Leto and Polley are 'Nobody'
New rom-com starring nobodies
Now I know there are fans of Jared Leto out there and maybe Sarah Polley even has a fansite or two, but truthfully they aren't much when it comes to naming off big name stars so to have them cast as the romantic leads of the new film Mr. Nobody is quite ironic.
Jaco Van Dormael penned the script and will direct the rom-com inspired by the "butterfly effect," the chaos-theory notion that the beat of a butterfly's wings can cause a storm thousands of miles away. Set in the not-so-distant future, the story follows Nemo Nobody (Leto) who, at 120 years old, is the last mortal surrounded by happy immortals as he relives his real and imaginary years of marriage.
Sounds rivetting. My guess is that this becomes a film festival dropout, or, at best, the Weinsteins pick it up and never release it.
The production, due to start next week, has a budget in the $40 million-$50 million range and will shoot in Brussels, Montreal and Berlin.
