Mark Rylance To Star In Spielberg Movie
Mark Rylance, who, like Audra McDonald, wins a Tony if he so much as coughs on a Broadway stage, will play the title role in “The BFG,” director Steven Spielberg’s adaptation of Roald Dahl’s classic children’s novel. The story follows a young girl, the Queen of England, and a giant, called the BFG, who set out to capture the evil, man-eating giants who are taking over the human world. Melissa Mathison adapted the book.
