Agreed! I think before Rachel, Julia was the first actress I watched all movies of just because she was in it :)

Yay! A good reason! :)

Me too :) Julia has some exciting projects coming up, including ones she will produce. Maybe she will keep Rachel in mind with casting ;) :fingers_crossed:

I know I'm being greedy now, but I'm already getting impatient for Rachel's next project while I also realize that we might not get one this year. I mean, she already filmed two movies this year, so she might take a break but I hope she will start filming a new one this summer/fall :)

Very excited that Rachel has a lot of opportunities with Julia! :)

Charlize Theron is currently promoting "Atomic Blonde" which was previously titled 'The Coldest City'. Back in 2012 Rachel was in early talks for the project:

Rachel McAdams has entered early talks to star in the upcoming Oni comic book adaptation COLD CITY.

The project, which is also in talks with director Daniel Espinosa (Easy Money, Safe House), centers on a young female MI6 agent who is sent undercover into Berlin during the Cold War to investigate the murder of a fellow officer over a rumored list of double agents. McAdams would play the lead, with casting lists currently being prepped for the other leading roles.

Rachel's attachment fell through and Charlize became attached and she also produced it. I found some interesting tidbits in her Variety cover story:

Quote:

“Atomic Blonde” was a passion project for Theron that she produced through her company Denver & Delilah Prods. (named after her dogs), run by Beth Kono and AJ Dix. She spent five years developing the material, after reading a treatment based on a then unpublished graphic novel named “The Coldest City.” She hired screenwriter Kurt Johnstad to expand on the character, an enigmatic woman named Lorraine who is ruthless and tough. And she brought on David Leitch (“John Wick”) as the director, after interviewing both men and women, to choreograph dazzling fight sequences on a shoestring budget — for the genre — of $30 million.

Yet even the budget of the movie points to gender disparity in the industry. When Matt Damon and Vin Diesel flex their muscles on-screen, the studios line up with buckets of dough. Theron, who is making $10 million a film after starring in hits like “Snow White and the Huntsman” and “Prometheus,” took a pay cut in exchange for a percentage of box office receipts.

To me, it seems to imply that the project only happened because Charlize produced it herself and it was her "passion project" and being actively involved in the whole filmmaker process.

I hope it happens! :fingers_crossed:

Impatiently waiting for Rachel's next 'rumored' project. I don't expect it, if I'm being honest, but I hope she will film another project this year! :)

I'm being greedy but I can't believe we don't even have a rumored project she was (somewhat) attached to right now.

I hope we get it soon! :)
