This Friday Jessica, alongside director Niki Caro and producer Kim Zubick attended a The Zookeeper’s Wife screening in LA and we finally have some photos added.
Latest Monday (March 27) Jessica attended a press conference for The Zookeeper’s Wife in West Hollywood. We finally have some photos taken during the interview.
Jessica is on cover of Backstage magazine, it its March 30 issue, as part of The Zookeeper’s Wife promotion. She did a very good interview to Jack Smart, including quotes about her from Niki Caro.
“This year’s amazing, but there’s a lot of congratulating going on,” she says. “A lot of slapping each other on the back and going, ‘Isn’t it good? We’re so diverse!’ When that stops, when you have diversity in films and the congratulating stops, then something’s changed. In the future, I’m hoping we won’t see people going, ‘Can you believe it?’ ”
Hence the actor’s careful selection of films. Whether it’s as part of a cast of strong women like in “The Help”—“Female ensembles have a higher percentage of getting their money back than male ensembles,” she points out—or under a female director like Caro, Bigelow, Liv Ullmann (“Miss Julie”), or Susanna White (the upcoming “Woman Walks Ahead”), Chastain chooses projects to shift Hollywood’s status quo.
Then there are her politically relevant roles, be they subtle (“A Most Violent Year”) or thrillingly overt (“Miss Sloane”). “Interstellar” and “The Martian,” Chastain’s back-to-back sci-fi drama hits, found her playing a quantum physicist and commander on a Mars mission, respectively. “My joy is that young girls are now saying [to me], ‘I want to be an astronaut,’ ” she says.
We have now the scans added in our gallery, but you can also read the full interview in our press archive.
Jessica attended the 2017 CinemaCon Big Screen Achievement Awards on Thursday night (March 30) at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. She looked stunning in a Zuhair Murad dress, to be honored with the award for Female Star of the Year.
We have in our gallery some HQ images added.
Remember before Jessica’s birthday, when she posted on her Instagram Stories about getting a few days break? Well, it seems she meant what we call “weekends” because she’s back on full force now!
Today she attended alongside director Aaron Sorkin the STX presentation at CinemaCon in Las Vegas, to talk about “Molly’s Game“. According to attendees on twitter, they showed some footage – the filming was just wrapped. According to Jessica, “The film explores female power & what that means in society. That’s something I’m very inspired by.”
