Nolte and Suvari Explore Pittsburgh
The long-awaited movie
version of Michael Chabon's 1988 novel, The Mysteries of
Pittsburgh, keeps chugging along.
Romeo told you that Rawson Marshall Thurber would write and
direct and that Peter Sarsgaard and Sienna Miller had been
cast.
Now more actors have joined the project, including Jon Foster (Stay
Alive, TV's Windfall), who stars as Art Bechstein (replacing
the previously reported-on Max Minghella), as a young man who finds
himself in a love triangle with Sarsgaard and Miller's characters.
Nick Nolte will play Art's dad, a mobster, while American
Beauty star and erstwhile Six Feet Under lesbian Mena
Suvari has signed on as Phlox, Art's bookstore boss and eccentric
sometime-girlfriend.
Cameras are finally rolling in Pittsburgh.
