Girl, Interrupted

It seems all Carey Mulligan does these days is work, work, look gorge, and work.

Good for her.

The actress will return to the New York stage (she was in the 2008 revival of The Seagull) in the spring in an adaptation of Ingmar Bergman’s 1961 film Through a Glass Darkly. The show will premiere off-Broadway on May 13. She’s set to play a young woman who loses her mind because of a psychiatric illness and spirals out of control during a vacation to Sweden with her husband, father, and brother.

“It’s an incredible descent into insanity,” Mulligan said. “It’s horribly scary and I have no idea what I’m going to do. Everyone wants to play someone with a problem.”

Sounds like a meaty part for a more than capable talent.

Break a leg, girl.
