grit‘s Hailee Steinfeld, a new version of Romeo and Juliet is currently being shopped around at the Cannes Film Festival. Partly financed by Austrian design house Swarovski, this latest adaptation of Shakespeare’s love story was written by Academy Award winner Julian Fellowes (Gosford Park) and directed by Carlo Carlei. A Best New Director David di Donatello nominee for The Flight of the Innocent (1993), Carlei’s previous English-language foray, the Matthew Modine vehicle Fluke, was a major box-office flop in 1995. In recent years, Carlei has worked on Italian television; his most recent TV movie was a remake of Roberto Rossellini’s Il General della Rovere (2011), starring Pierfrancesco Favino in the old Vittorio De Sica role. According to the Los Angeles Times blog 24 Frames, producer Ileen Maisel wants “every teenager in the world to come see” Romeo and Juliet. »

Just when you thought the ensemble romance had reached its pinnacle with "New Year's Eve," the genre is being revitalized by revisiting a classic.
"Homeland" star Damian Lewis has been cast as Lord Capulet in "Downton Abbey" writer Julian Fellowes' adaptation of "Romeo and Juliet," which began filming in Italy late last month with youngsters Hailee Steinfeld, Douglas Booth, Ed Westwick and Kodi Smit-McPhee.
And Lewis isn't the only big name on the bill; the list of newly-cast leads reads like a longer list of Hollywood who's who. Joining are Natasha McElhone (Lady Capulet), Stellan Skarsgard (Prince of Verona), Paul Giamatti (Friar Laurence), Tomas Arana (Lord Montague), Laura Morante (Lady Montague), Lesley Manville (The Nurse), Christian Cooke (Mercutio) and Leon Vitali (Apothecary).
While Fellowes realizes that his idea to adapt the Shakespeare classic may not be an original one, he's excited to do a more traditional rendering of the work. »

Damian Lewis ("Homeland") and Natascha McElhone ("Ronin") are set to play Lord and Lady Capulet in Carlo Carlei's adaptation of Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" reports Risky Biz Blog.
Oscar-winning scribe and "Downton Abbey" creator Julian Fellowes says this version will be a "romantic, traditional rendition of the piece" set in the medieval time of the play - something we really haven't seen since Franco Zeffirelli’s 1968 version.
Fellowes has tightened the play to fit into a standard two-hour feature running time, but reportedly did very little re-writing. Hailee Steinfeld and Douglas Booth play the doomed lovers.
Also joining the cast are Stellan Skarsgard (Prince of Verona), Lesley Manville (The Nurse), Christian Cooke (Mercutio), Tomas Arana (Lord Montague), Laura Morante (Lady Montague) and Leon Vitali (Apothecary).
They join the already announced Paul Giamatti (Friar Laurence), Kodi Smit-McPhee (Benvolio) and Ed Westwick (Tybalt). Filming began ten days ago in Rome, Mantua and Siena in Italy. »
