This Friday, Lionsgate brings to the big screen an adaptation of Jeannette Walls’ New York Times bestseller The Glass Castle. ComingSoon.net got a chance to talk to The Glass Castle cast members Brie Larson (Room), Woody Harrelson (The Hunger Games) and Naomi Watts (King Kong), and you can watch the interviews below.
Chronicling the adventures of an eccentric, resilient and tight-knit family, The Glass Castle is a remarkable story of unconditional love. Oscar winner Brie Larson brings Jeannette Walls’s best-selling memoir to life as a young woman who, influenced by the joyfully wild nature of her deeply dysfunctional father (Woody Harrelson), found the fiery determination to carve out a successful life on her own terms.
The Glass Castle cast also includes Max Greenfield, Sarah Snook and Robin Bartlett. The film, opening in theaters on August 11, was directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, who also co-wrote the screenplay with Andrew Lanham. The film is produced by Gil Netter and Kan Kao from Netter Productions.
Larson will play the lead role in Captain Marvel and was most recently seen in Kong: Skull Island. Harrelson was nominated for Best Supporting Actor for The Messenger and for Best Actor in The People vs. Larry Flynt. Watts is known for her work in the films King Kong, Mulholland Drive, The Ring and The Impossible, for which she was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress.
