We’ve got a real female triple threat, as Variety reports that Emily Watson, Anna Friel (Pushing Daisies), and Lena Headey (Game of Thrones) have all signed for The Poisoners, a period piece written and directed by Jon Amiel (Entrapment, The Core). What kind of period piece might this be? With a story that follows “a group of women who only have German POWs for company when their husbands go off to war,” I’m inclined to guess this is about conflicted love. Only you can decide if that’s a plus or a minus.
No matter what direction they take, though, I’m game for just about any film that brings these three together — if you’ve seen them all in action, you know how promising that lineup really is. (And if you haven’t, let me just say the promise is there. In large quantities.) At least The Poisoners will be well-acted.

While it was first reported that Helen Mirren was supposed to be making the new Jon Amiel film The Angel Makers, it turns out that another superb actress, Charlotte Rampling, will in fact be playing the lead role. I've read some conflicting reports about the origins of this movie, but tt seems there is a book written by Jessica Gregson that is actually based on a historic crime called The Angel Makers of Nagyrév. Here's more details (http://www.screendaily.com/ScreenDailyArticle.aspx?intStoryID=40746 Category=467) from Screen Daily: Charlotte Rampling will star alongside Daniel Bruhl and Anna Friel in London-based The Producers' First World War dark comedy Angel Makers, which Jon Amiel will direct. Benno Furmann, Moritz Bleibtreu, Anne-Marie Duff and John Hurt round out the key cast. The Producers principal Jeanna Polley is producing and is currently scouting for locations.
