We Have Always Lived in the Space Castle

.
Striking out hard and quick against the common conception that it is hard out there for straight white men, John Krasinski has already lined up a new film project just a couple of days after his horror movie A Quiet Place debuted to a whole lotta B.O. (Read my review of the movie, which is perfectly fine, right here.) According to DH John will tackle Life on Mars, a sci-fi adaptation of Cecil Castellucci's short-story titled "We Have Always Lived on Mars" (that's a nice shout-out to Shirley Jackson, Cecil) which is about, you guessed it, people living on Mars. With a Total Recall twist (sadly, as far as I know, I do not mean there will be three-breasted prostitutes) - it's about one of the colonists, a woman, suddenly realizing she can breath Martian air. Hmmm... I wonder if the woman character might be a good fit for an "Emily Blunt" type?

Honestly, at this point, I think all female roles are perfect for an "Emily Blunt"-type. Girl is UNSTOPPABLE
