Octavia Spencer, Quvenzhané Wallis and Diane Kruger will join the drama "Fathers And Daughters" says Variety
The film tracks two different time periods in the lives of a father and daughter who live in Manhattan. The first period is in the 1980s in which a famous novelist and widower (Russell Crowe) struggles with mental illness as he tries to raise his 5-year old daughter. The second follows that now 30-year old daughter (Amanda Seyfried) who battles her own turbulent childhood demons in contemporary New York.
Spencer will play the head of the psychiatric clinic where Seyfried counsels troubled children. Wallis will play a patient who has been mute since her mother was murdered. Kruger will play the sister-in law of Crowe’s character, who blames him for the death of her sister. Wallis will play one of Seyfried’s patients that hasn’t uttered a syllable in the year since her mother was murdered.
Former “Breaking Bad” star Aaron Paul also stars. He and Seyfried acted together previously on the cable series Big Love.
Brad Desch ("Shotgun Lovesongs") wrote the script from which Gabriele Muccino's calling the shots.
Craig J. Flores, Nicolas Chartier, and Sherryl Clark will produce.
