Universal Pictures International Productions is partnering with See-Saw Films on the biopic, which is set to be an authentic and humanistic portrait of one of the most enigmatic and misunderstood spiritual figures in history.

Yup. Stupid speculation with a story designed to elicit the most controversy in order to attract attention. Just like that Dan Brown crap.

Dan Brown stuff is fiction though

Sounds like they are trying to push this out as semi historically accurate or at least what they think is

On a related note, Rooney Mara is really pretty when she wants to be.

Authentic feeling more like it. Either they are going to make a bible movie, or more likely they are going to make up a story with a character named Mary Magdalene that feels less spiritual, supernatural, or religious than the typical bible story. It's still fiction. There isn't an abundance of official records from back then.

Sounds pretty damn stupid. She was basically an extra in the bible IIRC.

Brown himself played up the hysteria though at the time.

No, Sony hired someone mid last year to adapt to the 4th book not by Larson, The Girl in the Spiders Web, and that's the next movie, they aren't doing them in order. Mara isn't doing the role of Lisbeth either, sources said they've pegged Ex-Machina‘s star Alicia Vikander for the role.

Complete frick up IMO.

Agreed. I thought Mara killed it as Lisbeth.

Meh. Kate Mara is really attractive even when she's trying not to be. Poor Rooney got the bad name and the bad looks in the family.

Yeah, she's only named after both NFL owner relatives instead of just one.
