Emily Ratajkowski cast in Gone Girl. The casting of Emily Ratajkowski in Gone Girl (2015) answers the question of who will play a key supporting role in the David Fincher directed film. Emily Ratajkowski will play the role  of Andie, “a young college student with whom Nick Dunne (Affleck) has an affair…with before she bands together with Amy (Rosamund Pike)’s parents to incriminate him in [Amy’s] disappearance.”

On the people behind the scenes of Gone Girl:

20th Century Fox and New Regency are behind the feature adaptation of Gillian Flynn’s bestselling mystery novel.

Reese Witherspoon and Bruna Papandrea are producing “Gone Girl” through their Pacific Standard banner along with Leslie Dixon.

The plot of the book Gone Girl is based on:

Marriage can be a real killer.
One of the most critically acclaimed suspense writers of our time, New York Times bestseller Gillian Flynn takes that statement to its darkest place in this unputdownable masterpiece about a marriage gone terribly, terribly wrong. The Chicago Tribune proclaimed that her work “draws you in and keeps you reading with the force of a pure but nasty addiction.” Gone Girl’s toxic mix of sharp-edged wit and deliciously chilling prose creates a nerve-fraying thriller that confounds you at every turn.
On a warm summer morning in North Carthage, Missouri, it is Nick and Amy Dunne’s fifth wedding anniversary. Presents are being wrapped and reservations are being made when Nick’s clever and beautiful wife disappears from their rented McMansion on the Mississippi River. Husband-of-the-Year Nick isn’t doing himself any favors with cringe-worthy daydreams about the slope and shape of his wife’s head, but passages from Amy’s diary reveal the alpha-girl perfectionist could have put anyone dangerously on edge. Under mounting pressure from the police and the media—as well as Amy’s fiercely doting parents—the town golden boy parades an endless series of lies, deceits, and inappropriate behavior. Nick is oddly evasive, and he’s definitely bitter—but is he really a killer?
As the cops close in, every couple in town is soon wondering how well they know the one that they love. With his twin sister, Margo, at his side, Nick stands by his innocence. Trouble is, if Nick didn’t do it, where is that beautiful wife? And what was in that silvery gift box hidden in the back of her bedroom closet?
With her razor-sharp writing and trademark psychological insight, Gillian Flynn delivers a fast-paced, devilishly dark, and ingeniously plotted thriller that confirms her status as one of the hottest writers around.

On Emily Ratajkowski:

Emily Ratajkowski was born in London, England to a Polish father and a British mother, who is an English professor and writer, whom Emily describes as a “feminist and intellectual”. She was raised in Encinitas, California. She lived in and travelled to many parts of Europe at a young age and spent much of her childhood in Bantry, Ireland, and Majorca, Spain. Her parents are both artists; her father a painter of Polish descent.

Ratajkowski was signed by Ford Models at age 14, she continued to attend high school in San Diego, California while she modeled and acted in Los Angeles. She attended UCLA for one year as a fine arts major, when she decided to pursue her career in modeling full-time.

As an actress, her most notable role was “Tasha” in Nickelodeon’s iCarly from 2009 to 2010.

She began shooting more fashion editorials and appeared nude on the cover of Treats! Magazine, which she credits for bringing her the two high-profile music video gigs, which she did not audition for. She has worked with photographers such as Tony Kelly, with whom she shot the cover of GQ Turkey. She was featured in a Carl’s Jr. commercial,with Sara Jean Underwood, in August 2012.

In 2013 she appeared in two music videos: Robin Thicke, T.I., and Pharrell’s “Blurred Lines” and Maroon 5’s “Love Somebody”. She rose to prominence for her controversial performance in “Blurred Lines”, which featured her dancing topless. YouTube banned the explicit version of the video for violating its Community Guidelines due to its sexually explicit nature but reinstated it in July 2013. The Guardian’s Peter Robinson noted that “[Justin] Timberlake’s “Tunnel Vision” clip was initially banned then reinstated by the service “because it was, apparently, art”.

Gone Girl also stars Kim Dickens, Neil Patrick Harris, Tyler Perry, Patrick Fugit, Carrie Coon, and David Clennon.
