Holofcener's Latest Project
August 19th 2009 02:55
Nicole Holofcener is directing an adaptation of a novel, “I am With Cancer” by Will Reiser. To date, Holofcener has directed from her own work, so this is quite a change for her creative standards. Reiser wrote the script for the yet-to-be-titled film; Holofcener will start filming in January.
James McAvoy has joined Holofcener’s project to star with Seth Rogen, who is also producing.
The comedy is about a 25-year-old (McAvoy) who learns he has cancer and successfully battles the disease over several years. The character is based on the real experiences of screenwriter Will Reiser, who won his own fight with cancer in his mid-20s. The trades haven’t said who Rogen is playing in the film.
