David Cronenberg è di nuovo al lavoro per il suo nuovo film, Maps to the stars, una ricognizione del mondo dorato di Hollywood e delle celebrities californiane.
A contemporary tale exploring the demons of our celebrity-obsessed society, story follows the Weiss family, which is led by Stafford (Cusack), a psychotherapist and life coach who made his fortune with self-help books. His wife (Williams) is the overbearing mother-manager of their 13-year-old son (Bird), a TV star recently out of drug rehab. Their estranged daughter (Wasikowska) has just been released from a psychiatric hospital and befriended a limo driver (Pattinson) who is also an aspiring actor.
One of Stafford’s celebrity clients is Havana (Moore), an actress with an unusual new assistant. Havana’s dream of reprising her dead mother’s (Gadon) starring role from the 1960s slowly crumbles while ghosts, death and all manner of vices collide.
Nel cast ci saranno John Cusack, Julianne Moore, Mia Wasikowska, Robert Pattinson, Olivia Williams e Sarah Gadon.
L’uscita è prevista per il 2014.
