New pics from Greta Gerwig’s ‘Little Women’ featuring Saoirse Ronan, Timothée Chalamet, Laura Dern, Florence Pugh, Emma Watson, Meryl Streep, Eliza Scanlen
Sony/Columbia has released a huge batch of first look pics of Little Women, Greta Gerwig’s adaptation of the timeless novel Louisa May Alcott, which is set for release on Christmas Day.
This is the third major adaptation of the novel with the 1933 version starring Katharine Hepburn and the 1994 version starring Winona Ryder, each as Alcott’s protagonist Jo March. For Gerwig, she went right to her Lady Bird star, Academy Award nominee Saoirse Ronan.
For Gerwig’s period-set version, she also brought on Oscar heavyweights Meryl Streep and Laura Dern with Academy Award nominee Timothée Chalamet, Florence Pugh, Eliza Scanlen and Emma Watson.
The film is produced by Denise Di Novi, Robin Swicord, Arnon Milchan and Amy Pascal and executive produced by Adam Merims. The top notch technical crew includes Academy Award winning composer Alexandre Desplat, Academy Award winning costume designer Jacqueline Durran and Academy Award nominee Jess Gonchor heading up the production design.
Erik Anderson is the founder/owner and Editor-in-Chief of AwardsWatch and has always loved all things Oscar, having watched the Academy Awards since he was in single digits; making lists, rankings and predictions throughout the show. This led him down the path to obsessing about awards. Much later, he found himself in film school and the film forums of GoldDerby, and then migrated over to the former Oscarwatch (now AwardsDaily), before breaking off to create AwardsWatch in 2013.
He is a Rotten Tomatoes-approved critic, accredited by the Cannes Film Festival, Telluride Film Festival, Toronto International Film Festival and more, is a member of the International Cinephile Society (ICS), The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics (GALECA), Critics Choice Association (CCA), San Francisco Bay Area Film Critics Circle (SFBAFCC) and the International Press Academy. Among his many achieved goals with AwardsWatch, he has given a platform to underrepresented writers and critics and supplied them with access to film festivals and the industry and calls the Bay Area his home where he lives with his husband and son.
