Emma Stone And Brad Pitt At The Casting Of ‘Babylon’

15 November, 2019

Barely a year after the release of First Man, Damien Chazelle's latest feature film, The Hollywood Reporter gives us news of Hollywood's protégé, who is currently working on its fifth film.

For the second time, he should pay tribute to the cinema world by immersing us in the heart of Hollywood's golden age in the 1920s. Like Once Upon A Time... in Hollywood, Tarantino's great fresco of the New Hollywood, Chazelle's new project, Babylon, should mix the destiny of real personalities with that of fictional characters to tell the story of the upheavals caused by the end of silent film and the advent of talking film.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Emma Stone and Brad Pitt are in talks to integrate the film's casting. The actress, who won the Oscar for Best Actress for La La Land, is expected to play Clara Bow, Hollywood's it-girl and one of the first sex symbols of silent film.

For this new project, Brad Pitt was chosen over Ryan Gosling and should play a silent film actor who missed the turn towards talking. He is a fictional character but inspired by the American actor John Gilbert, whose career declined as he shot his first talking film. His high-pitched voice did not correspond to the virile image he had built throughout his career in silent cinema.

However, it is not known whether it will be a new musical film, which Damien Chazelle has made his specialty. The decline of silent cinema in favor of talking has already been staged in a musical film: Singing in the Rain.

For this new project, Damien Chazelle should deploy the greatest resources with a budget of $100 million. This would be its largest production to date. The film will be released by Paramount, which is planning a release at Christmas 2020, a strategic date to hope to make it into the Oscar race.
