Miral

I'm sooooo excited about this new entrance! Do you know what I just found out? Freida Pinto is coming to East Jerusalem! A lot of you is wondering who is Freida Pinto... She is Latika (LATIKAAAAA) from Slumdog Millionaire! And she is coming to film, with the great Palestinian actress, Hiam Abbas, and the movie is directed by the great Julian Schnabel (The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, Before night falls), and they are making a movie about... My Old School! Could it be more orgasmic?

'Slumdog' star boards Schnabel pic

Freida Pinto has joined the cast of Julian Schnabel’s “Miral.” Pic is an adaptation of Italo-Palestinian Rula Jebreal’s book about Hind Husseini, who founded an orphanage in Jerusalem in the wake of the 1948 partition of Palestine and the creation of the state of Israel. Schnabel wrote the screenplay. Palestinian thesp Hiam Abbas will play Husseini (Daily Variety, Feb. 1).

Pic will lense in Israel and the Palestinian territories. Principal photography begins April 19.Jon Kilik will produce with Pathe financing. The Gallic mini-major has also brought Israeli helmer and producer Eran Riklis aboard in a production services capacity.
