This is for those who enjoyed their same sequence non-pairing pairing in Stranger Than Fiction, veteran actors Dustin Hoffman and Emma Thompson are getting one of those rare opportunities to play romantic leads while very much past the middle age point. Variety reports that the pair will star in Overture Films' newest project set to start in London in September and produced by Tim Perell and Nicola Usborne with Jawal Nga exec producing. Last Chance Harvey will be Joel Hopkins.
Written by Hopkins and Usborne, this is about a man down on his luck finds an unlikely female companion while in London attending his daughter's wedding.
I’ve yet to hear about this particular Brit filmmaker, but Hopkins won a BAFTA award for most promising newcomer five years ago for their work on Jump Tomorrow (2001).
