Kristen Stewart is set to star opposite her ex-boyfriend Michael Angarano in his road-trip comedy Sacramento.
Stewart, 33, and Angarano, 35, famously dated between 2005 and 2009 and were often spotted out and about together during the former’s early Twilight days.
K-Stew aside, the upcoming flick, which not only stars Angarano but is also directed and co-written by him, packs a stellar cast.
Michael Cera will also star, as will Angarano’s fiancée and the mum of his young son, 35-year-old Maya Erskine.
According to the movie’s synopsis, the plot ‘follows Rickey (Angarano), an energetic and free-spirited young man, and Glenn (Cera), his long-time friend who’s settled into domestic life. On an impromptu road trip from Los Angeles to Sacramento, their past comes into focus and questions their future’.
Stewart plays Rosie, Glenn’s wife, while Erskine has been cast as Rickey’s wife, Tallie.
AJ Mendez, Iman Karam, and Rosalind Chao are also among the cast.
Bee-Hive Production’s Stephen Braun, The Wonder Company’s Eric B. Fleischman and Chris Abernathy, Sam Grey, and Angarano and his co-writer Chris Smith are listed as producers.
Of the project, Angarano told Deadline: ‘We feel grateful and very excited to make a movie like Sacramento. Chris Smith and I started writing this film years ago, after a pilot of ours didn’t get picked up.’
He went on: ‘We’re honoured to be working with this wildly talented cast and crew led by Stephen at Bee-Hive who is not only a great partner, but a true collaborator.
‘It’s already been quite a journey but we’re finally ready to go make a movie.’
Filming is due to begin shortly.
