Movie Old Pals Henry Winkler Brian Cox Emma Roberts Evan Rachel Wood about 3 days agoby Jessica Fisher

Golden Globe and Emmy winners Henry Winkler (Barry) and Brian Cox (Succession) are set to star with Emma Roberts (American Horror Story) and Golden Globe and Emmy nominee Evan Rachel Wood (Westworld) in the comedy Old Pals, which will be directed by Emmy winner Wendey Stanzler (Sex And The City).

Based on a screenplay by Rick Cisario, the fun-sounding film follows comical opposites and recent widowers, Ira (Winkler) and Jimmy (Cox), who are forced to become friends by their conspiring daughters (Roberts & Wood). Their initial stubbornness gives way to a journey of unexpected friendship, proving that family has a way of bringing even the most unlikely people together.

Neon International will represent the foreign sales rights and introduce the film at the European FIlm Market in Berlin next week while CAA Media Finance and Verve Ventures will represent the North American rights.
