We have some AMAZING news to share! Brooklynn has been cast in Neil Burger’s upcoming film The Marsh King’s Daughter, based on the bestselling novel by Karen Dionne. The best part is… Brooklynn gets to play the younger version of Daisy Ridley‘s character Helena! Brooklynn is a HUGE Star Wars fan, and especially loves Daisy and her portrayal of Rey. The two met previously at a Q&A for The Florida Project in 2017, where Daisy surprised her during an interview!
Stay tuned for more info on this exciting new project which just started production this week in Canada. Congrats Brooklynn!
“‘The Marsh King’s Daughter’ follows Helena (Ridley), a woman living a seemingly ordinary life with her husband and young daughter, but hiding a dark secret within: that her father is the infamous ‘Marsh King,’ the man who kept Helena and her mother captive in the wilderness for years. Helena is forced to face her demons when her father escapes from prison unexpectedly. Knowing that he will hunt for her and her family, Helena must find the strength to confront her past and the man she once idolized.”
