Rachel Weisz

Rachel Weisz is in talks for a role in The Light Between Oceans.

The Light Between Oceans is set to be the latest film for director Derek Cianfrance, his first since The Place Beyond The Pines.

Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander are already on board the project, but now The Wrap have reported that Wesiz is in talks for a role.

The movie is based on the novel by M.L. Stedman, and is set after the Second World War. The movie follows a lighthouse keeper and his wife who discover a dead man and a baby that wash up in a boat. The couple take in the child and raise it as their own.

Weisz is believed to be looking to play the mother of the baby. This would be the first time that Weisz has teamed up with Cianfrance.

Oz the Great and Powerful was the last time that we saw Weisz on the big screen, but she has completed work on The Lobster.

The Oscar winning actress is currently filming The Early Years, with Paul Dano and Michael Caine.
