The directors behind LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE (2006) have released the trailer for their upcoming Fox Searchlight romantic comedy RUBY SPARKS.
Paul Dano plays Calvin, a hopeless romantic and uninspired author who decides to write a fictional novel around made-up character, Ruby Sparks (played by Zoe Kazan, who wrote the screenplay). A week later, Ruby is sitting in his living room! The film then follows Calvin’s actions as he tries to convince people she is (and simultaneously isn’t) real.
Husband-and-wife co-directors Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris were the couple behind LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE and this looks to be in the same vein – quirky, funny and lovable. Antonio Banderas, Deborah Ann Woll, Steve Coogan, Elliot Gould, Chris Messina and Annette Bening also star alongside Dano and Kazan, giving this potential indie hit a solid cast.
