Here’s Why Julie Delpy Turned Down Richard Linklater’s Fourth ‘Before’ Film
She also teased her newest film with Emilia Clarke, for which she is currently seeking funding.
Acclaimed actress and filmmaker Julie Delpy recently delved into her career in a new interview, and has talked about turning down the fourth installment in Richard Linklater‘s Before series. Speaking with Mathilde Blottière and Hélène Marzolf of the French outlet Telerama (with select parts translated into English by Charles Barfield of The Playlist), she talked about her upcoming film A Dazzling Display of Splendor and how she’s still struggling to get it funded.
“I have a wonderful screenplay, A Dazzling Display of Splendor, about the pioneers of Hollywood. One of the best I’ve written,” she said. Although she has yet to receive funding for the project, she does have one major name already attached. “A talented and well-known English actress, Emilia Clarke, is attached to the project,” she revealed, “And yet I’m still struggling. Non-stop. I have so many movies in my drawers that will never be shot, if you only knew! I’m fed up.”
