Los Angeles: Owen Wilson is attached to star in the new Woody Allen movie that will shoot this summer.As with all the writer-director`s film work, Allen is keeping the untitled feature`s story line and characters hush-hush, and it`s not clear how big Wilson`s role is.
In November, Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, France`s first lady, mentioned that Allen had seduced her into taking a role in the film, though the writer-director`s camp would not confirm. Wilson`s recent pictures include "Marley and Me" and Wes Anderson`s animated "Fantastic Mr. Fox." The actor also voiced the title role in the Fox comedy "Marmaduke," which hits theaters in June. Allen`s next film, "You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger," stars Antonio Banderas, Josh Brolin, Anthony Hopkins, Naomi Watts, Gemma Jones, Freida Pinto and Lucy Punch. He was last in theaters with 2009`s "Whatever Works," starring Larry David. Bureau Report
