Greta Gerwig is bringing to life the latest adaptation of Louisa May Alcott’s famous work, with a cast hot enough to burn those pages.

The eighth version of the 1868 novel is set to star Meryl Streep, Saoirse Ronan, Timothée Chalamet, Laura Dern, Emma Watson, and Chris Cooper, among others.

The film will be set in the original time period which Alcott intended — the 1860s — and focus on the lives of the March sisters while jumping between timelines.

“This feels like autobiography,” Gerwig told Vanity Fair of her second directorial project. “When you live through a book, it almost becomes the landscape of your inner life…. It becomes part of you, in a profound way.”

The first official photos from the feature have now been released, showing Ronan, Watson, Chalamet, Streep, and Dern on set.

Little Women is due to be released on December 25th.

The Harry Potter alum and Disney’s live-action Beauty and the Beast star has been tapped to star in the Greta Gerwig helmed adaptation of Little Women which follows the March sisters in Civil War-era America.

According to Variety, Watson will be replacing Emma Stone in a yet unknown part. Watson has been tapped to play the part originally intended for Stone, who is unable to join due to previous obligations for the production of the film The Favourite.

Watson will be joining Meryl Streep, Timothee Chalamet, Saoirse Ronan, and Laura Dern.

Gerwig, who was nominated for five Oscars earlier this year for Lady Bird, will direct and write the film.
