Ryder Stirs Up 'Embers,' Eyes 'Claire'

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Winona Ryder will star opposite Sean
Connery in director Milos Forman (news)'s "Embers." Production begins
Oct. 8 in Prague.
At the same time, Ryder is also attached to star in the title role of
director Robert Altman's "The Widow Claire," for which discussions with
financiers are taking place.
"Embers," based on Sanor Mari's Hungarian novel of the same name, is
about two men, once best friends, who meet 41 years after last seeing
each other. The duo (Connery and Klaus Maria Brandauer) sit down to
discuss what drove them apart -- a young woman (Ryder) who ended up
marrying Connery's character but may have been having an affair with the
other man.
The events of the story unfold through flashbacks. During the process,
the woman records her thoughts in a diary, which the men have before
them as evidence -- except they have yet to read it.
A domestic distributor has yet to be announced. "Claire" is set against
the backdrop of World War II. Ryder stars as a young widow with two
children who is caught between the affections of two men -- a sweet
young soldier about to go to war and the town's most sought-after
playboy. Jake Gyllenhaal and Matthew McConaughey have met with Altman
about possibly starring opposite Ryder in "Claire."
Ryder's recent credits include the 2002 pair of "Simone" and "Mr.
Deeds," and the 2000 thriller "Lost Souls."
