On the 20th anniversary for her foray into show business, Westworld star Evan Rachel Wood is set to make her directorial debut this year, and she has lined up quite the cast to join her.
Jenny Slate, Alison Pill and Cynthia Erivo are set to star alongside Wood in a mysterious road trip movie that will soon begin filming in Vancouver, according to Vulture’s new profile of Slate.
On July 1, 2018 Evan Rachel Wood posted an update on the movie indicating that it was stuck in development hell, unable to get financing. She tweeted out:
Fyi I have been pitching a film, starring 4 amazing actresses, written by 2 women, to be directed by me, for TWO YEARS, to nothing but room after room of white MEN and ‘weirdly’
no one has given it money. And we wonder why there is a bias in hollywood?? Your move guys. (x)Pretty much every woman on my timeline is like YES!! And everyone who is saying “well the idea probably sucks..”
Guess who? Not saying ALL men, but a vast majority still cant handle. And this is where we are in the film industry and pretty much everywhere. (x)
