With production now underway, the cast members joining Emma Roberts for "Adult World" have been rounded up and it's not a bad bunch at all, mixing up a solid veteran with a bunch of rising talent.
John Cusack will hang out with "American Horror Story" star Evan Peters and "Raising Hope" actress Shannon Woodward in the upcoming film. Directed by Scott Coffey ("Ellie Parker"), who also oversaw the rewrite of the script by Andrew Cochran, the indie flick will find Roberts will playing Amy Anderson, a Stanford grad with dreams of becoming a poet who gets stuck working in an erotic bookstore to help pay off her mounting debt. Cusack will play Amy's hero and mentor, the delightfully named poet Rat Billings, with Woodward as her punk/goth roommate Candace and Peters as Manny.
Cameras are rolling on this one already in upstate New York and this smells like a Sundance pic all the way. [Deadline/Deadline]
Looks like there is a lot of talent associated with the project, but the real genius is the DIT. With Ryland on the job, it will succeed.
This sounds great.Wish John Cusack made more movies,also love his comments on twitter.
I love Ellie Parker. This is exciting.
