With Amy Adams, Jake Gyllenhaal, Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Michael Shannon aboard, A Single Man’s Tom Ford is not finished gathering his cast for his second directorial effort, Nocturnal Animals. He now has Armie Hammer joining the roster.
Ford based his script on Austin Wright’s 1993 novel Tony And Susan. Split into two chunks, one part of plot follows a woman (Adams), who receives a book manuscript and a note asking for her opinion on it, sent by her ex-husband, who she left 20 years before. In the other, Gyllenhaal plays a man whose family holiday turns violent.
Taylor-Johnson is aboard to play a mysterious man who may pose a threat to Gyllenhaal’s family, while Shannon will be the detective who investigates the incident. Hammer, meanwhile, will be Adams' current husband.
Focus Features is backing the film, which Ford is looking to have on screens next year. Hammer is on screens now in The Man From U.N.C.L.E., and has worked on several movies including thriller Mine, period drama The Birth Of A Nation and Ben Wheatley’s latest, action thriller Free Fire. He’s also attached to Stanley Tucci’s next film as writer/director, Final Portrait.
