Anne Hathaway, Amanda Seyfried and the main cast of Tom Hooper’s movie-musical Les Miserables recently posed for a gorgeous, if haunting, photo shoot by Annie Leibovitz, which will be featured in the upcoming December issue of Vogue.
Hathaway, who also graces the cover of the issue, looks especially frail in the photo shoot — and for good reason. The actress reportedly lost 25 pounds to play the role of Fantine, a desperate mother who turns to prostitution to make money for her daughter, Cosette.
“I had to be obsessive about it,” Hathaway, 30, told the magazine. “The idea was to look near death. Looking back on the whole experience – and I don’t judge it in any way – it was definitely a little nuts. It was definitely a break with reality, but I think that’s who Fantine is anyway.”
The film is directed by Tom Hooper, scripted by William Nicholson, and stars an ensemble cast led by Hugh Jackman and Russell Crowe. Anne Hathaway, Amanda Seyfried, Eddie Redmayne, Samantha Barks, Sacha Baron Cohen, Helena Bonham Carter and Aaron Tveit also star in supporting roles. The film tells the story of Jean Valjean, a former prisoner who becomes mayor of a town in France. Valjean agrees to take care of Cosette, the illegitimate daughter of Fantine, and must avoid being captured again by Javert, a police inspector.
