The new film adaptation Les Miserables, scheduled to be released on 7 December 2012, is directed by Tom Hooper (The King’s Speech), written by William Nicholson and adapted from the popular musical of the same name, which is in turn based on an 1862 French novel by Victor Hugo.
The cast includes Hugh Jackman (Jean Valjean), Russell Crowe (Inspector Javert), Anne Hathaway (Fantine), Helena Bonham Carter (Mme. Thénardier), Geoffrey Rush (Thénardier) and Eddie Redmayne (Marius Pontmercy).
Filming will begin in early 2012.
I’m skeptical about Hugh Jackman, BUT EDDIE REDMAYNE, AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
