A feature adaptation of Daniel Clowes' (Ghost World, Ice Haven, Mister Wonderful) acclaimed graphic novel, Wilson, is in the works at Fox Searchlight with Craig Johnson (The Skeleton Twins) on board to direct. Woody Harrelson is set to star as the misanthropic outsider of the title, who makes one last-ditch effort to reconnect with his drug-addled ex-wife (Laura Dern).
Clowes also wrote the script for the film, which will be produced by Alexander Payne, Sam Raimi, and Josh Donen. Production is set to commence in Minneapolis next month.
