A promising woman has earned her the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay, and now Emerald Fennell is preparing his new film.
Deadlinereports that it will be titled Saltburn , and will be able to count on Rosamund Pike as the protagonist.
As for the plot, the information is very scarce: we only know that it will revolve around a large English aristocratic family, an environment that Emerald Fennell should know well, both for his school and work experiences (she played Camilla Shand in The Crown ). Considering Rosamund Pike ‘s background and talent , the latter looks perfect for the British director’s corrosive and sarcastic gaze.
No further details on the project are available, but we will keep you updated.

In 2021, after the success of A Promising Woman , Warner commissioned her to script Zatanna , a project that could be at risk . She also wrote the libretto for Andrew Lloyd Webber ‘s stage musical Cinderella .
