Even Hollywood megastars are sometimes eager to work on the cheap because they can accept to make profits based on the success of the film. Don't be surprised if
Jon Favreau‘s indie comedy
Chef meets these requirements.
New report says
Robert Downey Jr. will team up again with his Iron Man director and has joined the ensemble cast of his next project that's being sold at Cannes next week.
Sofia Vergara, John Leguizamo and
Bobby Cannavale were previously
set to headline. Favreau will star as a chef who quits his job and starts a food truck to ‘reclaim his artistic promise.' Vergara is attached to join Favreau as his character's ex-wife, while Boardwalk Empire actor Cannavale is in talks to also board the project as a sous-chef.
No word yet on Downey Jr.'s role. RDJ and Favreau can be currently seen in the third installment of the
Iron Man franchise.
Chef (not to be confused with the movie
Bradley Cooper is attached to) is set to start production in Los Angeles, July 8th, 2013.
