Gone are the days when Hailee Steinfeld had to define ridiculous words like “blingatude” in Kmart commercials. The Oscar nominee is in talks to play the lead in a new adaptation of Romeo and Juliet from Gosford Park screenwriter Julian Fellowes. The movie, budgeted at $15 million, will shoot in Italy later this year. Steinfeld will also revisit the classics in a “revisionist” Sleeping Beauty from screenwriter Linsday Devlin. [ THR ]

Who would ever have thought that Robert Ludlum would have become the father of modern action cinema? The ruthless 2002 film adaptation of his novel The Bourne Identity — with the hero trying to figure who or what he (or she is), while amassing a body count that warrants coverage on CNN — is now the genre standard, and in this year alone, we’ve seen a number of variations on that theme. The most recent is director Joe Wright’s efficient and soulful Hanna , in which the title character (played by Saorise Ronan), a pale-skinned teenager with matching sandalwood hair and eyebrows, has mastered the art of contained chaos.

Oh, Daniel Radcliffe — how you melt the icy chambers of my frozen heart.

Now, I will admit that as both a big fan of Daniel and How to Succeed, there’s was almost no chance that I wouldn’t love it, but I dare you not to impressed by the former boy wizard’s musical stylings. Check out the Broadway magic below! [ Broadway ]

As alluded to in this morning’s edition of The Broadsheet, everyone in Hollywood seems stunned by the success story that is Black Swan . Even filmmaker Darren Aronofsky says he can’t make heads or tails of the phenomenon, which has earned recognition everywhere from manic-comic Saturday Night Live segments to the supermarket-tabloid media obsessed with star Natalie Portman (now pregnant by and engaged to marry on-screen dance partner Benjamin Millipied). “I get the teenage-girl part of the audience because it’s a coming-of-age story about a girl becoming a woman. But older people are seeing it too,” he told the LA Times . “I don’t know if even I understand it.” Oh, Darren — don’t start being modest now : Let’s hear it for lesbians!

The kind of filmmaking excitement that director Peter Weir brings to movies is bone deep. It doesn’t emerge in the flashy flourishes that come off as compulsively exhibitionistic — the “Dude, Where’s My Camera Car?” school. Instead, in the potent and dream-like The Way Back , Weir’s subtle control is evident by the way he uses sound, embracing the allure and menace it simultaneously evokes. And we’re reminded how crushingly obvious many directors are about incorporating the aural aspect of their work; generally when the audience is aware of it, it’s used like a blunt object by horror film directors.
