Any info on the untitled Paul Thomas Anderson project


Did anyone find anymore info on the new PTA project possibly starring Daniel Day Lewis. Its rather strange DDL's most recent pic is Abraham Lincoln. Is he doing theatre, taking a break, not getting offers? Very strange for such a superbly talented actor.

He's taking time off. He hasn't done theatre in 20 years or so, I believe. I think I read somewhere that he's been hesitant to do anything following Lincoln because he doesn't think he can "top" that performance.

He's very picky about the characters he plays.

I usually get notices in my email when I get replies. Never got your reply. Sorry for the late response. I appreciate you telling me the situation. Bet DDL would be great n the theatre. Sounds like he thinks the superb actor takes his acting quite seriously.

From what I've learnt so far it seems the movie will be based on the life of Norman Hartnell. Not certain, but it seems rather likely to me.
