Michelle Williams Joins DiCaprio on Shutter Island

We’ve been keeping you up to date with the castings for Martin Scorsese’s Shutter Island, but so far we’ve only had a male cast. Well, it’s finally time to bring a female into the mix, and that female is Michelle Williams.

Williams, who found fame when she starred in Dawson’s Creek, will play the wife of Teddy Daniels, a US Marshall which will be played by Leonardo DiCaprio.

The film follows the story of Teddy and his partner who travel to Shutter Island to investigate the escape of Rachel Solando, a murderess, from the mental institution on the Island.

They then find themselves trapped on the island thanks to a pesky hurricane. Teddy, already racked with guilt about the recent death of his wife, begins to fall apart when the man who killed his wife is in the very mental institution that he’s investigating.

So, if Teddy’s wife is dead it could be possible that William’s character will appear in the movie in flashback sequences. Regardless of where she’ll appear in the movie, the cast is excellent so far: DiCaprio, Mark Ruffalo (love him!), Michelle Williams and Sir Ben Kingsley!
