MAP TO THE STARS already has a rather star-studded cast, which includes Julianne Moore, John Cusack, Mia Wasikowska, Olivia Williams and Robert Pattinson, and it as just been announced that Emilia McCarthy, Justin Kelly and Jayne Heitmeyer have also been added to the list.
MAP TO THE STARS takes a look at the growing culture of celebrity obsession, and isn’t the only movie to study this cultural change, with the most recent release on the subject THE BLING RING starring Emma Watson. In MAP TO THE STARS, we see John Cusack play an LA psychotherapist and life coach who has made his fortune publishing self-help books. His wife (Olivia Williams) is an overbearing mother of their 13-year-old son, who are then joined by their estranged daughter (Wasikowska), who has just been released from a psychiatric hospital. She meets and befriends an aspiring actor/limo driver, played by Robert Pattinson.
Some of MAP TO THE STARS’ creative team includes longtime collaborators with Cronenberg, including director of photography Peter Suschitzky, production designer Carol Spier, costume designer Denise Cronenberg, editor Ron Sanders and Oscar-winning composer Howard Shore.
MAP TO THE STARS has started production in Toronto and Los Angeles and has a 2014 release date.
