With our man E.Walk hitting Comic Con this week, one flick I hope he comes back with dirt on is Francis Ford Coppola’s newly truncated TWIXT. After-all, Coppola is making his return to the San Diego bash for the first time in 20 years!
Anyway, Entertainment Weekly has premiered the first photo of star Elle Fanning on the set of TWIXT. As you can see, Francis hasn’t lost his ability to guide young talent. Fanning, if you haven’t seen, is said to have given a great performance in J.J. Abrams’ SUPER 8. Here she’s rocking some kind of glam-punk look. I can dig it!
Also starring Val Kilmer, Joanne Whalley (below), Bruce Dern, Ben Chaplin, Don Novello and David Paymer – TWIXT centers on:
A writer with a declining career arrives in a small town as part of his book tour and gets caught up in a murder mystery involving a young girl. That night in a dream, he is approached by a mysterious young ghost named V. He’s unsure of her connection to the murder in the town, but is grateful for the story being handed to him. Ultimately he is led to the truth of the story, surprised to find that the ending has more to do with his own life than he could ever have anticipated.
TWIXT likely hits theaters in time for Halloween.
