Coens and Penn get their men
The casts are coming together for 'No Country for Old Men' and 'Into the Wild'.
Jun 8 2006
Two high profile forthcoming features have filled out their casts with some big names this week.
Woody Harrelson ('Natural Born Killers') and Stephen Root ('Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story') will join Tommy Lee Jones, Josh Brolin and Javier Bardem in the Coen brothers' 'No Country for Old Men', a western thriller that we first reported on here.
And Sean Penn has persuaded William Hurt and Marcia Gay Harden to join the cast of 'Into the Wild'.
The film tells the tale of Christopher McCandless, a high school graduate who abandoned his material possessions in 1992 and hitchhiked to Alaska to live in the wilderness. His dead body was found four months later in an abandoned bus at a remote campsite.
Vince Vaughn and Catherine Keener are already attached to the pic, while Emile Hirsch will play McCandless.
Rest assured, we'll bring you more news on both projects as and when it breaks.
