Wong Kar Wai to Make English-Language Debut with Solid Ensemble
Seems like a lot of high-end actors are lining up to star in Wong Kar Wai's "My Blueberry Nights," a romantic drama that's attracted names like Kevin Spacey, Ed Harris, Jude Law, Natalie Portman, Rachel Weisz, and Norah Jones.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, "The list of stars in Wong Kar Wai's English-language debut "My Blueberry Nights" continues to grow, with Ed Harris in final negotiations for a role and Kevin Spacey also circling. "Ed Harris will be in the film. We are talking to Kevin Spacey," Wong said late Wednesday at a party hosted by French distributor StudioCanal, which is selling the film internationally. Norah Jones toplines as a young woman journeying across the U.S. in an attempt to resolve her questions about the meaning of love. Along the way she encounters some quirky characters."
Wong Kar Wai's previous films include "Happy Together," "In the Mood for Love," and "2046."
