The film adaptation of August: Osage County has a different ending than what is seen in the play, which left some viewers at TIFF confused as to why it was changed.
A new trailer for Oscar contender August: Osage County has been released. The film features a mammoth cast headlined by Julia Roberts and Meryl Streep.
Veteran actor and playwright Sam Shepard is in talks to join the cast of August: Osage County, an adaptation of the Pulitzer and Tony-winning play that already stars Meryl Streep, Julia Roberts, and Benedict Cumberbatch, to name a few.
The two former Oscar winners are set to appear in their first film together, which starts production this fall. The famed TV director John Wells (Shameless, ER, The West Wing) is set to direct the new movie.
