LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – After starring opposite giant robots in the action movie “Terminator: Salvation,” Bryce Dallas Howard plays a debutante in 1920s Memphis in the film drama “The Loss of a Teardrop Diamond.”
Based on an original Tennessee Williams screenplay, the independent film opens on Friday in major U.S. cities before expanding across the United States January 8.
Howard, daughter of producer/director Ron Howard, sat down to talk to Reuters about her busy year that included not just acting in movies, but also launching a screenwriting and producing career.
Q: How does it feel to originate a Tennessee Williams character?
