The stage musical incorporating songs by Duluth-born Bob Dylan is set to become a movie written and directed by playwright Conor McPherson.
Film industry media including Deadline Hollywood broke the story Monday that Blueprint Pictures, the studio behind “The Banshees of Inisherin,” is backing a screen adaptation of the stage musical, which premiered in London in 2017. “Girl from the North Country” subsequently moved to Broadway, with a national tour set to launch this fall at the Orpheum Theatre in Minneapolis.
“Girl from the North Country” is an ensemble piece set in a fictional Duluth guesthouse during the Great Depression. Deadline Hollywood confirmed the attachment of Harrelson, Oscar winner Colman, and Bailey to star in the film. Bailey rose to widespread fame as half of the musical duo Chloe x Halle; she has also done extensive screen work in movies and television.
No further details on the film’s production were immediately available, but Duluth’s growing film production industry will surely be alert for any sign that the city where the film is set might actually appear onscreen. The city looks very different than it did during the Depression, but the Aerial Lift Bridge, at least, could make a cameo without being too anachronistic. Its center span has been in place since 1930.
In 2020, Dylan said of the play: “I’ve seen it and it affected me. I saw it as an anonymous spectator, not as someone who had anything to do with it. I just let it happen.”
