Weeds' Mary-Louise Parker may go Red with Bruce Willis

Weeds star Mary-Louise Parker is in talks to join the cast of the movie Red, a thriller starring Bruce Willis.

If negotiations pan out, MLP would play the love interest for Willis’ character, a retired black-ops agent targeted by younger, more tech-savvy assassins.

Their co-stars could include John C. Reilly as a paranoid retired CIA agent, plus Morgan Freeman and Helen Mirren in roles that haven’t been disclosed.

Before Red, which starts shooting in January, Parker will star in the film Solitary Man, a black comedy in which she plays the girlfriend role again, this time opposite Michael Douglas.
