Jude Law: 'Anna Karenina' is Extraordinary'!

Jude Law suits up as he continues to film his upcoming movie Dom Hemingway on Wednesday (November 14) in London, England.

The 39-year-old actor recently talked to Moviefone at the Toronto Film Festival about his new film Anna Karenina and director Joe Wright‘s take on the novel.

“The book is extraordinary, a masterpiece really,” Jude expressed. “When I think about [Leo Tolstoy] writing this, I wonder if he knew, all these years later, how many versions would be made, and if he realized it would be inspiring such passionate translations. Adapting something is always a process by which it’s being reconfigured and filtered anyway, but I was so inspired by Joe‘s choice to take it into this new realm, to push the language of film a little bit. He hopped back to another style of cinema that we’ve seen handled by the greats, but he’s also adding a modern voice of his own.”
