Variety reports that Meryl Streep is already set to star as the mother of an altar-bound young girl determined to meet her biological dad.

Per the Hollywood Reporter, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Catherine Keener and Michelle Williams are in talks to star in Synecdoche, New York, the directing debut of Oscar-winning scribe Charlie Kaufman. Hoffman will play a theater director, and Keener and Williams his first and second wives. read more
