Felicity Jones Talks Warren Beatty's Howard Hughes Movie, 'Hysteria' & More After 'Like Crazy' Gotham Award Win
Here's an article updating us on Felicity winning Breakthrough Actor at the Gotham Awards and her next roles.
Felicity Jones is often compared to her friend Carey Mulligan for being this year's It Girl -- a title perhaps reinforced by her win Monday as Breakthrough Actor at the Gotham Awards -- but Jones hopes to prove she's got longevity with her post-"Like Crazy" choices, even if a lot of them are love interest parts. "The key is working with great directors," Jones told The Playlist following her win. "A film is so many different people and all their talents, but particularly the directors, because of the idiosyncrasies of that person." To that end, Jones reteamed with "Like Crazy" director Drake Doremus for his next film, as yet untitled, in which she would play a character who tempts a married Guy Pearce. "It's a companion piece to 'Like Crazy,' in that it's another aspect of love," she said. "And it's also largely improvised, so it's a variation in that aspect as well. Maybe we can call it 'Like Crazier'!" For Tanya Wexler's upcoming invention-of-the-vibrator comedy "Hysteria," Jones was attracted to the subject matter as well -- "It's stimulating!" she joked -- and welcomed the chance to play against type. As a foil to Maggie Gyllenhaal's character, Jones is part of a love triangle with Hugh Dancy. "I play Maggie's younger sister," Jones said. "She's a prim and proper Victorian woman, very conventional, very conservative, and a bit dim. Hugh thinks he's falling for her, because at first she fits his vision of what is perfect femininity, until he meets Maggie's character. And then you realize that we're not actually right for each other, my character is too stupid for him, and he should be with Maggie." Next on Jones' plate is working with Warren Beatty for his untitled Howard Hughes film, which he wrote and will direct and star in next year. "It's something I'm very excited about," she said. "The story in part is about Howard Hughes, and Warren is Hughes, but the other aspect is two young people who work for him, one of which is my character, and their love story interweaved with their relationship with Hughes, and how he affects both of them." Her counterpart has yet to be cast, she said, but will be decided in "the next few weeks." Justin Timberlake and Alden Ehrenreich are considered the top contenders for the role. "I don't have any say in who it should be, but there's an incredible array of actors to choose from," Jones said. "There are some really talented people out there, so we shall see."Source: http://blogs.indiewire.com/theplaylist/felicity-jones-talks-warren-beattys-howard-hughes-movie-hysteria-more-after-like-crazy-gotham-award-win

Felicity Jones to play Charles Dickens' mistress in The Invisible Woman
Another new film rold for Felicity...
Felicity Jones is set to play Charles Dickens' mistress Nelly Ternan in a movie version of novel 'The Invisible Woman'. Felicity Jones is set to star opposite Ralph Fiennes in a movie about Charles Dickens' mistress. The 'Chalet Girl' actress - who worn the Breakthrough Actor of the Year prize at the Gotham Independent Film Awards in New York earlier this week - has signed on to appear in an adaptation of novel 'The Invisible Woman', about the relationship between the English author and Nelly Ternan. The affair was secret and lasted 13 years until the day of the 'Christmas Carol' writer's death in Rochester, Kent in 1870. Despite the relationship, he was married to Catherine Hogarth from 1835, and the pair had 10 children. Felicity only graduated from Oxford University in 2006, but has quickly amassed a number of big roles, including the critically-acclaimed Anna in 'Like Crazy' and Lady Cordelia Flyte in 'Brideshead Revisited'. Her forthcoming roles include 'Cheerful Weather for the Wedding' - about a young woman about to get married who realises she is making a huge mistake - and an as yet untitled project directed by Drake Doremus.Source: www.femalefirst.co.uk

Who's that girl? Brit actress Felicity Jones is new face of DG
We're going to be seeing a lot more of Felicity in 2012...
Claudia Schiffer, Naomi Campbell and Madonna are a just some of the leading ladies that have starred in Dolce & Gabanna campaigns.Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2067689/Whos-girl-Brit-actress-Felicity-Jones-new-face-D-G.html#ixzz1fB6Dh0g7
But taking a different tactic the Italian luxury brand has employed a little-known actress from Birmingham to front its latest collection.
Sporting a porcelain complexion and chestnut locks, 28-year-old Felicity Jones first made a name for herself in the Nineties children's drama The Worst Witch as Ethel Hallow.
But over recent years she has appeared in a number of Hollywood features working with the likes of Maggie Gyllenhaal,Rupert Everett and Guy Pearce and she has been likened to English roses Keira Knightley and Carey Mulligan.
D&G designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana announced that the rising star will appear in a string of stylish ads promoting a new makeup collection, set to launch next January.
They described Jones as 'representing a heady mix of sensuality, confidence and beauty.'
'Classically beautiful yet modern in attitude, her audacious gaze is impossible to ignore.'
Jones has regularly been spotted wearing D&G designs on the red carpet and she appeared front row at their spring / summer 2012 show in Milan sporting a cream and black lace print cocktail dress, alongside fellow D&G ambassador, Scarlett Johansson.
No images have been released but it is said that they portray the edgy Brit as 'an aristocratic, savage girl'.
Modelling is not a new venture for Jones and she has been snapped by Mario Testino for British brand Burberry and appeared on the cover of Tatler's March 2011 edition with Gossip Girl star and Chalet Girl co-star Ed Westwick.
A spokesperson for the brand said it has not been confirmed if Felicity will replace or join Scarlett Johansson to promote the makeup collection which premiered at Selfridges in 2009.
Currently prices range from £17 for nail varnish to £27 for a lipstick.
Jones will appear on advertisements for the D&G the Khol Collection in the new year.

Startling discoveries
When Felicity Jones read the outline for "Like Crazy," she knew right away she had to be part of it.
"It was something in just the first few lines," says Jones of the role that won her a special jury prize at the Sundance Film Festival. "I understood this character and the type of relationship she was having."
Even if the story and the character were all there for Jones, one thing was not -- dialogue. The lines in "Like Crazy" were all improvised, based on the outline from helmer Drake Doremus.
"I love working with Drake because he's willing to go to those places in a relationship that make people uncomfortable but resonate with so much truth," says Jones.
The British-born thesp -- who last year tackled Shakespeare and turned heads as Miranda in Julie Taymor's "The Tempest" -- was clearly ready for this kind of creative challenge. Though she's just 28, the actress came to the part with more than 15 years of experience.
Jones will be seen in Doremus' next film, which co-stars Guy Pearce and also deals with relationship themes.
"And I think people like watching these kinds of movies," says Jones, "because we're all curious about each other's relationships in a way."http://www.variety.com/article/VR1118045880/
Felicity Jones: the New Brit in Tinseltown
Here's an Elle article.
"The biggest British import since Carey Mulligan, Like Crazy star Felicity Jones takes on Beverly Hills in the flirty palette and bold prints of a true Hollywood romantic"
"The biggest British import since Carey Mulligan, Like Crazy star Felicity Jones takes on Beverly Hills in the flirty palette and bold prints of a true Hollywood romantic"
Twenty-seven-year-old Londoner Felicity Jones is about to have a love affair with Hollywood. It begins this month with the soulful indie Like Crazy, in which she plays a young Brit living in Los Angeles whose euphoric, make-scrapbooks and stay-in-bed-all-Sunday romance with a quietly charming American (Anton Yelchin) dissolves into a tenuous long-distance affair when visa issues send her back across the Atlantic. Director-cowriter Drake Doremus cast Jones after she sent a self-made audition tape from her flat in East London that included a wordless but emotionally pivotal shower scene. “Can I just say,” laughs Jones, “that it was a close-up?” Doremus recalls it as “phenomenal, a bold choice…she can just be and make you feel something without even trying to make you feel something.” Jones’ unfussy but exquisitely authentic turn—improvised with Yelchin from a 50-page outline—earned her a Special Jury Prize for acting at Sundance this January. (The picture itself won the Grand Jury Prize for dramatic feature.) Overnight, she was reportedly courted by filmmakers, producers, and chieftains from studios including the Weinstein Company.
Raised in Birmingham, England, where she and her friends held mock auditions on the playground, Jones landed a part in the UK kids’ series The Worst Witch at age 11 and later graduated to standout supporting roles in highbrow adult fare such as BBC One’s The Diary of Anne Frank miniseries, as Anne’s older sister Margot, and Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant’s ’70s-era Cemetery Junction. This summer, Jones made the risky but respectable choice to take the title role (to raves, we might add) in Luise Miller, an adaptation of Friedrich Schiller’s landmark German tragedy Kabale und Liebe at London’s Donmar Warehouse theater—consequently turning down the lead alongside Julia Roberts in Tarsem Singh’s Snow White project.
Critics stateside took notice of Jones when she played the virginal daughter Miranda to Helen Mirren’s Prospera—an experience Jones calls “the best schooling there is”—in Julie Taymor’s ambitious but divisive big-screen take on The Tempest. Jones brought the Bard’s words to life (treacherous territory for even the most virtuoso thespian) with graceful ease. It didn’t hurt that she looked the part, with green doe eyes, porcelain skin, and a Brigitte Bardot pout that in June prompted Burberry’s creative director, Christopher Bailey, to cast Jones in the brand’s ad campaigns, a position inherited from another English ingenue, Emma Watson.
Next, Jones plays a priggish Victorian in the upcoming Maggie Gyllenhaal–led comedy Hysteria (about the invention of the vibrator) and has already begun filming Doremus’ next movie as a girl infatuated with a married man. On snatching up Jones yet again, Doremus echoes a sentiment that could belong as much to Yelchin’s Like Crazy Romeo as it could to casting agents the industry over: “Oh, I’m not letting her go.”http://www.elle.com/Fashion/Fashion-Spotlight/Felicity-Jones-the-New-Brit-in-Tinseltown
