We Need to Talk About Jennifer: Lawrence Returning to Indie Roots with Possible Lynne Ramsay Project

Date:

Currently in London to promote Lila Neugebauer’s Causeway at the London BFI, Jennifer Lawrence let slip that she has been developing a new project with one of our faves in Lynne Ramsay – a filmmaker she admits to being “obsessed with” as per Screen Daily’s reporting. With her production company Excellent Cadaver (No Hard Feelings, Sue and perhaps Mob Girl), Lawrence could pretty much back an auteur project with meat on the bone. Currently Lynne Ramsay has Stone Mattress on the stove and possibly Polaris next with Joaquin Phoenix and Rooney Mara. Could this future project with Lawrence be the epic environmental horror that was alluding to back when she was doing the press rounds for You Were Never Really Here? Don’t hold your breath on whatever this project is – both the actress and filmmaker have a lot of projects on the plate.
