Montreal: A long list of famous actors are in Montreal, all to appear in the Bob Dylan sort-of biopic I’m Not There by Todd Haynes (Safe, Far from Heaven). Haynes, true to his oddball form, has cast six different actors as the iconic singer-songwriter, among them Richard Gere, Heath Ledger, Christian Bale and Cate Blanchett. The production is shooting at Mel’s Cité du Cinéma.
Haynes cowrote the screenplay with Oren Moverman (Jesus’ Son) and is paired with DOP Ed Lachman (Erin Brockovich, Far From Heaven). I’m Not There shoots until Oct. 10. for Endgame Entertainment, Killer Films and others.
