carey-mulligan Carey Mulligan will play Gordon Gekko’s estranged daughter in Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps. Her character will be romantically tied to an up-and-coming Wall Street trader that will be played by Shia LaBeouf.

You may be asking “who is Carey Mulligan?” and that is a very good question. She’s a 24-year old British actress who has appeared in both Pride & Prejudice and Public Enemies. In trying to find a picture of her, I found her to be all over the place – she had long hair in some pictures and short hair in others; she had brown hair, dirty blond hair and bleached blond hair; she smiled in some pictures and looked angry in others; she looked young and cute in some and old and tired in others. It was all very confusing. If anyone has ever seen the Seinfeld episode where Jerry dates the girl who only looked good in a certain light – I get the impression that Carey Mulligan could be that girl in real life.

In any case, the movie is going to start filming very soon for its 2010 release. It will also star Michael Douglas, Frank Langella and possibly Josh Brolin. Oliver Stone will direct.
