Emily Browning’s career transition from her charming and acerbic turn in Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events through Zack Snyder’s Baby Doll in Sucker Punch will find its next touchstone with Julia Leigh’s dark sex drama Sleeping Beauty, a trailer for which has just appeared. It was back in February 2010 when we reported [...]
Following her delightfully deadpan turn in her role as Violet in Brad Silberling’s big screen adaptation of Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events, Emily Browning is looking to more mature climes, and if the news as reported The Playlist is anything to go by, she’ll have a very different type of role to play [...]
