TriStar Productions has announced
that Meryl Streep is set to lead the upcoming comedy drama Ricki and the Flash
from director Jonathan Demme and screenwriter Diablo Cody.
Ricki and the Flash tells the story
of a woman who chases her rock n' roll dream at the expense of her family, but
gets one last chance at making things right.
TriStar Productions Chairman Tom
Rothman said, “We feel lucky as hell to have been selected by such outstanding
filmmakers to be the dive bar for Ricki and her band. We aspire to be the best
roadies ever. I have been fortunate enough to have personally worked with each
of the Fab Four talents involved here before and know well how supremely gifted
they are. This is a great day in the life of our company.”
And producer Marc Platt said: “Mason and I are thrilled. Diablo and Meryl are two of the women I admire most and we are lucky to be collaborating with them. Jonathan and I first worked together on 'Philadelphia' at TriStar, so the homecoming to the studio is particularly sweet. I know Jonathan will do a masterful job on the film and that we will all be in good hands with Tom Rothman and his team.”
