Vili Fualaau, the supposed inspiration for Charles Melton’s character in Todd Haynes’s Oscar-hopeful May December, has taken offense at the director’s latest project.
The Carol director’s newest black comedy stars Julianna Moore as Gracie, a former convict jailed for having sexual relations with her young son’s school-aged friend, Joe – played as an adult by Melton. It also stars Natalie Portman as washed-up actor Elizabeth who’s set to portray Gracie in a forthcoming film.
