After Emma Stone (The Amazing Spider-Man) departed Guillermo del Toro's haunted house story Crimson Peak last month, Mia Wasikowska (Stoker) is now in talks to replace her. Stone cited scheduling issues for her departure from the film, which also stars Jessica Chastain, Benedict Cumberbatch and Charlie Hunnam. If Wasikowska's own schedule works out, she would play "a young author named Edith Cushing who discovers that her charming new husband is not who he appears to be," according to The Wrap. Hunnam will play another lead while Cumberbatch and Chastain star as aristocratic siblings. Crimson Peak is expected to begin production early next year.
