Who is playing Celia St James in the movie?
One casting announcement that readers are eagerly awaiting is for Celia St. James, who first meets Evelyn on the set of their movie. Fans have hoped that anyone from Sadie Sink to Jessica Chastain to Saoirse Ronan will join the film, but we have disappointing news to share.
Jessica Chastain told E! News she appreciates "how excited the fans are," after sharing it'll be impossible for her to star as Celia St. James. It's not the kind of news we want to hear, but hopefully there's a chance we'll see more than one A-List actress play her!
What is Evelyn Hugo's real name?
Evelyn was born in 1938, and her real name is Evelyn Elena Herrera. In the story, she grows up in New York City's Hell's Kitchen.
