The wonder duo is back together for Susanne
Bier's adaptation of the New York Times bestselling novel by Ron Rash, Serena,
which stars Bradley Cooper (first part of the duo) as George and Jennifer
Lawrence (second part) as Serena, as a newlywed couple in the 1930' that travel
to North Carolina to gain control of the timber industry. Infertility and infidelity
lead Serena to plot the murder of George's illegitimate son while trying to
keep their land from being taken by the government.
There's currently no release date for
Serena, which also stars Toby Jones and Rhys Ifans.
As a fan of both actors and of Silver
Lining Playbook and American Hustle, i'm excited to see what Cooper and
Lawrence will bring to the table.

Serena Official Synopsis:
The film follows newlyweds George
(Cooper) and Serena Pemberton (Lawrence) who travel from Boston to the
mountains of North Carolina where they begin to build a timber empire in 1929.
Serena soon shows herself to be the equal of any man: overseeing crews, hunting
rattle-snakes, even saving a man’s life in the wilderness. Together, this king
and queen rule their dominion, killing or vanquishing all who stand in the way
of their ambitions. But when Serena learns that she can never bear a child, she
sets out to murder the woman who bore George a son before his marriage. And
when she starts to suspect that George is protecting his illegitimate family,
the Pembertons’ intense, passionate marriage begins to unravel as the story
moves toward its shocking reckoning.
