Amanda Seyfried Confirmed For Red Riding Hood
We reported back in August Leonardo DiCaprio's Appian Way banner is developing a Gothic re imagining of Little Red Riding Hood with screenwriter David Leslie Johnson.
Big Love star Amanda Seyfried to take on the lead character of Red Riding Hood. During the Red Carpet at last nights Oscar Awards she let E! know that she is confirmed for the role of Red Riding Hood.
It's amazing. It's gothic. It's dark. It's beautiful. You get to play someone that's unlike you...It's a period piece and it's going to be amazing.
The best-known version of the story—in which a wolf disguises himself to fool a girl delivering food to her sick grandmother in the forest—was published in the 19th century by the Brothers Grimm. Earlier oral versions of the tale, which date back to the Middle Ages, are far darker and sometimes involve a werewolf rather than a wolf; the first published version, by Charles Perrault, concludes with Red Riding Hood eaten by the wolf, with no happy ending.
