    Weinstein Co to distribute Madonna'sW.E. starring Abbie Cornish, Oscar Isaac and James D'Arcy.

    The Weinstein Company (TWC) made the announcement today that it has acquired rights to distribute Madonna's W.E. in the U.S., a film that marks the singer's directorial debut of a feature film.

    Starring in W.E. are Abbie Cornish, Oscar Isaac, James D'Arcy, Andrea Riseborough, Natalie Dormer, Richard Coyle, James Fox and Laurence Fox. 

    Madonna co-writes alongside Alek Keshishian and produces with Kris Thykier. The announcement was made by TWC Co-Chairman Harvey Weinstein and President of Production Donna Gigliotti. 

    "W.E. is about the nature of true love, and the sacrifices and compromises that are often made.  I've wanted to tell this story for a very long time, and bringing it to life has been a great adventure for me. I'm looking forward to working with Harvey and The Weinstein Company on this film," commented Madonna.  

    W.E. tells the story of two fragile but determined women – Wally Winthrop and Wallis Simpson – separated by more than six decades.  In 1998, lonely New Yorker Wally Winthrop (Abbie Cornish) is obsessed with what she perceives as the ultimate love story: King Edward's VIII's abdication of the British throne for the woman he loved, American divorcée Wallis Simpson.  But Wally's research, including several visits to the Sotheby's auction of the Windsor Estate, reveals that the couple's life together was not as perfect as she thought. Weaving back and forth in time, W.E. intertwines Wally's journey of discovery in New York with the story of Wallis (Andrea Riseborough) and Edward (James D'Arcy), from the glamorous early days of their romance to the slow unraveling of their lives in the decades that followed.
