Killed-off Spider-Man supporting characters Willem Dafoe and Emma Stone may be in for a team-up. Deadline brings word that Dafoe has entered talks to join Stone in Searchlight and Film4’s adaptation of Alasdair Gray’s Victorian horror pastiche Poor Things. The project will reunite Stone with her always-interesting The Favourite director, Yorgos Lanthimos.
Published in 1992, the postmodern Frankenstein reimagining “tells the incredible story of Belle Baxter, a young woman brought back to life by an eccentric but brilliant scientist.” While it’s said it’s “unknown who Dafoe will play at this time,” given the options, kinda seems like there’s a pretty safe bet…
