Uma Thurman Cast in Iranian Adaptation of Dante's Inferno; With or Without Hijab?

Sept 10, 2018
Culture , Entertainment

Independent Aggregator of Iran-related News/Events, Kodoom.com: Iranian news sources claim Hollywood star Uma Thurman is cast, in a video role, as part of a Persian play adaptation of Dante's Inferno (Divine Comedy), written and directed by Ebrahim Posht Koohi.

The director claims Thurman's role will be photographic (video) but it is unknown whether Thurman will appear with or without Hijab (head cover) mandated by Iranian laws. Live cast will include Amin Miri and Majid Keshavarz. The play is scheduled to open later in September in Iranshahr Theater in Tehran. The play has been performed in Baku, Azarbaijan before.

An alleged rape victim of Harvey Weinstein, Thurman has admitted that Creative Artists Agency, her former agency, was connected to Weinstein’s predatory behavior: “I stand as both a person who was subjected to it and a person who was then also part of the cloud cover, so that’s a super weird split to have." Last thanksgiving, Thurman wished everyone a happy holiday “Except you Harvey, and all your wicked conspirators — I’m glad it’s going slowly — you don’t deserve a bullet!"
