Judy Greer, Alison Pill, Alexander Skarsgard, and More Join Michael Shannon's Film ERIC LARUE

Michael Shannon is making his directorial debut with a film adaptation of Eric Larue, and the cast for his film has been announced. That cast includes Judy Greer, Alison Pill, Paul Sparks, Tracy Letts, Annie Parisse, Kate Arrington, and Alexander Skarsgard.

The film was written by Brett Neveu, and it’s based on his play, the story of which “follows the mother of a 17-year-old boy, who shot and killed three of his classmates. As she faces a meeting of the mothers of the other boys, and a long-delayed visit to her son in prison, the story becomes not about the violence but about what we choose to think and do in order to survive trauma.”

This is going to be an incredibly heavy and emotional film, and there are a lot of incredibly talented people involved to tell this story properly.
