Carol’s Hubby…and More

Well, since his trip to The Vatican proved futile (Showtime didn’t order the pilot it commissioned last spring to series), Kyle Chandler is sticking to movies.

For now.

And keeping quite the A-List company while he’s at it, too.

Chandler has signed on to co-star as Cate Blanchett’s jealous husband in Carol, the Todd-Haynes adaptation of Patricia Highsmith’s The Price of Salt, the chronicle of the blossoming relationship between an unhappy wife and a department store shopgirl dreaming of a more fulfilling life (Rooney Mara) in 1950s New York City.

And then after that, the Emmy winner will be back on a small screen near you, as the lead in a new for-Netflix psychological thriller from the creators of Damages.

Right on!
