Matt Damon and Pedro Pascal have joined the cast of filmmaker Ethan Coen’s solo project ‘Drive-Away Dolls.’
Damon and Pascal join with previously announced cast Margaret Qualley and Geraldine Viswanathan, Beanie Feldstein, Colman Domingo and Bill Camp for the comedy offering.
The film follows Jamie, an uninhibited free spirit bemoaning yet another breakup with a girlfriend, and her demure friend Marian who desperately needs to loosen up. In search of a fresh start, the two embark on an impromptu road trip to Tallahassee, but things quickly go awry when they cross paths with a group of inept criminals along the way.

Coen directs from a script he co-wrote with his wife Tricia Cooke. Coen and Cooke also produced the film alongside Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner. The project is a co-production of both Focus Features and Working Title. Coen previously worked with Cooke on his documentary from last year ‘Jerry Lee Lewis: Trouble in Mind.’
