Bradley Cooper frontrunner to Star in Paul Thomas Anderson’s next film set in the 70s

Bradley Cooper is the first A-list actor to be in serious contention for Paul Thomas Anderson’s new film, described as a coming-of-age drama set in the San Fernando Valley during the 1970s. The Hollywood Reporter confirms Cooper is in talks to join the project in an unspecified role. Anderson is teaming up with MGM for the film after initially developing the untitled drama at Focus Features, which released “Phantom Thread” in 2017. IndieWire has reached out to MGM for further comment.

Production on Anderson’s new film was set to take place this spring and summer, until the pandemic delayed filming indefinitely. The script is reportedly about a high school student in the San Fernando Valley who is also a child actor. Anderson is a Valley native and has set three previous features in his hometown: “Boogie Nights,” “Magnolia,” and “Punch-Drunk Love.” The new film is rumored to combine the 1970s Valley setting of “Boogie Nights” with the multinarrative structure of “Magnolia.” THR reports Anderson is now eyeing a fall 2020 production start should it be safe to get cameras rolling.

Heath Ledger is dead and this boring guy has almost ten Oscar nominations and is allowed to star in movies! I despair.

I don't see why Cooper is considered hot--especially with longer hair, he looks like a rat.

BC did a great job in that Silver Lining movie, which actually surprised me, because I didn't think he had it in him to be a great actor.

PTA movies have become a bore though and painful to sit through.

Bradley should play a porn actor.

It’s mind boggling how he got so successful and famous.

Will Bradley play a closeted movie star who molests the teenagers?

R9, I think PTA movies have become better over time. Phantom Thread was fantastic.

I think he’s better looking with facial hair.
