FATHERS AND DAUGHTERS, a Voltage Pictures presentation is a 2015 American-Italian emotional drama film directed by Gabriele Muccino (“Pursuit of Happiness”). Starring RUSSELL CROWE and AMANDA SEYFRIED, it is based on a 2012 script written by Brad Desch.
The story follows a father and daughter living 25 years apart in New York City. Russell Crowe will portray a famous novelist and widower struggling with mental illness as he tries to raise his 5-year-old daughter. Amanda Seyfried will portray the now-grown daughter in present-day Manhattan as she battles the aftermath of her troubled childhood.
Aaron Paul is playing Amanda Seyfried’s love interest, and the role should come naturally given that he played a comparable part on HBO’s “Big Love.” Fathers And Daughters will be in the cinemas on January 27, 2016 and released by OctoArts Films International.
