The cast of Damien Chazelle’s Babylon movie is filling out.

Deadline just revealed nine new stars that have joined the pic including Katherine Waterston, Max Minghella, and Samara Weaving.

The site also revealed that Flea, Rory Scovel, Lukas Haas, Eric Roberts, P.J. Byrne and Damon Gupton will also appear in the film opposite Margot Robbie, Brad Pitt, Diego Calva, Jovan Adepo, and Li Jun Li.

Almost all the roles and details of the plot are being kept under wraps at this point in time, however it’s reported that Babylon will be an R-rated drama set in the shifting moment in Hollywood when the industry turned from silent film to talkies.

Damien will be directing and writing the script, with Olivia Hamilton, Matt Plouffe, and Marc Platt producing. Tobey Maguire, Helen Estabrook and Adam Siegel are all executive producers on the movie.

Babylon is currently set for a January 2022 release date.

Margot actually replaced this other actress in the movie.

Katherine Waterston is one of the children of Law & Order star Sam Waterston and is opening up about the pressures of being a second generation actor in the family.

The 41-year-old actress, who has appeared in films like Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them, Inherent Vice, and The World To Come, revealed that her father and his work did influence her choice to study acting formally.

“It was really important for me to study and then it was at least as important for me to throw it all away, sort of abandon everything I’d learned,” Katherine shared in a recent interview with Collider.

She adds that “in a way, maybe studying acting was just some kind of strange exercise for myself to prove to myself and to anyone around who was paying attention – although I don’t think anyone really was [laughs] – just how serious I was about it.”

Katherine muses that it “maybe had something to do with being a second generation actor, that I didn’t want to be perceived as some kind of silly dilettante who is bopping around and hanging off the coattails of her dad, that I was interested and really trying to be good at this thing.”

The World to Come, also starring Vanessa Kirby, centers on Abigail and her new neighbor Tallie, in the 19th century, who find themselves irrevocably drawn to each other.

The film is available now On Demand and in select theaters.

The trailer for Katherine Waterston and Vanessa Kirby‘s new period drama The World to Come has been released.

In the movie, the two actresses play lovers while Casey Affleck and Christopher Abbott portray their husbands.

Here’s the synopsis: “In this powerful 19th century romance set in the American Northeast, Abigail (Waterston), a farmer’s wife, and her new neighbor Tallie (Kirby) find themselves irrevocably drawn to each other. A grieving Abigail tends to her withdrawn husband Dyer (Affleck) as free-spirit Tallie bristles at the jealous control of her husband Finney (Abbott), when together their intimacy begins to fill a void in each other’s lives they never knew existed. Directed by Mona Fastvold and scripted by Jim Shepard and Ron Hansen, The World to Come explores how isolation is overcome by the intensity of human connection.”

If you missed it, Vanessa is getting a lot of Oscar buzz for her other new movie, which was just released on Netflix!

The World to Come will be released in theaters on February 12 and on digital March 2.

Vanessa Kirby wears a plunging black suit for the premiere of her new movie The World to Come on Sunday (September 6) in Venice, Italy.

The 32-year-old actress was joined by co-stars Katherine Waterson and Christopher Abbott as they premiered their new movie at the 2020 Venice Film Festival.
