And Now, a Brief Break for Something Only Vaguely TIFF-related

Okay, this is interesting (at least to me).

I’ve been tracking this Bradley Rust Gray lesbian-werewolf project, Jack and Diane, since way back in 2008, when Ellen Page was attached to the project with Juno co-star Olivia Thirlby, then suddenly not attached post-Juno’s success.

So as I was poking around on IMDb to learn a bit about the star of Dirty Girl — who is, interestingly enough, named Juno Temple — I stumbled across the intriguing bit of info that Temple is now listed on Jack and Diane’s IMDb site as playing the part of Diane in the project, with Riley Keough, who played twin sister to Dakota Fanning’s Cherie Currie in The Runaways, now listed as playing Jack.

Bear in mind that my only source for this is IMDb, so this isn’t exactly earth-shattering investigative journalism. Just a random bit of info on a project I’ve been following interest for a long time now. Now, if only the film actually gets made, and is actually good, we’ll be getting somewhere.
