The project is directed by Jason Reitman (JUNO, YOUNG ADLOT, UP IN THE AIR.) and will be cast by Chrystie Street Casting. The movie will shoot in Massachusetts begining early in the summer of 2012.

Breakdown of Roles:

HENRY – 13 Years old (submit 10-14yrs), Caucasian Male – Henry is a true innocent. He has taken over the role of caretaker and protector to his fragile, reclusive mother Adele. He is an observant boy who understands his mother’s loneliness, but is too young to understand why he cannot entirely fill it. When a new man enters the picture, the friend-less Henry is both exhilarated by the relationship and threatened by the prospect that he is no longer needed by his mother. LEAD
ELEANOR – 14yrs, (submit 10-14 yrs) Caucasian. She is a skinny girl, a product of a broken home, she is newly moved from a big city to live with her father and already bored with the small town entertainments. An intelligent girl, Eleanor learned how to get what she wants with wit, calculations and her newly developed sexual awareness. To Henry she is the mysterious hot girl who seems to know everything about the world that he doesn’t. LEAD

    Hi my name is sammi!! I’m 13 and live in a suburb of Boston
    I would really live to audition for Eleanor
    I’m 5’4 and told to be skinny.
    I have long brown hair, olive skin, and brown/green eyes.
    Although my legs, arms and body are skinny, I am slightly busty (32b).
    I love acting and think this role would be perfect for me because I can relate to the character which would help make everything more realistic!
    My parents ended their relationship in a very bad state and have been moving all over for years. I’m attracted to Eleanor’s character.

    Hi, my name is Grecia Gonzales,14 and I am 5’2 and have dark brown Hair, light skin, light brown eyes. Also Hispanic, I have clear English and spanish not much of an accent. I saw this role and I feel like I have what It takes. I’m a hard worker love to act also when it comes to business I don’t play around until the job is done correctly. I stay focused at all times. I love drama, comedy and romance movies and always wanted to be in one especially like this one, I live in Kansas so it’s really difficult to find auditions for anything here so I have to submit myself to different things, I have a serious side but then again I am 14 and just an Average teen with a normal teen life and attitude. But when it comes to business I tend to change into a serious worker. If you have any questions feel free to contact me. Thank you for your time.

    Hi, I’m Emily.
    I read the part for Eleanor, and I think it sounds great! If there is any way I could see the script, I would love that a lot. I am 14 and look my age. I am pretty mature also. I am fairly skinny and fit the description of Eleanor. Is there any news on where they are casting yet? Any information would be great! This sounds like an amazing opportunity. Thanks!
