Surprisingly big-chested recovering kleptomaniac Winona Ryder will be starring alongside Wes Bentley and Ray Romano in writer/director Geoffrey Haley’s romantic dramedy THE LAST WORD. In it, Bentley plays a ghost writer for people who’d rather their suicide notes be a little more poetic than “goodbye, cruel world”. In essence, he’s akin to a literary Kevorkian. When he meets the sister (Ryder) of one of his “clients”, however, he embarks on a hijinks-filled, montage-ready adventure that ultimately leads to love, redemption and epiphanies about life. Filming is scheduled for later this month in Los Angeles. Ryder can next be seen in David Wain’s comedy spoof THE TEN and the comedy SEX AND DEATH 101.
