Described in official press materials as \u201ca love letter to one of cinema\u2019s most enduring icons,\u201d <em>Flesh Impact <\/em>casts Johnson as Monroe at the height of her fame while Burstyn stars as an imagined version of Monroe later in life. (Monroe was 36 when she died on Aug. 4, 1962.) Peter Sarsgaard and <em>The Pitt<\/em> star Sepideh Moafi round out the cast.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe film is produced by William Green for <em>The Cut<\/em>, Michelle Ross for Superprime, Nicolette Spencer and Melissa Moore for INNOCEAN, and is presented by automotive brand Genesis. Maddi Carlton, Brandon Boerner, Rebecca Skinner, David Webb and Courtney Kivowitz serve as executive producers.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\u201cI\u2019ve always been fascinated by Marilyn Monroe. So, when Genesis first came to me with the idea of a celebratory project for her centennial, I knew I wanted to work together on bringing this story to life,\u201d Gyllenhaal said in a statement. \u201cWith <em>Flesh Impact<\/em>, we showcase the timeless icon we know and love through a modern lens that reclaims her story.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/uspropertymoves.com\/?p=4402\">Eva Mendes Reacts to Husband Ryan Gosling\u2019s \u2018Ghost Rider\u2019 Casting<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n\tGyllenhaal\u2019s creative team also included production designer Karen Murphy (<em>Elvis<\/em>), casting director Mary Vernieu (<em>The Last of Us<\/em>), costume designer Jennifer Johnson (<em>Bugonia<\/em>), editor Affonso Gon\u00e7alves (<em>Hamnet<\/em>) and director of photography Lawrence Sher (<em>The Bride<\/em>).<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\u201cAt Genesis, we believe the arts have a unique ability to inspire reflection, spark meaningful conversation, and connect people through stories that endure across generations,\u201d said Amy Marentic, chief marketing officer at Genesis Motor America. \u201cOur support of this film honoring Marilyn Monroe reflects our commitment to celebrating cultural icons whose influence extends far beyond their time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe full Venice Film Festival lineup can be found here.
