Awesome mid-February news:
Werner Herzog is making a new film, My Son, My Son, What Have Ye Done (wicked, nice title). David Lynch is producing (extra wicked). It's apparently a horror film (a Herzog horror? Extra extra wicked) loosely based on a true story about a San Diego man who acts out a Sophocles play in his mind and kills his mother with a sword, shot on DV (sounds interesting).
The cast confirmed: Michael Shannon (one of today's best), Chloë Sevigny, Michael Peña, Bill Cobbs (all pretty nifty), Willem Dafoe (always watchable), Brad Dourif, Udo Kier (now this is sounding fuckmazing) and... and Grace Zabriskie (awesome x awesomefuckmazing). Shannon is playing the son; Zabriskie, the mother.
Nice.
