Mary Attends Special Screening of Baby Girl Plus New Filming Update

It’s a great day to get your fix of the latest Mary news! First up, over the weekend, Mary and Ewan attended a special screening of A24’s newest film Babygirl which stars Nicole Kidman. They were there to support Ewan’s daughter Esther McGregor who also has a role in the film as Kidman’s daughter. In the new photos, you can clearly see that Mary has dyed her hair blonde for her upcoming film The Hand that Rocks the Cradle! You can check out the new pics in the gallery.

And speaking of The Hand That Rocks the Cradle, it was reported earlier today that Smile 2‘s Raúl Castillo has joined the film in a supporting role as the architect husband of Winstead’s character, portrayed in the original 1992 film by Annabella Sciorra. Claire Bartel is happily married and pregnant for the second time when she becomes the target of a dark plot on the part of a nanny — originally portrayed by Rebecca De Mornay, and now by Monroe. Directed by Curtis Hanson, the original watches as Peyton infiltrates the lives of the Bartel family after experiencing personal and professional ruin, slowly gaining their trust while manipulating them from within. Her ultimate goal? To destroy Claire and assume her place within her family.

New ‘Rich Flu’ Stills and Plot Details Released

Good morning, everyone! Some brand new stills of Mary in her upcoming film Rich Flu have been released as well as some new plot details.

Tidbits about the synopsis is as follows (with translation):

A new virus breaks out and wipes out the richest and most influential people in the world. Just when Laura (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) is on the verge of realizing all her dreams of social success. The executive of an up-and-coming streaming platform is accepted into the most elite circles thanks to a surprise promotion, can send her daughter Anna (Dixie Egerickx) to the most exclusive schools and no longer has to worry about finances. But the virus is cutting ever wider swathes through Western society: economic empires are faltering, the stock market collapses and widespread chaos breaks out. As all the rich try to get to safety from the metropolises, Laura also flees Europe along with her daughter, her husband (Rafe Spall) and her mother (Lorraine Bracco) on a highly risky route. But can the virus ever be far enough away?

Hopefully this means with new photos released, a trailer isn’t too far behind.

Mary Elizabeth Winstead “In Talks” For ‘Hand that Rocks the Cradle’ Reboot

As the headline states, Mary is currently in talks to join It Follows and Longlegs actress Maika Monroe in a remake of the 1992 thriller The Hand That Rocks the Cradle for 20th Century Fox.

According to Deadline, Michelle Garza Cervera will direct the pic, with Micah Bloomberg penning the script.
In the original film directed by Curtis Hanson, the ’92 film starred Rebecca de Mornay as a pregnant woman who is married to a sex offender; her husband eventually gets caught and kills himself after other victims come forward. This leads de Mornay’s character having a miscarriage, and she looks to exact revenge against one of her husband’s assault victims (Annabella Sciorra) and her family, leading to a bloody conflict between the two women. While the plot points for the new film remain hidden, the casting will see Winstead portray the part of the assault victim while Monroe will take over as the sex offender’s widow.

Mary was last seen opposite her husband Ewan McGregor in the Paramount+ series ‘A Gentleman in Moscow‘ and starring in Disney+’s Ahsoka series opposite Rosario Dawson.

What do you guys think of the news? I’m personally excited Mary is getting back into the horror/thriller genre! If you’re also curious, you can view the trailer for the original film below:

‘Rich Flu’ to Premiere at TIFF, First Look Photo and Synopsis!

We finally have a HUGE update on Mary’s long-awaited film ‘Rich Flu’! Remember, the last update we got on this film was way back in November of 2022 when Mary was spotted filming some scenes for the upcoming movie and the news hadn’t come out until February 2023 that she was part of the cast once she replaced Rosamund Pike.

Now it has been revealed that the film will premiere at TIFF on Friday, September 6. However, that first screening will only be accessible to accredited buyers during the Festival. On the TIFF website, the film is also marked as an industry select, making it one of 10 films that go beyond the Official Selection, and are all available for worldwide acquisition.

Basically, after its screening, we’ll eventually find out what studio picks it up to distribute it. In the meantime, the first official photo of Mary in the film has been released, and I have added the full-sized photo in the gallery.

The film’s full plot is as follows:

A strange and unexpected disease is taking the lives of the world’s wealthiest and most influential people. First, the billionaires die, then the multi-millionaires, and so on progressively. The pandemic threatens to reach anyone with any kind of fortune. No one knows where the limit is. At first, the masses joyfully welcome the disappearance of great fortunes, but as the collapse of their economic empires affects the stock market, employment, and economic stability, chaos takes over the First World.

So excited to finally hear some news about it!
