Annette Bening, fresh off her starring turn in last year’s 20th Century Women, is the latest to join the all-star cast that includes Oscar Isaac, Olivia Wilde, Antonio Banderas, and Samuel L. Jackson. The story centers on a couple (Oscar Isaac and Olivia Wilde) that lead a multigenerational love story spanning both decades and continents, from the streets of New York to the Spanish countryside, and are all connected by a single event.
Bening is in high-demand after Mike Mills’ 20th Century Women turned into a small hit last year.
Dan Fogelman, creator of decade-spanning relationship drama This Is Us, seems to be a big fan of ambitious storytelling projects.
She’s set to star as former Louisiana governor Kathleen Blanco in Ryan Murphy’s next American Crime Story season focusing on Hurricane Katrina.
