NEW PROJECT : THE BIG YEAR
date: July 27th, 2010
New movie from director David Frankel will get original score from Theodore Shapiro who already started working on his music. The project marks third collaboration between the director and the composer following highly successful The Devil Wears Prada and Marley and Me. The Big Year features impressive cast including Owen Wilson, Steve Martin, Jack Black, Angelica Huston, Rashida Jones, Brian Dennehy, Diane West, Rosamund Pike and many others. The film is based on the book by Mark Obmascik, which tells the story of three avid bird watchers who compete to spot the rarest birds in North America at a prestigious annual event. The film is currently in early post-production and probably won't be released until the end of the year - no specific release date has been set so far...
