Mia Wasikowska offered lead in OLDBOY remake

Mia Wasikowska

is continuing her relationship with director

Park Chan-Wook.

 Well, kinda. Twitch is reporting that the

Jane Eyre

actress may be moving from

Oldboy

director Park Chan-Wook's English language debut

Stoker

to

Spike Lee

's remake of the genre classic. Wasikowska has reportedly been offered the lead role of Marie, which had initially been offered to

Rooney Mara

.

If cast, she will star opposite Josh Brolin who plays “a man imprisoned against his will and with no explanation for years before he is released and sets out to find and take revenge on his captor.” Earlier tonight we reported that Clive Owen has been offered the role of the villain.

I never really noticed until now that Wasikowska looks a lot like Mara in terms of body, size and style, so her casting makes sense from that perspective. The casting news on this film continues to get better and better. I am still not sold on Brolin playing the lead, but only time will tell.

What are your thoughts on the cast of this remake so far?
