A little update on Noah Baumbach’s relationship dramedy “Greenberg,” which stars Ben Stiller.
As previously reported the film also stars Rhys Ifans, Brie Larson and Juno Temple and mumblecore “star” Greta Gerwig and centers on a New Yorker (Stiller) who moves to L.A. to housesit for his brother and figure out his life and ends up having a relationship with his brother’s assistant.
But according to a press release about the production beginning in Los Angeles last week (and re-confirmed with the publicist), the film has dropped it’s “Greenberg” title (which is how it’s written in the script) and reverted to an untitled state. Perhaps “Greenberg” doesn’t quite sell it to audiences, and we can understand that.
The script was written by Baumbach, but based on a story that he and his wife Jennifer Jason Leigh conceived together. She’s one of the producers on the film as is Scott Rudin. There appears to be no release date for it yet, but it’s conceivable it could come out in fall 2009, no? We’re psyched for it.
