This isn’t your typical fairy tale adapted to the big screen, but Emily Browning has been tapped for the lead in Sleeping Beauty.
Now hold your horses and get anything pure and innocent about that story out of your head so you are not as jarred as I was reading this news.
Now don’t go that far in the other direction you midget gangbang fetish freaks… back it up to something far less sensationalist but still gritty and shocking.

Sucker Punch’s Emily Browning’s star is on the rise and it looks like she’s not afraid to shed her child star image. She’s just signed on for Sleeping Beauty, an erotic thriller about “a student who drifts into prostitution and finds her niche as a woman who sleeps, drugged while men do to her what she can‘t remember the next morning.”
I hope that this does yank Browning out of the kiddy roles, but at the same time I pray this isn’t her Showgirls.
Elizabeth Berkley wanted to be taken seriously as an adult actor and now the best she gets is acne infomercials. Fortunately for Browning, I see far more potential as an actress, but I might skip this as not to have her heavenly beauty and full lips be spoiled by such graphic imagery.
Miss Brown, Couldn’t you just get cast in an Apatow film? I swear I would take you serious as an adult then.
