EXCLUSIVE: Kathryn Newton and Cole Sprouse are set to star in Focus’ Lisa Frankenstein, directed by Zelda Williams from a script written by Oscar winner Diablo Cody. Principal photography is slated to begin later this summer.

Cody will write and serve as a producer alongside Mason Novick, who will produce via his MXN Entertainment banner. The film reunites Cody and Novick who previously collaborated on films including Tully, Young Adult, Jennifer’s Body and Juno. Jeff Lampert will serve as executive producer. Focus Features’ VP Production and Development Michelle Momplaisir will serve as the creative executive on the project.

Sprouse can still be seen on his hit CW show Riverdale, which will have its final-season premiere later this year. On the film side, he most recently starred in the HBO Max movie Moonshot.

Best known for her breakout role in HBO’s Big Little Lies, Newton is set to make her MCU debut in Marvel’s Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. She was most recently seen in the Universal and Blumhouse horror comedy Freaky opposite Vince Vaughn.

The film marks Williams’ feature-length directorial debut.

Harper’s Bazaar UK: Self isolate with… Kathryn Newton

See the video here

American actress Kathryn Newton stars in the next instalment of our new series of self-isolation diaries, where friends of Bazaar share what they’re eating, reading, watching and wearing at home right now.

“If you’re like me you’ll have spent a lot of time looking through all your old stuff, like old journals,” Newton tells us of her time at home during quarantine. “I’ve also been reading a lot. I don’t know if it’s just this time of reflection, but I’ve been going back through what I used to read in high school… It’s really cool that when you open up these books you see those secret doodles that you used to do. I don’t know about you but I was totally a doodler.”

The LA native, who is known for her roles in Big Little Lies, Detective Pikachu and Netflix hit The Society, has enjoyed spending time at home with her three pet dogs (“they’re the people I’ve been hanging out with”) during the pandemic. But the thing she’s missed most? Playing her favourite sport: golf.

“The golf courses have finally opened up so I got to go out there – and you can play if you stay safe,” she explained. “I have some really cute new outfits from my new Polo Ralph Lauren collection, and it’s just a good incentive – I finally get to go and show them off! It’s a great way to get some exercise and just be outside.”

Watch the video above to see what the 22-year-old has been watching, reading and listening to in isolation.
