Nick Frost to 'Look Away'; Wes Bentley and Jaimie Alexander Make 'Broken Vows'



* Nick Frost, Adelaide Clemens (Silent Hill: Revelation), and Hope Davis (Next Stop Wonderland) are set to lead the black comedy, Look Away. Monty Whitebloom and Andy Delaney, aka the directing duo known as BigTV!, are helming this one which has a pretty sweet premise. Clemens plays "a young woman suffering from so-called “selective blindness” that leaves her unable to see her own mother (Davis). In search of a cure, she sees a therapist (Frost), who’s in love with her and, having Asperger’s, is unable to empathize." Kind of sounds like a variation on Lynn Shelton's Touchy Feely. [Deadline]

* Wes Bentley (The Hunger Games) and Thor: The Dark World's Jaimie Alexander are set to make Broken Vows in the upcoming psychological thriller from debut director, Bram Coppens. Bentley plays a troubled man who goes into psychotic rage after being rejected by a woman (Alexander) he tries to seduce. [THR]
