‘Cherry’ First Look: Tom Holland O’Sullivan Tender


“Cherry” reunites Holland with his “Avengers” director and Anthony Russo for his “endgame” follow-up.

Tom Holland made a buccaneer buzz during the 2012-2013 awards season for his supporting role in “The Impossible” and is now back on the radar of scissor pundits with his upcoming play “Cherry”. Based on Nico Wacker’s 2018 novel, the film connects Holland with the director of his Marvel Cinematic Universe, J. and Anthony Russo, who are diving into a hard-hitting character study after the record-breaking success of “Avengers: Endgame.” Vanity Fair has an official look at “Cherry”, including the new locations of CFH Land and its co-star Kiara Bravo.

“We think of it as an epic film, and it’s a very personal life,” Anthony Russo told the magazine. “But there’s a bit of a divisive personality in this character between being a study and having an epic life cycle.”

“Cherry” Holland to U.S. The Army presents Tara as a drug addict who returns home to the suburbs of Ohio and develops an ankylosing spondylitis while struggling with PTSD. Bravo plays Hol Holland’s character’s wife, who also becomes addicted. The young couple start robbing banks to fund their drug habit. Supporting cast includes Bill Scarsgard, Jack Renor and Forrest Goodluck.

“Divided into six chapters of the movie, they reflect different periods, and each has a different tone,” Russo told Vanity Fair. “It has been shot with different lenses, different production designs. A magical reality has been found. The second chapter is absurd. The other one is horrible. … It has a little gonzo in it. It is raw in its tone. He is a character in the crisis of existence. “

“Cherry” taps on the personal side of the Russo brothers, who told Vanity Fair they have seen the opioid crisis close and personal to Americans. The brothers said, “There are a lot of people in our family who have gone through a crisis or died, or are struggling with their current addiction.”

“This is a movie that is supposed to define the experience of being a PTSD, the experience of being an opioid addict,” added Russo. “And the goal of the film is to create empathy, not to create disgust, not to blame. It is important that you empathize with his struggles and his journey as many people are going through this, and they are having a very humane experience. I think the sympathy in the world right now is in an incredibly short supply. And that’s a tragedy. ”

For Holland, “Cherry” provides an opportunity to temporarily leave Marvel behind and tap into the depths of its dramatic acting. Anthony Russo said he “was amazed at how fully committed he was [Holland] It was for every aspect of the character, “and added,” the darkest, most difficult sides of that character, she really embraced him and ran to him and tried to give him a life of her own that so many people couldn’t pull it off. Off. “

March Paul will open “Cherry” in theaters on February 26 before streaming on Apple Paul TV from March 26, check out a photo of the first scene from the play below, and visit Vanity Fair’s website for more exclusive images.
