Evan Rachel Wood plays Lucy in upcoming film “Across The Universe;” Wood wound up singing both her audition songs in the movie.
Her role, Lucy, an American teen who falls for her brother’s British buddy, Jude (Jim Sturgess), amid the social upheaval of the 1960s. In real life, Wood grew up listening to the Beatles as her parents lived through the 1960s when the Beatles redefined pop music.
Rachel Wood visits fuse’s “The Sauce” in New York city yesterday, what’s with the white gloves? Anyway, I wonder often enough why is Rachel Wood with Marilyn Manson???
Most of the story is told through Beatles songs, with the film featuring only half an hour of spoken dialogue. The cast includes U2 singer Bono as Dr. Robert, a psychedelic guru who sings “I Am the Walrus,” Joe Cocker doing “Come Together,” and Salma Hayek, the star of Taymor’s “Frida,” in a wild production number set to “Happiness Is a Warm Gun.”
Across the Universe in theaters on September 21st, 2007
