As the 'Hollywood Reporter' writes today, Gus Van Sant's unusual drama SEA OF TREES is rounding up the cast: the latest one to join Matthew McConaughey, Ken Watanabe and Naomi Watts is Katie Aselton. She will play McConaughey's lover, while Naomi is his wife in the story which centres on Arthur (Matthew McConaughey), an American man, and a Japanese man named Takumi (Ken Watanabe) who meet in an area of Japan known as the "Suicide Forest," where many go to end their own lives. Instead of killing themselves, the two men go on a journey of self-reflection through the forest together.

"Sea of Trees" has an intriguing premise!
ReplyDeletemost intriguing, I wonder which period it will be set in and if it will have a fantasy element.
DeleteMatthew McConaughey plays in some unusual movies.
ReplyDeleteThat is true
DeleteSuicide Forest? Sounds creepy. Love Mathew McConaughey though so will probably watch it. :)
ReplyDeletewe have a suicide block in my city with the highest rate of suicides in Europe.. it was built on a marshy ground so I'd blame it on fumes...
DeleteReally? How awful.
Deleteit is. It's an apartment block all in concrete and asphalt... and plus we live in an absolute lowland and they say it can cause depression and melancholy. It's also built in a place where Serbs, Jews and Gypsies were shot by the Nazis every day during WW2
DeleteI'm speechless. Sounds ... beyond tragic.
Deletethat is how it's like outside Middle Earth
DeletePeople...
Deleteare their own biggest villains
DeleteThe Spawn and I watched a documentary on the suicide forest in Japan. There are signs of encouragement posted throughout to try to uplift people and there are volunteers now who walk the woods trying to comfort people.
ReplyDeleteNow onto Gerard. I can see him saving the world from tragedy. I certainly do hope they have him saving it wearing only a bath towel.
I'm not suprised, Japan is such a competitive society and it is no wonder so many people can't find their direction there in life.... They're being grind under huge pressure from the earliest years of school and it never stops for them.
DeleteDarling, please do visit HOLLYWOOD SPY page over at Facebook, because I've posted the nudest of Gerard's pics there yesterday and today :)
Cornish is hot
ReplyDeleteboys do say to and she really lurvs posing naked
DeleteSay it ain't so. I mean... say it again. Please.
Deleteshe really lurvs doing naked photos... google her.....
DeleteThanks for the eye candy (Matthew and Gerard)!!! As much as I love staring at Matthew McConaughey, though, watching two guys trudge through a forest for two hours after thinking about committing suicide isn't my idea of a good time.
ReplyDeletesuicide is becoming a new trend in Hollywood films, we've already seen Toni Collette, Aaron Paul and Pierce Brosnan trying to kill themselves in LONG WAY DOWN
DeleteMatthew is not aging well at all. He looks very tired in all his photos lately. The guy should rest up for a bit. Maybe eat some sandwiches too.
ReplyDeleteI agree, I think he looks like he's been taking some of the things you take when you're a gym fanatic which make your face become very harsh, but he also lost tones of weight for that Oscar winning role of his.
Deleteit is always dangerous losing extreme weight or gaining it for roles. We've seen stars doing it and some of them have even admitted that they got diabetes due to extreme diets for their roles. It is really crazy and outrageous.
DeleteI agree. That yo-yo dieting actors do is really hard on the body. Jared Leto is another on that comes to mind when talking about these diets making them appear ragged after some time.
ReplyDeleteyep, I would be surprised if Jared doesn't develop some kind of illness or disease in the upcoming years due to his extreme dieting. What's worse, he isn't even a good actor... he won an Oscar just for crossdressing and losing weight not for acting skills.
