We already had a
little chat about the upcoming
Matt Piedmont‘s Spanish comedy
Casa de mi Padre or if you prefer “House of my father.”
So, by now, you know that
Will Ferrell is attached to star in it, and to produce the whole thing.
Today, we're here for a little casting update, because
Diego Luna (that we all remember from
Milk) and
Gael Garcia Bernal (best known from
Blindness) are joining the project as well!
At this moment, not much is known about the project, because the plot is being kept under wraps.
Still, according to some reports, the film will adopt the style of dramatic Mexican ‘telenovela' soap, and will have English subtitles.
Diego Luna will play Ferrell's brother, while Gael Garcia Bernal plays “a family friend.” Also in the cast are Genesis Rodriguez as Ferrell's love interest, Pedro Armendariz Jr., Hector Jimenez and Adrian Martinez.
Emilio Diez Barroso and Darlene Caamano Loquet of NALA Films are teaming up with Will Ferrell, Adam McKay, Kevin Messick and Jessica Elbaum of Gary Sanchez Productions to produce Casa De Mi Padre and NALA Films is fully financing
Casa de mi Padre which is set to start shooting this September in California.
