Following the critical, and commercial success of THE DESCENDANTS director Alexander Payne has, apparently, got the green light for NEBRASKA a black and white road trip movie about an alcoholic and his estranged Son. Sound’s quirky enough for Payne whose previous credits include SIDEWAYS and ELECTION – both fantastic movies.
Bruce Dern (LAST MAN STANDING) is attached as the drunk on a trip to obtain a $1 million Publisher’s House Clearing sweepstake prize, with Will Forte (SNL) his son in tow. Dern is one of Hollywood’s most poorly utilised talents, and Forte is a tremendous comic talent add these into the house of Payne and you’ve got a recipe for success.
