Shaun Nichols Lands Matthew McConaughey, Reese Witherspoon For 'Take Shelter' Followup 'Mud'

BREAKING: Take Shelter helmer Shaun Nichols has set Dirt as his next film, and it is in talks with Matthew McConaughey, Reese Witherspoon and Tree of Life's Tye Sheridan to star. Everest Entertainment is fully financing and Lisa Marie Falcons is creating alongside Sarah Eco-friendly and FilmNation Entertainment's Aaron Ryder. Eco-friendly would be a producer of Nichols' festival favorite Take Shelter, that was acquired sight unseen by The new sony Pictures Classics at Sundance. FilmNation's Glen Basner is professional creating and handling worldwide sales. CAA and FilmNation will broker a domestic deal. FilmNation made the offer for Take Shelter, which won Critic's Week at Cannes. Dirt is really a redemptive tale of the charming fugitive and the unlikely friendship having a 14-years old kid who's going to help Dirt avoid what the law states plus some tough bounty predators so he is able to reunite together with his true love Juniper (Witherspoon). Nichols authored the script. Shaun Nichols has written an attractive story with wealthy figures learning valuable training through existence-altering conditions. With Jeffs vision, this is a thing of beauty, states Everest Entertainment founder Falcone. Its an amazing script which Shaun, together with Matthew McConaughey, Reese Witherspoon and Tye Sheridan, brings to existence. Weve been fortunate to utilize incredible filmmakers like Danny Boyle, Tom McCarthy and Rodrigo Garcia and therefore are grateful to include Shaun Nichols to that particular list.
