‘The Forgiven': Why Jessica Chastain Hoped She and Ralph Fiennes Could at Least ‘Be Friends’ (Video)
Jessica Chastain was eager to work with Ralph Fiennes again on their new movie “The Forgiven,” the first time they’d shared the screen in more than 10 years. But this time she joked with him that she had a condition: their characters had to at least like each other a little.
On the Shakespearean drama “Coriolanus,” Chastain and Fiennes played a married couple “who don’t really connect,” as she put it. This time around, they’re a couple on the brink of a divorce, but at least they have a more polite backstory this time around.
“I was joking with him and said, the next time we work together, please let’s be friends, or at least let’s be married people who actually like each other,” Chastain told TheWrap’s Steve Pond at the Toronto International Film Festival.
