Connie Nielsen talks Return to Sender and Ice Harvest

Our buddies from BlackFilm had the chance to talk to Connie Nielsen. Those lucky guys. ;). For those who can't find a face to the name -> Be ashamed !. Connie portrayed Keanu Reeves' "sister" in "The Devils Advocate". At least now it has to ring in your brain. Never again a woman has been that seductive on the silver screen.

But before i begin to drool let me tell you more about the news. While promoting "The Great Raid", the actress talked about her upcoming movies "Return to Sender", "The Ice Harvest" and "The Situation". Here's a little clip from the interview:

What do you have coming up next?

CN: "Ice Harvest" is coming up, and then "Return to Sender" and also "The Situation". In "Ice Harvest", I’m a strip joint owner in Kansas City and the film happens on Christmas Eve and there’s not a lot of customers in my place so I’m annoyed and really hate Christmas and then John Cusack’s character comes into my bar and he’s like one of those regulars who just watches the girls and leave, and this time I realize there’s something going on in him cause he’s sort of like an idiot and so he looks a little too happy with himself so I smell something’s up; and there’s two million dollars up that’s he stolen from a gangster and the film is all about who ends up with those two million dollars.

His partner in crime is Billy Bob Thornton who’s the handler of my competition of strip clubs and there’s also some blackmail scheme in the whole thing with some politician who wants to ban strip clubs but was photographed having sex with a baby blonde kind of thing.

And "Return to Sender"?

"Return to Sender" is a death row drama based on a true story where this guy who was arrested for impersonating a person so that the death row, the ones who are gong to be executed would write him their last letter and he would sell them on auctions and I play a woman who’s a baby killer who comes up for execution and Aidan Quinn plays this guy who’s trying to get my confidence so he can get my letter and sell it but then he then realizes that there’s something wrong with my story and probably not who I say I am and he has to find out what that is and gets involve my life. The thing is that you write a lot about yourself in that last letter and there is a market for all kinds of letter and documents.
