Joaquin Phoenix to star in Woody Allen's next film
Since returning to public life and releasing I’m Still Here, a compilation of lo-fi jam sessions recorded while he was recuperating in New York and Los Angeles, Joaquin Phoenix has embarked on a series of intimate performances in front of writer-directors across America. Deadline is reporting that the summer leg of Phoenix’s Never-Ending Au-Tour will include dates with clarinetist Woody Allen, a mainstay of New York City’s coffee-shop world cinema scene. Though no details have emerged about the plot, setting, or backing band, fans should expect an Allen-centric set heavy on reinterpretations of older material.
