May 11 2006
The cast for Mike White's 'Year of the Dog' is slowly but surely coming together, with Peter Sarsgaard, Regina King, John C Reilly and Laura Dern all in talks to star.
Molly Shannon ('Never Been Kissed', 'Serendipity') has already signed up to play Peggy, a young secretary who forced to make dramatic changes in her life when her beloved dog Pencil dies.
'School of Rock' helmer Mike White will both write and direct the film, which is due to start shooting in LA next month.
