Focus Features has sent out a press release which announces that Colin Trevorrow's "Book of Henry" officially started production. Trevorrow also marked the date by posting the first behind-the-scenes photo which gives a look at three young actors starring in the film.
"Casting is everything. @jaedenlieberher @maddieziegler @jacobtremblay #TheBookofHenry," the director captioned the photo. Those three stars are Jaden Lieberher, Maddie Ziegler and Jacob Tremblay. They posed together in front of a wall with some concept arts hanging on it. One of the concept arts appears to be a tree house, which presumably becomes the property or filming location of the movie.
Lieberher previously starred in dramedy "St. Vincent" alongside Bill Murray and Melissa McCarthy. Tremblay was last seen in this year's Toronto International Film Festival hit "Room". As for Ziegler, she is well known for her dancing performance in Sia Furler's music video, "Chandelier" and "Elastic Heart". The press release also confirmed that Bobby Moynihan ("Saturday Night Live") had been officially cast in the film.
The original screenplay for "Book of Henry" is written by acclaimed novelist Gregg Hurwitz. Two-time Academy Award nominee Naomi Watts leads the cast which also includes Dean Norris ("Breaking Bad"), Lee Pace ("Guardians of the Galaxy") and Emmy Award winner Sarah Silverman.
"Book of Henry" centers on a story of a single mother raising two boys, one of whom is a genius. The official release date has yet to be announced, but the movie is expected to arrive in North America in 2016.
