Today is March 14. Here's what's trending in entertainment. Kate Marr and her sister Rooney Mar are
making movie history by starring together for the first time. In the upcoming film, Bucking Fastered,
directed by Werner Herzog, the sisters play twin siblings, Jean and Joan Holbrook. The two are
so in sync. They speak in unison, share the same dreams, and even love the same man. The story
takes a wild turn as the twins dig a tunnel through an entire mountain range. They're chasing
an imaginary paradise in the Orkneys where true love exists. Parts of the film are set in Ireland,
with Orlando Bloom and Domna Gleason, also in the cast. Kate recently opened up about the shoot at the
Los Angeles premiere of her film, Imperfect Women on March 10th. The 43-year-old actress called it
very special and said the script was unlike anything they've read. She praised Herzog as a dream
director for both her and 40-year-old Rooney. Working together brought the sisters even closer,
and Kate admitted they did not want it to end.
She's long felt grateful they can share their acting dreams without rivalry.
Back when Rooney started acting around Kate's 20th birthday, they even lived together for a year or two.
A first-look photo shows the twins in flowing white dresses with veils and flower headbands.
Kate noted their agents never tell them if they're up for the same roles,
keeping things smooth between them.
