New cast might not Let You Down
Screen Gems is going crazy with casting for Love Don’t Let Me Down as actors Tim McGraw, Gwyneth Paltrow, Garrett Hedlund and Leighton Meester join up on the upcoming musical. The story centers on a rising young singer-songwriter (Hedlund) who becomes involved with a fallen country singer, to be played by Paltrow. As they embark on a career resurrection tour with her husband and manager (McGraw) and a beauty queen-turned-singer (Meester), romantic entanglements and old demons threaten to derail them all (Variety).
Once again Tobey Maguire is attached to produce along with Jenno Topping. The script is penned up and is being directed by Shana Feste. The film will be not only under Screen Gems for distribution but will also be under Maguire Entertainment.
