TODD HAYNES TO DIRECT CATE BLANCHETT AND MIA WASIKOWSKA IN PATRICIA HIGHSMITH'S CAROL


This was initially supposed to be directed by John Crowley, who directed breakthrough performances such as Cillian Murphy in Intermission and Andrew Garfield in Boy A. He's out, due to scheduling conflicts, and Todd Haynes is in. Patricia Highsmith's source novel is based in New York in the 1950s - Mia Wasikowska will play a 20-something department store employee, and Cate Blanchett, whom Haynes so memorably directed to an Oscar nomination in his last feature film, 2007's I'm Not There., will play an unhappy wife.
