A Woman Joins The Men At The Pru
Felicity Jones is about to become one of those people you suddenly see everywhere, and have no idea where she came from. She's got a role in two prestige-type movies this year, Cheri and Julie Taymor's Tempest retelling, and she'll try her hand at comedy as well, playing the female lead in Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant's The Men at the Pru.
Her role sounds a lot like the one Christina Applegate played in Anchorman. Working at an insurance agency in the 1970s, she's surrounded by men who think she should be at home raising a family, but she's got career ambitions of her own. THR isn't saying when filming begins, but hopefully the cast will keep rounding out-- the main characters, three men in their 20s, have yet to be cast.
