Orlando Bloom is certainly still listed in the role of Joe. Here are the major cast members listed:

i guess it\’s scheduling conflict. seyfried is currently filming the \”now\” movie and \”albert nobbs\” will start filming next month. so, it figures why they have to replace her.

what i have also red in her interviews before was that, she was personally handpicked by close and she was offered the role by rodrigo to play the supporting role.

also seyfried and close were directed by rodrigo in their critical acclaim ensemble movie \”nine lives\” and seyfried in \”big love\”. so there are not unknown to each other.

Good, I like Wasikowska more than Seyfried. A movie like this could have help Seyfried to expand from doing the same things she always does. However, if there is a conflict, that is understandable.

More importantly, it would seem, from the photo above, that Mia Wasikowska has a secret second career as shrill-voiced synth-popster La Roux. Who knew?
