However, it was his marriage to Effie Gray that became social news. After six years of marriage, Effie requested to terminate their marriage, citing that they had \"never truly become husband and wife\". This lawsuit became a topic of discussion. John Ruskin admitted that the two had never slept together, but defended himself by saying that his wife's \"certain condition\" had ruined his passion. After Effie Gray's divorce, she married painter John Everett Millais, who was highly valued and promoted by John Ruskin. According to Emma Thompson, this new film will start from their wedding night and unravel this mystery through John Ruskin's experiences and personality. On August 17, 2011, Dakota replaced Saoirse as the female lead in Effie  Dakota Fanning replacing Saoirse Ronan in Emma Thompson's 'Effie' August 16 Source: Deadline Just last November, one Casting Tidbits update revealed The Lovely Bones star Saoirse Ronan landed the title role in Effie, a biopic about Effie Gray, the wife of English art critic John Ruskin, who became entangled in a famous Victorian love triangle. Now Deadline reports Dakota Fanning will star in the period drama from writer\/actres****a Thompson which chronicles the strange romance, or lack thereof, between Gray and Ruskin. Despite her beauty, Ruskin was said to be disgusted with Gray's body, did not consummate the marriage and annulled it, allowing her to marry Ruskin's prot égé  John Everett Millais.Though Orlando Bloom was once attached to play Millais, apparently Tom Sturridge (Pirate Radio) has stepped into the role. In addition, Thompson will also star in the film as Lady Eastlake, who takes Effie under her wing when it becomes clear the union was destroying the young woman. Her husbandGreg Wise (Johnny English) will play Ruskin while Julie Walters (Harry Potter franchise) and Derek Jacobi (The King's Speech) will play his parents. Finally, Edward Fox (Gandhi) is in talks to play Eastlake's husband Sir Charles a man who was not only fed up with Ruskin and his radical ideas,  but also the main patron of the Royal Academy which held sway over what constituted fine art. Richard Laxton (An Englishman in New York) is directing the film which begins shooting in Scotland on October 17th with shooting to follow in London and Venice as well. The cast has been shuffled on this project for awhile with Carey Mulligan once attached to the title role as well, but a copyright infringement claim held up the film, which resulted in scheduling conflicts for the previously attached cast members. Producer Don Rosenfeld says,  \"It’****a Thompson’s first original script after doing several fine adaptations, and it gets to the heart of Victorian England.\" Though this sounds a bit more along the lines of her work on Sense and Sensibility as opposed to Nanny McPhee, her work on the page should make for a great British drama down the road.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"specs-box\" style=\"padding-left: 5px;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 1.1em; color: #000; margin-bottom: 10px; text-transform: uppercase;\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; font-size: 0.95em;\"\u003e\n      \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 4px 0; width: 100px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDirector:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRichard Laxton \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n      \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 4px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCast:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDa Ke Ta· Fan Ning, Tom Sturridge, Emma Thompson, Robbie Courtney\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n      \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 4px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAudio:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBritish DTS-HD MSTR 5.1 \/ British LPCM 2.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n      \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 4px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSubtitles:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSimplified \/ Chinese Traditional\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003c\/table\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- IBD_OFFLINE_SYNC_V1 --\u003e","brand":"Bluray-Dvd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51216290316566,"sku":"M3950","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0986\/5530\/6006\/files\/M3950.jpg?v=1776431047","url":"https:\/\/www.bluray-dvd.com\/de\/products\/effie-gray-2014-movie-1-disc-box-set-for-gift-collection-blu-ray","provider":"BluRay-Dvd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
