A lot of projects fell through on Little Miss Sunshine filmmakers Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris in the five years since their film exploded at the Sundance Film Festival but their streak finally came to an end with their next movie, He Loves Me, starting production shortly.
Variety reported that The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn actress Toni Trucks joined He Loves Me; the story of a young novelist struggling with writer’s block who creates his dream girl through his writing.

Trucks joined Paul Dano, who worked with Dayton and Faris on Little Miss Sunshine, Zoe Kazan, Steve Coogan, Annette Bening, Antonio Banderas and Chris Messina.

Trucks was last seen in the independent films N-Secure, What If and Rollers.

Kazan, last seen in the period western Meek’s Cutoff, wrote the script for He Loves Me.

Dayton and Faris reunited with Fox Searchlight for He Loves Me with Albert Berger and Ron Yerxa producing via Bona Fide Productions.
