Bruce Willis and Danny Trejo interested in Geoffrey Fletcher’s VIOLET AND DAISY by: Joshua Brunsting

Talk about post-Oscar buzz.

Coming off of his shocking Oscar win for his screenplay for last year’s hit film, PRECIOUS, scribe Geoffrey Fletcher has not only found a film to get behind for a directorial debut, but one hell of a cast to join him on his first outing.

According to The Playlist, the film, VIOLET AND DAISY, not only stars Carey Mulligan and Saoirse Ronan, but that the film has found the interest of such thespians as Bruce Willis and even one Danny Trejo. The film has been compared to the likes of THELMA & LOUISE and even SUPERBAD, and has apparently gotten quite a load of attention from actors and studios alike.
The writer will also be helping director Doug Liman on his upcoming prison riot film, ATTICA, but it looks as though VIOLET will be getting in front of lenses prior to that hotly anticipated true to life story.

That said, while I dig both Mulligan and Ronan, I really don’t have much interest in seeing what Bruce Willis has up his sleeve, particularly after his recent run of films. However, Trejo is always fun, but at this point, this is a wait and see, for sure.
