2012 Sundance Predictions: Lee Toland Krieger’s Celeste and Jesse Forever

Lee Toland Krieger made his Sundance debut with the drama The Vicious Kind back in 2009, and we think this rom com Black List script mentioned screenplay by thesps Rashida Jones and Will McCormack has a good chance at nabbing a Premieres showing. Celeste and Jesse Forever features a parka friendly ensemble of Elijah Wood, Eric Christian Olsen, Ari Graynor, Friends with Benefits & I Love You, Man co-stars Jones and Andy Samberg along with Park City staple Emma Roberts in the lead.
