Charlize Theron to lead and produce Alfonso Cuarón's family drama Jane for Amazon Prime Video

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the genre-bending project is based on the relationship between Dick and his twin sister, Jane, who died six weeks after birth. The death affected Dick personally, and also influenced his creative work. Theron, Cuarón and Hackett will both produce the project, which is being helmed by Cuarón with Theron attached to star.

As per an official logline, Jane is “a moving, suspenseful and darkly humorous story about a woman’s unique relationship with her brilliant, but troubled twin, who also happens to be the celebrated novelist Philip K. Dick. While attempting to rescue her brother from predicaments both real and imagined, Jane plunges deeper and deeper into a fascinating world of his creation.”

“The story of Jane has been with me for as long as I can remember,” said Hackett. “Jane, my father’s twin sister who died a few weeks after birth, was at the center of his universe. Befitting a man of his unique imagination, this film will defy the conventions of a biopic and embrace the alternate reality Philip K. Dick so desperately desired—one in which his beloved sister survived beyond six weeks of age.”

“It is her story we will tell, her lens through which we will see him and his imagination. There is no better way to honor him than to grant him his wish, if only for the screen.” The companies set to produce Jane are Electric Shepherd Productions, Denver and Delilah Productions, and Esperanto Filmoj.

Alfonso Cuarón’s longtime producer and Head of Esperanto Filmoj, Gabriela Rodriguez, is set to produce alongside Denver and Delilah’s Beth Kono and AJ Dix, and Electric Shepherd Productions’ Head of Film and Television Sarah Scougal and creative executive Kalen Egan. Lila Rawlings, Creative Development at Esperanto Filmoj, will serve as executive producer.

Alia Bhatt says the F word at JIO MAMI Movie Mela while talking about Kareena Kapoor Khan We earlier told you how beauties Alia Bhatt and Kareena Kapoor Khan recently dropped in at the JIO MAMI Movie Mela 2019 and had a fun conversation with Karan Johar who turned moderator for one of the sessions. Apart from all the interesting revelations that they made, here's a hilarious gaffe from Alia's end that we are going to remember for a while. It so happened that the Bhatt girl was all praises for Kareena. She went on to heap praises on the Veere Di Wedding actor, but it came to an abrupt end after Alia realised she had just blurted out the 'F' word!  “She (Kareena) has genuinely been an inspiration to me. Earlier there was this thing that if an actress gets married, her career slows down a bit but she totally broke that for all of us,” Alia said. This was followed by how amazing Kareena's airport wardrobe really was. “Rocking that track pant with a pout, it’s just f...
