Both movies are in the running for the biggest award of the ceremony—best feature. They’ll be competing against The Green Knight, Pig, and Test Pattern. The last movie is one of the major competitors with a total of three nominations, together with CODA and Red Rocket.

The Lost Daughter and Passing both owe most of their nominations to the amazing actresses that star in them. Olivia Colman and Jessie Buckley received nominations for their performances in The Lost Daughter, and they’ll be competing against Passing’s Tessa Thompson and Ruth Negga in their respective categories. Gyllenhaal and Hall are also in the running in two categories together—breakthrough director and best screenplay.

Actress Kristen Stewart, director Jane Campion, and the cast of The Harder They Fall are set to receive tribute awards.

The Gotham Independent Film Awards return on November 29th.

The drama is based on Elena Ferrante’s novel of the same name and it stars Olivia Coleman, who plays a middle-aged woman vacationing and having flashbacks to her days as a young wife and mother. Her young self is played by Jessie Buckley.

The trailer shows Coleman on a “working holiday”, meeting Dakota Johnson’s Nina and telling her about her two daughters. She tells Nina that “children are a crushing responsibility.”

The cast also includes Dagmara Domińczyk, Peter Sarsgaard, Paul Mescal, Oliver Jackson-Cohen, Ed Harris, and Jack Farthing.

Gyllenhaal wrote, directed, and produced the film. This is the first film she wrote and directed. She first came into the spotlight in 2002’s Secretary and since then she’s become known for her roles in Candy and The Deuce.

Gyllenhaal produced the film with Charles Dorfman, Osnat Handelsman-Keren, and Talia Kleinhendler. Dimitris Birbilis was line producer, and David Gilbery and Marlon Vogelgesang executive produced.

Multiple outlets confirm Maggie Gyllenhaal has been cast in the Oscar-nominated filmmaker’s film about the king of rock ‘n’ roll. Gyllenhaal is set to play Gladys Presley, the mother of Elvis Presley. 

The drama is described as a story that will “delve into their complex dynamic spanning over 20 years, from Presley’s rise to fame to his unprecedented stardom, against the backdrop of the evolving cultural landscape and the loss of innocence in America.”

Gyllenhaal joins previously announced Austin Butler, Tom Hanks, and Olivia DeJonge. 

Luhrmann will direct from a script he wrote with Craig Pearce.

The indie feature is set in late 1940s Chicago. Gyllenhaal (The Kindergarten Teacher) is set to play Dr. Edith Farnsworth, whose project with the Bauhaus architect Mies Van Der Rohe, played by Fiennes, to build the first glass house led them into a love affair like none other. 

Farnsworth House will be directed by Ricard Press, who will also be penning the screenplay. Gyllenhaal is producing with Albert Berger and Ron Yerxa though Bona Fide Productions. 

“I am always looking for projects about real women, with complicated, interesting minds,” Gyllenhaal said. “They are far and few between and Farnsworth House is a rare find. In Edith Farnsworth is the opportunity to express a full and exciting spectrum of thoughts and feelings. But there is also the opportunity for the most exciting kind of artistic experience: a collaboration. Farnsworth House is a love story between two iconoclasts, two equally interesting players.”

Farnsworth House is currently in pre-produciton.
