Weeds star Mary-Louise Parker has signed on for The Well, a psychological drama co-starring Guy Pearce and produced by Philip Seymour Hoffman is producing.
Empire Online reports that the project was announced at the Sundance film fest and will feature Parker and Pearce as a wealthy New York couple “whose obsessive pursuit of salvation ultimately leads to destruction.” Aside from that tease, details on the film are scarce.
The movie still has to line up a financier, but with three A-list names attached we’re guessing it’ll move forward fairly quickly.
Parker, shown here running errands in NYC this fall, had other news out of Sundance: Howl, the biopic about Beat poet Allen Ginsberg in which she plays a supporting role, debuted to mixed reviews. Of course, with a cast including James Franco, Jon Hamm, David Strathairn, Treat Williams, Bob Balaban and Jeff Daniels, some reviewers may have expected a less difficult, more commercial offering.
