London:
The Hours star Julianne Moore is set to join Scarlett Johansson and Joseph Gordon-Levitt in the actor's feature film directorial debut.
The 51-year-old actress is in negotiations to play the unlikely mentor to a modern day Don Juan (played by Joseph) who is on a mission to become less selfish. Johansson plays his love interest, reported Digital Spy online.
Gordon-Levitt has also written the script and has said this is the first time he was happy enough with his writing to turn it into a feature film.
"This is the first time I finished a feature film I thought was good enough to make into a movie. I've written others, including one mammothy huge sprawling thing thatencompasses my entire point of view of everything since I was 20 years old. Those efforts are in a drawer somewhere. I wrote myself a helluva role, one that people wouldn't necessarily thought of me for," he said.
Shooting of the untitled film is expected to begin next month.
