Thandie Newton Talks About "The Truth About Charlie"
Date: July 11, 2006
"The Truth About Charlie" stars Thandie Newton as a young woman desperately searching for answers about her husband's murder and a missing fortune. Mark Wahlberg costars as the mysterious 'helping hand' who is ready to assist her in her search for the truth.
Writer/producer/director Jonathan Demme admits the chance to see Thandie Newton in the role of Regina Lampert (originally played by Audrey Hepburn in "Charade") was the key motivation behind making "The Truth About Charlie."
"I was really keyed to making another movie with Thandie. She's truly a great young actress: charming, deep, incredibly smart, funny, so totally classy, and ready to try anything as an artist, really fearless, and equipped with a remarkably imaginative point of view on character and story," said Demme, adding, "When I saw 'Charade' again, I immediately felt that here was a superb vehicle for this exceptionally gifted and thus-far underutilized actress."
