UPDATED: Emma Stone to join PRIDE AND PREJUDICE AND ZOMBIES?
UPDATE: Deadline now reports that Stone has passed on the role.
Emma Stone is one of the biggest young actresses out there these days, whose popularity is only rivaled by her great talent. She has the tendency to raise a film up, and make it better than it really has any right being. Now she will be playing Gwen Stacey in THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN, casting could not have been any more perfect. I mean, haven't you seen the photos?
Things don't seem to be slowing down for her either, as it seems like she could be taking up the lead role in PRIDE AND PREJUDICE AND ZOMBIES.
The film has looked at quite a few actresses for the part already, such as Mia Wasikowska and Anne Hathaway, but it seems they have found Stone to be more fitting. Fitting enough to where they have decided to officially offer her the role. If she accepts, then this film will further her zombie cred that she started gaining with 2009's ZOMBIELAND.
I'm not sure that the Emma Stone bandwagon will end any time soon, and rightfully so I should add. It would be exciting to see her take on this film, and help bring Seth Grahame-Smith's tale to life. She has the charm and humor to fit right into the world he has created.
Would you guys like to see Stone take on this role?
