Lars Von Trier's "Melancholia" Nabs Stellar Cast

Jul 29, 2010


Kiefer Sutherland, Kirsten Dunst and Stellan Skarsgard will be starring Lars Von Trier's next film, Melancholia.

No, I hope not, but a little shittier than the one I did before," the Danish director told the assembled press pack at the Trollhättan film studios in Sweden, where shooting for Melancholia began last week. This was about as much as the notoriously guarded Von Trier was prepared to give away. "I have a plan and nobody will ever find out what the plan is," he said."
