Antonio Banderas Signs On For Next Woody Allen Film
By David Hall
It doesn’t even have a title yet, but based on the casting so far, Woody Allen‘s next project looks promising.
King of suave Antonio Banderas is confirmed for the cast Allen’s so-far untitled 2010 film. Plot details are still under wraps (damn you Allen and your mysterious tendencies!), so we don’t know what role the Spanish actor will play, but I hope Allen gives him a gun.
So that we’re all up to speed, here’s what we know about the film:
- It’s currently in the “pre-production” phase.
- Filming will begin this summer in London.
- Other cast members include Naomi Watts, Freida Pinto, Josh Brolin and Anthony Hopkins.
It’s not much, but it at least we know it has an all-star cast. Right now, I’m envisioning a crime drama involving an Catholic church gunfight and a cannibalistic psychiatrist… oh wait, I’m just mixing Match Point, Desperado and Silence of the Lambs… woops! Well, without any solid details, can you blame me? Hopefully, once Allen is done with his current project, Whatever Works, he’ll throw us a bone.
Any speculation on what Allen’s mysterious untitled film might be about?
