Shailene Woodley is the latest to latch onto the new Alexander Payne directed project called The Descendant. The story revolves around an attorney, to be played by George Clooney, who is forced to get closer to his daughters after a family tragedy (Variety). Woodley will be playing the oldest daughter in the feature written by Jim Rash and Nat Faxon. The picture is actually based on a novel that’s written by Kaui Hart Hemmings that was published in 2008.
Payne’s previous directed work includes About Schmidt and the popular 2004 feature Sideways. Not only is he in the midst of pre-production work for The Descendants but he’s also announced to be attached to direct the novel adaptation of Fork in the Road.
