Paul Bettany is turning director with the indie flick Shelter and now he’s started putting the cast together. He’s started close to home as Variety reports that he’s cast his wife, Jennifer Connelly, in the movie, and also former co-star Anthony Mackie.
Unfortunately it’s not known what they’ll be doing in the film, as the plot of the movie is being kept under wraps. Bettany also wrote the script.
Daniel Wagner of BiFrost Pictures is financing and producing, with the current plan being to shoot the movie later this year. The film will be looking for distribution at the upcoming Toronto International Film Festival.
