#TORONTOBOUND: ROBERT PATTINSON & DANE DEHAAN DUE IN TORONTO FEBRUARY FOR “LIFE”

He’s back! Is it safe to say that Robert Pattinson by now call Toronto a second home, filming his third Movie here in just three years?  I mean, he’s practically Canadian now!

LIFE is set to begin production in Toronto on February 18, 2014, wrapping about one month later. The Film from Control Director Anton Corbijn centers on a Photograph for LIFE Magazine, Dennis Stock, assigned to shoot James Dean. The two went-on to become great Friends.

Starring in the role of Stock will be Pattinson, while Up-and-Comer Dane DeHaan – just in Toronto at TIFF ’13 for Kill Your Darlings –  has been cast as Dean. Stock shot the iconic Photos of Dean which went on to become synonymous with the Star’s iconic brand of coolness.

News of the $15-million Production broke last September via The Hollywood Reporter, but within the blink of an eye, the time soon is before us. Also beginning production simultaneously next month is Guillermo del Toro‘s Crimson Peak, as announced previously. More details here.

  Give yourself a Patt on the back, Toronto!  We’ve waited long for some real Starpower in this City!
