We haven’t seen much of Jason Priestley in the last few years. He’s popped up in guest roles on TV shows like Psych and Haven and took the lead role in the series Call Me Fitz. Now he’s decided to go behind the camera, to direct his first theatrical movie, Cas & Dylan.
It’s not his first directorial outing, as he’s helmed numerous episodes of TV shows and a few television movies. Now its seems he’s got enough practise in to go to cinemas, and THR reports he’s got Richard Dreyfuss onboard to star.
Dreyfuss will play Dr. Cas Pepper, a dying man whose plans to check out on his own terms, but takes a reluctant detour when he winds up on the lam with a young woman, played by Tatiana Maslany. The Canadian indie movie is working from a script by Jessie Gabe (Being Erica).
