Hugh Jackman, Rooney Mara to Star in Indie Drama ‘Collateral Beauty’

Alfonso Gomez-Rejon (“Me and Earl and the Dying Girl”) is attached to direct from a script by Allan Loeb

Hugh Jackman and Rooney Mara are attached to star in the indie drama “Collateral Beauty,” which Alfonso Gomez-Rejon will direct from a script by Allan Loeb, an individual familiar with the project has told TheWrap.

Anonymous Content’s Michael Sugar and Bard Dorros are producing the film, which follows a New York advertising executive who suffers a tragedy and finds his life slipping into a deep, dark depression.

WME will shop the red-hot package to studios and indie financiers, as the agency represents Jackman, Mara and Gomez-Rejon, who is coming off the Sundance sensation “Me and Earl and the Dying Girl.”
