Justin Timberlake, Jeff Bridges and Mary Steenburgen have all signed up to appear in The Open Road. The indie tells the story of a young man (Timberlake) heading to home to be with his ailing mother (Steenburgen) and trying to connect with his father (Bridges), a legendary athlete, along the way.
The film is to be written and directed by Michael Meredith and begins shooting in America's southern states later this month.
