Blake Lively Lands 'Age of Adaline' Role Opposite Ellen Burstyn

Blake Lively and Ellen Burstyn are set to star alongside each other in the upcoming romantic drama The Age of Adaline, according to Deadline.

The film “follows the miraculous life of the 29-year old title character (Lively), who stops aging after recovering from a near-fatal accident. Over the 20th century she embarks on an epic, but isolated worldwide journey, keeping her secret, until she meets a man who forever alters her life.”

“They’re extraordinarily talented and perfect for telling the beautiful and timeless tale of The Age Of Adaline,” the producers said in a statement about the film’s stars. “[Director] Lee Toland Krieger is one of the most stylish young filmmakers working in Hollywood today. He is visually imaginative and possesses a strong narrative sense.”
