A Little Chaos

Winslet and Rickman starred in Sense and Sensibility, and are back on the screen together in this new period drama... however, this will be the first time that Winslet has been directed by Rickman.

Yes, Rickman is back in the director's chair for only his second feature film, which comes seventeen years after he made his debut with The Winter Guest.

Winslet is set to take on the central role of Madame Sabine De Barra in the film, and is joined on the cast list by Rickman, Helen McCrory, Stanley Tucci, Matthias Schoenaerts, and Jennifer Ehle.

Madame Sabine De Barra (Winslet) is an unlikely candidate for landscape architect of the still-to-be-completed Palace of Versailles. She has little time for the classical, ordered designs of the man who hires her, the famous architect Le Nôtre (Schoenaerts).

However, as she works on her creation, she finds herself drawn to the enigmatic Le Nôtre and forced to negotiate the perilous rivalries and intricate etiquette of the court of King Louis XIV (Rickman).

But Sabine is made of strong stuff; her honesty and compassion help her to overcome both the challenges of her newfound popularity, and an unspeakable tragedy from her past, to win the favour of the Sun King and the heart of Le Nôtre.

A Little Chaos is one of a series of movies that we are going to be seeing Winslet star in over the next year - she has also completed work on Insurgent, Triple Nine, and The Dressmaker - and it is great to see her return to the period drama.

A Little Chaos is released 17th April.
