Weinsteins make ‘Dream’ come true

Date:

One of the hot titles at the Cannes market has just got picked up – according to Variety it looks like a family reunion. The Weinstein Company have acquired the distribe rights of the folks at Wild Bunch to Woody Allen's suspense drama. Back in the day when Miramax was run by the bros., Allen had four of his titles handled by them.  

Starring Ewan McGregor, Colin Farrell and Tom Wilkinson, Cassandra's Dream tells the tale of two brothers with serious financial woes. When a third party proposes they turn to crime, things go bad and the two become enemies.

The director is next working on 
the-shot-in-Spain feature that will yet again star buxom blonde Scarlett Johansson opposite Javier Bardem.
