Woody Harrelson (“True Detective”, Zombieland) and Owen Wilson (Anaconda) have been cast as leads in the thriller Lips Like Sugar, directed by Grammy-winner Brantley Gutierrez and written by Anthony Tambakis.
Production is set to begin later this year on the film, which is set during the ’84 Olympic Games.
The pic, says the presser, is a neon-soaked, coming-of-age thriller set against the gritty backdrop of the punk and skate worlds of West Los Angeles. As the new friendship of two teenage girls from different walks of life unfolds and city officials focus on the Olympics, a pair of former detectives’ (Woody Harrelson and Owen Wilson) lives become intertwined when one of the young girls goes missing.
