About The Wife 💬

The Castleman marriage and literary legend will never be the same.

After nearly forty years of marriage, JOAN and JOE CASTLEMAN (Glenn Close and Jonathan Pryce) are complements. The foundations of their marriage have, however, been built upon a set of uneven compromises, and Joan has reached a turning point.

It's 1992, and Great American Novelist Joe is about to be awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature his acclaimed and prolific body of work. Joe's literary star has blazed since he and Joan first met in the late 1950s, when she was a demure Smith student and him, her (married) creative writing teacher. THE WIFE interweaves the midcentury story of the couple's youthful passion and ambition with a portrait of a marriage, thirty-plus years later - a lifetime's shared compromises, secrets, betrayals, and genuine, mutual love. From 1958 to 1992 to our present vantage point of 2018, we observe Joan and Joe Castleman in the context of their times, and ours.
