Elle Fanning (Super 8, The Neon Demon, The Big One) will play alongside Timothee Chalamet (Dune) AND Monica Barbara (Top Gun: nonconformist) towards James MangoldBob Dylan biopic, A complete stranger.
The film centers on a young Bob Dylan (Chalamet), who “rocks the music world in 1965, as he performs on an electric guitar for the first time.” Dylan “embraced rock n roll and traded his acoustic guitar for an amp and electric guitar”, which “created a huge hype”. But it “cemented rock music’s status”.
Fanning will play Dylan’s early 1960s love interest, college student and artist Sylvie Russo. The screenplay of the film was written by Jay Cocks (New York gangs) with Mangold making revisions to it. Dylan’s longtime manager Jeff Rosen is a producer on the film.
Fanning is a talented young actress and it’s great to see her land another great film role like this. I have no doubt that Mangold will make a solid film. The kid has a lot of big plans in the kitchen right now Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, Swamp thing for DC Studios ea Star Wars film for Lucasfilm.
The film went into production in New York this summer.
