The film is still looking for a stateside distributor while Lionsgate will release it in the UK in the fall of 2012 and as production moves forward Deadline has debuted a pair of first look images of Bonham Carter as the iconic Miss Havisham. Shrouded in the aging fabric of her wedding dress designed by Beatrix Aruna Pasztor, Deadline’s Tim Adler describes the images writing:
I read “Great Expectations” in high school but as far as filmed adaptations go I believe David Lean’s Oscar-winning 1947 adaptation is the only one I’ve watched and it’s well worth it. It will be interesting to see where this one ends up and it’s a bit surprising it hasn’t found an American distributor yet considering we’re talking about classic material and an impressive cast. All that said, have a look at the two new images below and you can click on either of them for a larger look. Show Comments |
