It was announced today that Billy Crudup ("Almost Famous," "Watchmen"), Anton Yelchin ("Star Trek," "Terminator Salvation," "Like Crazy"), Selena Gomez ("Spring Breakers") and Laurence Fishburne ("The Matrix" trilogy, "Contagion, "Man of Steel") will star alongside William H. Macy ("Fargo") and Felicity Huffman ("Desperate Housewives") in Unified Pictures' music drama "Rudderless." Macy is making his feature directorial debut, directing "Rudderless."
The film is being produced by Keith Kjarval through his Unified Pictures production/finance banner.
"Rudderless" is a musical drama about the power of a parent's love. When a grieving father in a downward spiral stumbles across a box of his deceased son's original music, he forms a band, hoping to find peace in the wake of his tragic loss.
Casey Twenter and Jeff Robison adapted the screenplay from the original story they wrote with William H. Macy. Brad Greiner, through his Amberdale production banner, is also producing alongside Kjarval and Unified.
Principal photography will commence this April in Oklahoma. Radiant International is handling foreign sales on the film.
