Emily Blunt – who stole several scenes in The Devil Wears Prada – is joining the cast of The Great Buck Howard.
The previously announced film follows a down-on-his-luck magician (John Malkovich) and his assistant (Colin Hanks) who are trying to put the wand-waver’s career back on track. They hire a publicist (Blunt) to help spread awareness of a new stunt.
Colin’s dad – that’s Tom Hanks, then – is also starring in the movie, which is written by Sean McGinly, who also started directing it this week in Los Angeles.
