Cate Blanchett Is All Alone In New Poster For Woody Allen's Blue Jasmine

Woody Allen has been in the headlines quite a bit lately, but it's all been about his project for next year. While very little is known about the film other than the fact that it will be shot and set in the South of France, in the last couple weeks we've learned that both Emma Stone and Colin Firth are attached to star. But let's not forget that we still haven't seen the multi-Oscar-winning filmmaker's latest title: Blue Jasmine. Today the conversation turns in its favor.

Moviefone has released the brand new poster that you see above, which doesn't really have much going on. Similar to the first one-sheet for Midnight In Paris, there's a mix of both photography and paint used in the image, only this one has far more negative space. It's also somewhat hard to gauge the expression on star Cate Blanchett's face, which could honestly be read as either slightly worried or pleasantly surprised.

Very little is known about the plot of Blue Jasmine at this time, though it's been said that the film chronicles the mental crisis of a New York housewife. Making up for the lack of plot details, however, is the fact that the film has a noteworthy, incredible ensemble that includes stars like Alec Baldwin, Louis C.K., Sally Hawkins, Peter Sarsgaard, Michael Stuhlbarg, Bobby Cannavale, and Andrew Dice Clay. Sony Pictures Classics will have the movie in theaters on July 26. Hopefully the release of this poster means that we are close to seeing the first trailer too.
