A MILLION LITTLE PIECES is based upon the best-selling book by James Frey which sparked controversy when it was revealed that the author exaggerated and fabricated large parts of what was billed to be a "brutally honest" memoir. The not-quite-so-honest story will be getting the big-screen treatment in the latest film from Sam Taylor-Johnson (FIFTY SHADES OF GREY), who also co-wrote the script along with her husband/star Aaron Taylor-Johnson (OUTLAW KING).
After walking up on a plane with no memory of the past few weeks, 23 year-old alcoholic drug addict James is given two options: treatment or death. What follows is a journey of healing his body and soul, but also connecting with other kindred spirits who are fighting for a better life. In addition to Aaron Taylor-Johnson, A MILLION LITTLE PIECES also stars Billy Bob Thornton (BAD SANTA), Charlie Hunnam (TRIPLE FRONTIER), Giovanni Ribisi (AVATAR 2), Juliette Lewis (MA), Odessa Young (THE PROFESSOR), and David Dastmalchian (DUNE).
The official synopsis for A MILLION LITTLE PIECES:
An alcoholic and a drug addict, 23 year-old James has two options: treatment or death. After waking up on a plane with a smashed up face and no memory of the past few weeks, he heads to rehab where he discovers much more than detox and therapy.
