Olivia Wilde Joins Spike Jonze’s Untitled Film with Joaquin Phoenix, Rooney Mara & Amy Adams
After a three year hiatus, Spike Jonze is returning to the director’s chair with his Untitled Project which will apparently center on a man who falls in love with the voice of some artificial intelligence device. The director has already signed up Joaquin Phoenix, Amy Adams and Rooney Mara and it looks like Olivia Wilde is the latest actress to join this impressive cast (via her Twitter).
As previously noted, this seems like a really odd premise but heck, this is Spize Jonze after all and who hasn’t seen these I-Phone commercials with Samuel L. Jackson talking to his phone like it’s his best friend? You would think he has lost his mind.
At any rate, Wilde has kept up a fairly impressive presence on the movie screen over the past year or two but it seems that her career has kind of stalled as she seem stuck in minor love interest roles. Hopefully, her upcoming projects such as Ron Howard’s F-1 racing drama Rush with Chris Hemsworth and the Jim Carrey comedy Burt Wonderstone will change that.

Olivia Wilde, Amy Adams, and Rooney Mara? Sounds like a fun time.
The casts are awesome. ill see it just for the cast
I wanted to come congratulate you on your three Lammy nominations, but I see that you’re playing it cool and haven’t posted anything yet. It’s one of the times when I wish we had a real red carpet ceremony so I could meet you in person!
That is a very impressive cast indeed!!
The great Samantha Morton is in this, too.
Oh now it’s a fucking party!
Sweet – I love Morton.
This is one eclectic cast, and whaddaya know, it’s directed by a quirky, awesome dude in Jonze. I’m definitely there.
Great to hear Spike Jonze is getting back behind the director’s chair. Always like to see what he comes up…one of the more interesting filmmakers in Hollywood.
I’ll watch it for Joaquin! Oh and yeah for Samantha Morton, such an underrated actress.
Well, four out of five names exciting me ain’t bad. I’m waiting for Wilde to really wow me with her acting. Sorry, but Tron: Legacy and Cowboys & Aliens just didn’t show me much.
