Damien Chazelle's wild 1920s epic Babylon looks at how Hollywood shifted from silent movies to traditional sound pictures, while also showing off the debauchery and chaos that went on behind the scenes.
Margot Robbie Looks Effortlessly Lulled As She Touches Down In Sydney Ahead Of The Babylon Premiere
And while the bulk of the film revolves around Nellie's relationship with Manny (Diego Calva), it almost looked very different because Chazelle initially cast Emma Stone to play the up-and-coming star.
Chazelle recently spoke to ahead of the UK release of Babylon Friday, and explained that he originally cast Stone in the film, which would've reunited them for the first time since La La Land, but she had to drop out because of a scheduling conflict.
The director said: I mean with Margot [Robbie], initially it was Emma Stone, and then scheduling changed. But outside of Emma or Margot, it's hard to imagine anyone else doing the role.

And certainly now that I see Margot and the role, it's hard to imagine anyone other than her doing it. So I think things happen for a reason, Chazelle added.
With Brad, he was the first one attached to the project [and] stuck with it even when we had to shut down and wait for a while to shoot. It's hard to imagine many other people other than him doing his role, the director said.
The Whiplash, La La Land, and First Man director pointed out that there's a lot of luck involved with getting actors on board, adding: So, it's a lot of luck that comes in. That's the sort of under-reported aspect of moviemaking where sometimes the stars — forgive the pun — have to align.

Chazelle also spoke to about the underwhelming critical reaction to the movie, noting that he knew the movie was gonna ruffle some feathers and get some people mad, and I think that's good. More movies should do that.
But it's good to have something that stimulates conversation and debate and a lot of fierce opinions on either side, Chazelle said.There are plenty of celebrity doppelgangers in Hollywood you're probably positive you've never seen in the same room before. Bryce Dallas Howard and Jessica Chastain. Dermot Mulroney and Dylan McDermott. And of course, the cadre of blonde-haired, big-eyed women who all kind of look like Margot Robbie. But now we'll get to see one of Robbie's doppelgangers show up in the same room as her, with the casting of Samara Weaving in the Damien Chazelle-directed 1920s Hollywood drama Babylon, which already stars Robbie and Brad Pitt.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Weaving, Max Minghella, Lukas Haas, Flea (of Red Hot Chili Peppers fame), Rory Scovel, Eric Roberts, P.J. Byrne, and Damon Gupton have joined the now-sprawling cast of

Most of the newcomers' roles are being kept under wraps, but THR reports that Minghella is playing Irving Thalberg, the famous real-life producer who was MGM's head of production in the 1920s and 1930s and whom the Oscars' prestigious Irving G. Thalberg Award is named after. It seems like a fine enough role for the

Cast members apart from the fact that Weaving and Robbie are probably going to cause a lot of confusion by appearing in the same movie. If they're not playing sisters or some kind of relation, it would be ridiculous. But apart from looking a lot like Robbie (which, to be fair, she shares that distinction with like five other people), Weaving is a rising talent in her own right, giving a breakout performance in 2019's fantastic
