#INTERVIEW: AMANDA SEYFRIED & ATOM EGOYAN ON “SEVEN VEILS”

After an extended wait, visionary Atom Egoyan‘s acclaimed Drama SEVEN VEILS finally sees a release next month. To celebrate the occasion, a special Red Carpet Advance Screening was held with its stars in attendance, including Primetime Emmy and Golden Globe-winning Actress AMANDA SEYFRIED. The Oscar-nominated screen veteran filmed the Movie in Toronto early 2023 and it premiered at TIFF during the SAG-AFTRA strike later that year, with Critics praising this is some of Seyfried‘s best work yet.

Also in attendance at TIFF Lightbox were:

-Atom Egoyan (Writer & Director)
-Amanda Seyfried (Actress – “Jeanine”)
-Rebecca Liddiard (Actress – “Clea”)
-Vinessa Antoine (Actress – “Rachel”)
-Joey Klein (Actor – “Charlie”)
-Lanette Ware (Actress – “Beatrice”)
-Maia Jae Bastidas (Actress – “Dimitra”)

SEVEN VEILS centers in a Theatre Director who is tasked with helming a production of Salome. She must face ghosts of her past life and some suppressed trauma as she delves deeper and her work comes to life.

We are delighted to have chatted with Seyfried and Egoyan about their reunion after much success with their 2009 film CHLOE. We are curious how their experiences on that Film might have informed this latest collaboration. Seyfried, who looked stunning in a chic Carolina Herrera dress, also tells us about her favourite Canadian libation!
