Fassbender is also attached to play the iconic role of Heathcliff in Wuthering Heights.
That project, however, has been hit by high-profile departures.
Helmer John Maybury ankled recently after creative disagreements over the script. Natalie Portman, who had been set to play Heathcliff’s ill-fated lover Cathy, left the project in May because of a scheduling clash. Aussie thesp Abbie Cornish has since taken over that role.
Pic producer, U.K.-based Ecosse Films, is seeking a new helmer and hopes to make an announcement in the coming weeks.
We have launched a new look her on Abbie Cornish Online, it was designed by the highly talented SLO Designs and we hope you like it as much as we do! The layout features an image from Abbie’s 2008 Details photoshoot.
Furthermore we have updated pages with the latest news/changes. Something worth noting: It was confirmed to us by Abbie Cornish’s manager that she is no longer attached to Last Battle Dreamer and also confirmed Abbie will be involved with Wuthering Heights as Cathy!
Lastly I’d like to make mention that this month marks the second year anniversary of the original opening of Abbie Cornish Online! While the site was re-launched on it’s own domain in May of 2007, it was originally started as a small tribute by Riikka in August 2006. We’d like to thank all of the visitors for you warm feedback and we hope to only continue serving Abbie fans for many years to come! And of course we owe it all to Miss Cornish herself for being such a talented and inspiring lady!
On behalf of all of her fans, I’d like to wish Miss Cornish a very happy birthday! She turns 26-years old today. All the best, Abbie, we hope you have a fabulous day among your loved ones!
Edit: According to People, Abbie celebrated her birthday in Las Vegas with Ryan Phillippe. Sounds like she did indeed have a special day!
According to DailyMail, Abbie has signed on to the film version of Wuthering Heights! Natalie Portman and Sienna Miller were rumored for this at one point. Hopefully we’ll hear a confirmation from a more official source soon.
Fast-rising thespian Michael Fassbender is already signed to play the brooding Heathcliff, and Australian actress Abbie Cornish has agreed to play Cathy.
Also, Stop-Loss is now on Region 1 DVD! I have picked up the film and I will be making screencaptures as soon as possible.
Xavier Rudd, Torquay’s roots music superstar, and Hollywood starlet Abbie Cornish are Australia’s sexiest vegetarians.
