You say Magnolia, I say ‘Melancholia’. Movie maker Lars von Trier (‘Dogville’, ‘Antichrist’) certainly likes to shock his audiences and leave them feeling, well…dirty. So we’re thinking that Kirsten Dunst (below) and Charlotte Gainsbourg certainly have signed up for some pretty intense and unusual scenes in his latest sci-fi thriller ‘Melancholia’. Last December Dunst revealed to Vanity Fair that she was set to get totally naked in the movie (score!) and now Magnolia Pictures have picked up the distribution rights. ‘Melancholia’ also stars Kiefer Sutherland (’24’), Charlotte Rampling, John Hurt (‘Alien’), Alexander Skarsgård, Stellan Skarsgård, Brady Corbet (‘Funny Games U.S.’) and Udo Kier.
“‘Melancholia’ follows a group of people who react after discovering that the earth is on a collision course with another planet.”
‘Melancholia’ is currently set to open in Danish theatres on 26 May 2011.
