"Two intersecting love triangles"...how many people?


1 love triangle= 3 people

2 (separate) love triangles= 6 people

2 intersecting love triangles= 4 people? 5? Maybe 5. It's not a love quadrangle. 5 might mean that there is one person at the corner of both triangles. I don't know.

I think it will be the "big six" (Gosling, Mara, Fassbender, Portman, Blanchett and Bale). We know from leaked photos that pairs in the movie are: Gosling - Mara and Fassbender - Portman; but also Mara - Fassbender and Gosling - Blanchett. So, the real question is - who is in the center of this story ? My pick is Rooney but, of course, it's very possible that I'm wrong. Well, we will find out by 2019, I hope so 

Yeah...something like this :


--------------------------------------------------PORTMAN
-----------------------------------------------------|
-----------------------------------------------------|
-----------------------------------------------------|
------------------GOSLING ----- MARA ----- FASSBENDER
---------------------|-----------------\
---------------------|------------------\
---------------------|-----------------MARLOHE ?
-----------------BLANCHETT
--- BALE ----- (BENNETT ?)


I heard rumors that Haley Bennett plays younger version of Cate Blanchett's character (Haley is linked with Bale in flashback ?) and that Mara and Marlohe are linked somehow (lesbian relationship ? Marlohe said recently that "her love interest in the movie is kind of surprising as (s)he is not going to be the one people think").


But these two are probably only just that - rumors.



Rooney Fassbender and Joaquin Blanchett

I think the Mara/Marlohe link is right, there's this picture of the two http://i.imgur.com/wgCSN3G.jpg

Guys I really hope that these are not plot twists that you're revealing here, lol. 

Haley Bennett said "I play a young mother, a recovering drug addict. She's part of a love triangle" in Elle Magazine (December 2016).
And Fassbender describes his character as "Lucifer-like" in The Times in a recent article (title: "I’m the Monica Seles of the gym")

Thank you. If that's true, someone from the "Big 6" is out or has just cameo - not part of love triangles (probably Bale...but who knows).

Can you provide links to both articles (if they are available) ? It would be much appreciated !




Fassbender - Mara - Blanchett - Phoenix

Ok, I found:

http://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/michael-fassbender-i-am-the-monica-seles-of-the-gym-vf6nclm3j

He is playing an alcoholic detective in The Snowman, an adaptation of Jo Nesbo’s thriller, and a Lucifer-like character in Terrence Malick’s Weightless, a drama set against the music scene in Austin, Texas, in which he has scenes with Iggy Pop and John Lydon, with whom he got on “like a house on fire”.


Iggy Pop and Johnny Rotten are also in Weightless ?
