Per Variety, Larson is attached to play the lead in the film, which was also written by Bogdanovich. Wilson will play a Broadway director who pays for Larson’s escort services despite being married to the star of the play. Schwarztman is being courted to play a playwright who falls for Larson “despite the fact that he’s dating her therapist (Wilde), whose own alcoholic mother is in rehab.”

Bogdanovich’s Paper Moon is one of my favorite films of all time, so I’m eager to see what he’s been up to since his last theatrically released feature, 2001’s The Cat’s Meow. The addition of Anderson and Baumbach to the team only makes Squirrels to the Nuts even more appealing. Wilson is currently filming Mad Men creator Matt Weiner’s feature directorial debut, You Are Here, alongside Zach Galifianakis. He’s set to reteam with Vince Vaughn this summer to shoot the Shawn Levy-directed comedy The Internship.

“The Words” begins a theatrical release in the U.S. on September 21st, 2012.

In ‘On the Inside,’ Allen Meneric (Stahl) is committed to a psychiatric institution for the criminally insane after carrying out a brutal revenge murder. There, he is forced to deal with the very ill and the dangerous until, as part of a socialization program, he is transferred to minimum security where he meets a beautiful bipolar female inmate named Mia (Olivia Wilde). Ever haunted by his past, Allen seeks his redemption when sudden events demand that he protect Mia from the violence and chaos of the institution.

The Blu-ray will feature 1080p video, a Dolby TrueHD 5.1 soundtrack, and the disc doesn’t appear to have any supplements.

Dreamworks Pictures’ People Like Us will have its World Premiere amongst the Summer Showcase screenings. The film is directed by Alex Kurtzman, written by Kurtzman and Roberto Orci and Jody Lambert, and stars Chris Pine, Elizabeth Banks, Olivia Wilde, Michael Hall D’Addario, Philip Baker Hall, Mark Duplass and Michelle Pfeiffer. In a story inspired by true events, Sam (Pine), a twenty-something, fast-talking salesman, is tasked with fulfilling his estranged father’s last wishes – delivering an inheritance to a sister he never knew he had. Dreamworks Pictures will release the film on June 29, 2012.

Black Dog, Red Dog is based on poet Stephen Dobyns’ book that focuses on his life from the 1950′s to 1980′s. The film will be feature length though it will be made up of a series of short films directed by Franco’s students.

Franco made a similar film last year about the life of C.K. Williams based on his book Tar, in which Franco starred alongside Jessica Chastain, Michelle Williams, Mila Kunis, Whoopi Goldbergh, Zach Braff, Bruce Campbell and Henry Hopper.

Personally, I think there needs to be more films made about poets so I’m all for this. I love Franco’s work and the cast he is gathering is quite impressive.

Black Dog, Red Dog is currently filming in New York until the end of the month and both Black Dog, Red Dog and Tar are expected to be released later this year.
