Film Casting: THE DOWNSLOPE, MIDNIGHT SUN, Michael Keaton in IMAGINE AGENTS

Come And Find Me

Annabelle Wallis has now boarded the film as the female lead, Claire. The story follows [Aaron Paul]’s character, David, who must track down his missing girlfriend after he realizes she’s not who she was pretending to be.

Miracles From Heaven

Queen Latifah has signed on to star opposite Jennifer Garner in Sony’s faith-based drama Miracles From Heaven.

The actress joins Garner, who already had boarded the project, in the Patricia Riggen-helmed film, which is based on Christy Beam’s book of the same name that recounts how her young daughter miraculously overcame an incurable, life-threatening digestive disorder.

Adapted by Randy Brown (Trouble with the Curve) the story centers on Beam (Garner) and a series of miracles that unfolded, leaving her family, her daughter’s doctors and the community baffled. Latifah will play a Boston waitress — something of an earthly angel — who befriends the sick girl and Beam during their visits to Boston Children’s Hospital. She steps up to provide comfort and a helping hand when they need it most, and her life ends up transformed by her interaction with the family.

Imagine Agents

Michael Keaton…is attached to star and produce Imagine Agents, an adaptation of a Boom! comic set up at Fox.

the story tackles the idea that the imaginary friends of children are actually very real and centers on an organization titled I.M.A.G.I.N.E., which handles things when these figments get out of control.

the comic tells of a jaded 20-year veteran agent who must mentor a young archivist, with a routine day becoming something much larger.

Unforgettable

Denise Di Novi…will make her directorial debut with Unforgettable, a female-centric thriller set at Warner Bros.

With a script written by Christina Hodson and David Leslie Johnson, the story sees a woman struggling to start a new life with a new husband and his daughter but finds herself tormented by the man’s manipulative and mentally unstable ex-wife.

The project was to have been directed by Amma Asante (Belle) as a starring vehicle for Kerry Washington. But when Washington committed to playing Anita Hill in HBO’s movie about the Clarence Thomas’ 1991 Supreme Court confirmation hearings, Asante moved on, leaving a void.
