It's funny, Mia's dressed half Victorian and half modern day (on-my way-to-Target). Her hair is pulled up and plastered back, but it looks like Edith Cushing is going to be blond - at least in this part of the film. I'm looking forward to seeing a still where she's in costume and in character. Nice to see a bit of a glimpse, though, caught in mid step. Looking forward to seeing Tom Hiddelston along side of Mia.

She looks awesome! When is this film set? Does anyone know? -

I wasn't expecting any set pictures, so this is a nice surprise. Her hair sort of reminds me of Jennifer Lawrence's in American Hustle.
I hope we get a still or BTS shot of her in full costume. Just a little taste to hold us over for a while. Plus I'm curios about the look they're going for now. -

These are shots of them shooting that some guy took out of his apartment window - you see both Mia and Del Toro, plus extras in period garb.

Yes, I think that was in one of the candid shots, sitting down on set - it did look like glasses. Well, she is playing an author, and they did have glasses back then - I think they were period types, so maybe she'll wear them on occasion in the film - if so, that will be the first time I recall her wearing any on or off screen. I can't believe that the guy who took those candid shots, left and went to work and missed all the filming. Mia looks so elegant and beautiful in that costume, walking through the mud.

The colors of her dress are stunning. Here's another gallery of set pictures

. You can see the glasses clearly in the second to last shot.
This person took really great pictures. The close up of Mia and the extra raising his top hat are standouts. -

Mia! Running!
That first pic of GDT, he looks like some kind of urban Santa Claus. I love it. Thanks for sharing. (Ironically, today shots of Rooney on the set of "Carol" in Ohio popped up.)

Yeah, thanks for those pics - this batch are very clear, some you could almost frame - but I'll wait for the stills. I'm really excited about "Crimson Peak" and actually seeing a Del Toro film with Mia on IMAX. That combination may be overwhelming.

I've read that "Crimson Peak" is a beautiful love story (a Gothic romance) and a ghost/horror story combined. There probably is lots of mystery thrown in there, too, with Mia's character trying to discover secrets. Del Toro has said there's elements of "Rebecca" and "The Innocents" among other influences - in both of those the mansion plays an important part, too. Also Del Toro says he's hoping it will be his "most beautiful film". That's saying a lot from the guy who made "Pan's Labryinth". Another pic of Mia on set as Edith Cushing.

Spoiler alert: the movie centers around a young author who's hiding a mysterioussecond pair of hands, as portrayed by Mia Wasikowska.

That belt Mia's wearing is wild - Tom Hiddelston looks quite gothic. There is a new DGA Quaterly magazine with a long interview with Del Toro. He says that "Crimson Peak" will probably be in 3D. Also, have seeing these set shots I think we can guess who he's talking about in the following.
"Were doing Crimson Peak right now. The way we color code the new world, America, and the old world, Europe, is very conscious. There is one character that represents opulence, sunlight, and wealth, and we are dressing that character in ivories and gold, so its literally a drop of sunlight in the middle of a world that is blue and cyan. That drop of sunlight is going to travel to a world that is cold and distant. And thats storytelling."

^Nice.
Here's some HD-quality pics from The Daily Mail. As much as this ragsheet is junk, they do post good pictures and these are definitely no exception. My favorite is the last one of Mia and a crewmember.

This is from actor Jim Beaver's facebook that he posted on April 21 - he plays Edith Cushing's father in C.P. It avoids spoilers but sounds quite tantalizing.
"The scene I was called for didn't call for me to speak, and, unless the camera were turned to a certain angle, I wouldn't even be seen. We were shooting in a huge carriage house that had been transformed by the art department into something far more disturbing. Charlie Hunnam joined Mia, Tom, and me, as well as a grand fellow named Bruce Gray, who plays my attorney Ferguson. I watched as they rehearsed the main part of the scene that didn't require my presence. I can't say much about the scene as almost anything would spoil it for future viewing. But it's both a physically disturbing and an emotionally disturbing one, and Mia bore the greatest burden of emotion in it. I know she was sorting through her options for some time before this day, as she'd inquired of me and others as to our opinions about what a genuine response to a situation such as16d0 was presented in the scene would look like. As it turns out, I won't know what her decision amounted to until I see the film, as I was sent back to my trailer to wait until they actually needed me for a shot. Which they never did." -

Would just like to add that I met him last night! I actually went to tour Casa Loma (which if you havent been, is a MUST see). The film crew/cast were all there and there was quite a lot of extras strolling the halls. It was an amazing atmosphere to be in, although the film completely took over the first floor, which has some of the most gorgeous rooms.
I knew the filming was taking place and sat around for a few hours just to experience what its like on set (Im currently majoring in film, so it was a great experience). Long story short, my friend and I stayed out a bit in hopes to get pictures with the cast. Everyone came out to do autographs and pictures except Mia.
Jessica was really nice to everyone, as was Charlie. I got the feeling that a lot of people didnt actually know who he was, just got a picture to say they did. Jim Beaver was the nicest man on the entire planet.. I was excited to see him because I LOVED him on Supernatural. Tom was also really kind and gracious.. of course 99.9% of the crowd (all girls I might add) were there for him.
