Richard Dreyfuss & Danny Glover Up For Killing Winston Jones

November 21, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Richard Dreyfuss and Danny Glover don’t get to make enough movies anymore, so it’s good news they’re teaming up for Killing Winston Jones, and according to Variety they’ll be joined by Danny Masterson and Jon Heder.

The indie dark comedy comes from a script by Justin T. Winter, which focuses on a sixth grade English teacher (Masterson) who is on a quest to get a recently built junior high gymnasium named as a memorial to his father… even though his dad’s not dead. Dreyfuss will pay Masterson’s not-so-late father, while Glover will play a rival who has his own plans for the gymnasium’s name. There’s no mention of what role Heder will have.

Who knew naming a gym could be so fraught?

Cameras start rolling Monday in Savannah, Georgia, with Joel David Moore directing. If that name sounds familiar, it’s because he’s best known as an actor, who’s starred in the likes of Avatar and Dodgeball, as well as having a recurring role in TV’s Bones. He previously helmed Spiral.

For Ellen Trailer – Paul Dano & Jon Heder head for an indie drama

August 15, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Paul Dano is more interested in making interesting movies than chasing stardom, and that certainly seem true of the indie For Ellen. In the movie he stars as, ‘Aspiring rock star Joby Taylor, who has wanted nothing more than to “make it”, having flirted with fame but never crossed over into true success. In the midst of a low period in his life, he agrees to sign divorce papers with his estranged wife (Margarita Levieva) in order to see money from the sale of their home, only to discover that by signing the papers, he will forfeit all custody of his six-year-old daughter, Ellen (newcomer Shaylena Mandigo). With a good-natured lawyer (Jon Heder) unable to make headway in reversing the decision, and a girlfriend (Jena Malone) that represents an era of his life that he might be ready to graduate from, Joby negotiates a visit with his daughter to explore whether he is able to walk away from his child, and whether it might be too late for reconciliation.’ It hits US cinemas in early September, but no UK release is yet set.
