The last time she worked with director Fernando Meirelles, on The Constant Gardener, she won an Oscar, so Rachel Weisz must hoping for good things with the sexually charged drama 360, which she's just signed up for and which will reunite her with the helmer.
Peter Morgan (The Queen, Frost/Nixon), who seems to write every screenplay in Hollywood that isn't a blockbuster or comedy, is on scripting duties for the film, which examines sexual morals within and between social classes, using various pairs of characters who have sexual encounters in and outside of their social classes. Morgan’s inspiration is Reigen, the play by Austrian author/playwright Arthur Schnitzler (whose worked also inspired Stanley Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut). Originally published in 1900, the play was scandalous when first made public.'
Reigen was previously turned into the controversial 1950 French movie La Ronde, and more recently got put adapted for the stage by David Hare as The Blue Room, which memorably featured Nicole Kidman in the altogether, so it's certainly no stranger to scandal. At the moment there's no news on what role Weisz will play, but it's a fair assumption that she'll be getting steamy. (Source: Variety)
