A series of photos from Richard Linklater's upcoming romantic drama "Me and Orson Welles" has been unveiled. The four brand new images focus on giving movie lovers a first look into the two leading characters portrayed by Zac Efron and Christian McKay as well as the set photo with Linklater explaining something to McKay.
Leaving his "High School Musical" image behind, Efron can be seen posing as seventeen-year-old Richard Samuels. On one of the pictures, he can be seen sitting on a theater chair with a script on his hands, while on another picture, he can be seen holding drum sticks while talking with Welles. Additionally, one other photo displays Welles standing in front of applauding audience.
Based on Robert Kaplow's novel of the same name, "Me and Orson Welles" tells the story of Samuels, a teenager who gets the chance to make his big break when he is hired to star in Orson Welles' production of Julius Caesar. Falling in love with a production assistant, he soon learns the horrible secret of show business. The film which is yet to have its release date will be screened at the 2008 Toronto International Film Festival held from September 4 to 13.

WHEN DOES IT COME OUT IN AMERICA??!?!?!!
do you know when the premiere in london will be?
nice
Just saw the premiere at Toronto. Christian Mckay was perfect as Orson. Zac did a fine job acting. Claire was luminous. The 90 minute film felt like it was only 30 minutes because it was that good The picture itself was a work of art with the beauty of the photography. Another brilliant job by Dick Pope.
Dick Pope was the DP. The film was funny and dramatic and highlighted Orson Welles as the womanizing, spitting, vain, brilliant, petty, did I mention brilliant(?)actor/director. Christian McKay will soon rightfully be a big star and we can say we first saw him in Me and Orson Welles. Well done!!
Yeah!!! He's going to be great in this movie. I read the book and he is perfect for the role of Richard.
