Just a few weeks after his latest film Irrational Man hit theaters, Woody Allen has just unveiled the full cast of his next project.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Woody Allen's newest movie will star Jeannie Berlin, Jesse Eisenberg, Blake Lively, Parker Posey, Kristen Stewart, Corey Stoll, Ken Stott and Bruce Willis. Also joining in supporting roles are Anna Camp, Stephen Kunken, Sari Lennick and Paul Schneider.
We already knew about a few of these names including Eisenberg and Willis, as we've previously reported, but this is the first time the entire cast has been revealed. Alongside the names we already knew, we now have Jeannie Berlin, Corey Stoll, Ken Stott and all of the supporting actors as well.
The untitled new movie begins production this month in New York and Los Angeles. This will be Allen's return to New York after setting his last few movies in Rhode Island, France, the U.K. and Paris.
Speaking of returns, Jesse Eisenberg will be teaming up with Allen once again after starring in 2012's To Rome With Love. The majority of the rest of the cast consists of Allen newcomers.
Will this be one of the truly great Woody Allen movies? We'll find out soon enough, although the director recently said that he's "too lazy" to make great films, according to The Independent.
“Steven Spielberg and Martin Scorsese will work on the details until midnight and sweat it out, whereas for me, come six o’clock, I want to go home," he said. "I want to have dinner. Film-making is not [the] end-all be-all of my existence."
