Bradley Cooper and ‘There Will Be Blood’ filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson are set to team up for Anderson’s 1970’s San Fernando Valley Project.
Plot details are being kept top secret, but the film is said to involve multiple storylines revolving around a kid actor attending high school in the Valley. At this stage, it is unknown what role Cooper would be playing.
Anderson wrote and will produce the movie via his Ghoulardi Film Company banner, along with Sarah Murphy.
The project was initially due to start production in Spring/Summer 2020 before the pandemic hit. It is now looking likely that it will commence in the Autumn depending on how and when productions are able to begin shooting again in Los Angeles.
