Abbie Cornish books two new roles

By Adnan Tezer Mar 18, 2010, 20:37 GMT

Abbie Cornish has signed on for the female lead in Relativity's "Dark Fields," opposite Bradley Cooper and Robert De Niro.

The film follows a down-and-out New York writer (Cooper) who comes into possession of a pill that gives him the ability to access the full capacity of his brain. Success follows but he quickly realizes that it comes at a steep price as dark forces begin to pursue him.

Neil Burger is directing the film.

According to Variety, Cornish has also booked a starring role in the film "W.E.," which Madonna will be directing.

The film will focus on the affair between King Edward VIII and American divorcee Wallis Simpson. This culminated with King Edward VIII giving up the throne in December 1936 so he could marry the twice-divorced American with two living ex-husbands.

Cornish recently garnered critical acclaim for her role in the 2009 film "Bright Star."
