After the jump, Richard Jenkins becomes Adam Scott’s dad, while Juno Temple and Wes Bentley befriend Amanda Seyfried.
The project marks a reunion for Scott and Jenkins, who previously worked together in 2008’s Step Brothers. A.C.O.D. is scheduled to begin shooting in March. [Deadline]
Juno Temple and Wes Bentley are set to join Amanda Seyfried, Peter Sarsgaard, and Sharon Stone in Lovelace, Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman’s biopic of adult film star Linda Lovelace. Just to be clear, this is a totally separate project from Matthew Wilder’s Inferno, which stars Malin Akerman as the troubled porn actress — Linda Lovelace is the new Snow White, it seems. The Lovelace script, by W. Merritt Johnson and Andy Bellin, is based on The Complete Linda Lovelace by Eric Danville.
Temple is lined up to play the best friend of Linda (Seyfried), while Bentley will play Linda’s second husband Larry Marchiano. As previously reported, Sarsgaard will star as Chuck Traynor, Linda’s abusive first husband and the man who pulled Linda into porn, and Stone as Linda’s mother. Production will begin in Los Angeles at the end of this month. [Variety]
