Kunis, Affleck, Franco Sign On for Romantic Drama THIRD PERSON

Variety reports that Mila Kunis, Casey Affleck and James Franco have signed on to star in Paul Haggis' upcoming film THIRD PERSON. The actors join previously announced cast members Liam Neeson and Olivia Wilde in the romantic drama. 

According to the official synopsis, the film centers on "three story lines, three love stories, three relationships in three different cities that combine in a very odd way: New York, Paris and Rome."

Explains director Haggis, "The three stories look at the beginning, middle and end of a relationship. The couple in Italy represents the beginning, Paris the middle and New York the end." Affleck will be featured in the film's Italian section, Neeson and Wilde will portray writers in the Paris section, and Franco and Kunis play an estranged couple in New York.

Shooting on the drama is scheduled to begin on October 17 in Rome.
