The Oscar-nominated actress stars in several promising projects this year, and here are three that you shouldn’t miss for the world.
The Eyes of Tammy Faye
Chastain entered the Oscar conversation with her project The Eyes of Tammy Faye, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival this fall. This exciting biopic chronicles the rise and fall of controversial televangelist Tammy Faye Bakker.
The Forgiven
10 years after starring together in Coriolanus, Jessica Chastain and Ralph Fiennes are set to reunite in The Forgiven. The John Michael McDonagh-directed film takes place over a weekend in the High Atlas Mountains of Morocco and explores the impact that a random accident left on the locals and western visitors attending a house party in a grand villa.
Scenes from a Marriage
We’re used to seeing Chastain on the big screen, but she was amazing in her first major TV role in Scenes from a Marriage. Based on Ingmar Bergman’s Swedish mini-series, this project saw Chastain joining forces with her A Most Violent Year co-star Oscar Isaac.

The Card Counter
Following the success of First Reformed, Paul Schrader returned to Venice with another intriguing character study. The Card Counter sees Isaac take on the role of an ex-military interrogator turned gambler haunted by the ghosts of his past, and it was met with rave reviews in Venice.
Dune
Denis Villeneuve’s Dune is one of the most talked-about movies to premiere in Venice, and it was met with an eight-minute standing ovation following its opening. Isaac will play one of the key characters in this sci-fi epic—Duke Leto Atreides, who was bestowed with the stewardship of the dangerous desert planet Arrakis, also known as Dune.
Scenes from a Marriage
The remake of Ingmar Bergman’s iconic series of the same name focuses on a contemporary American couple as their marriage slowly crumbles. Isaac and Jessica Chastain previously played a couple in A Most Violent Year, and this series will give them another chance to prove they’re a match made in heaven.
