The NYT reports that the Pulitzer Prize winning novel The Road by Cormac McCarthy is being made into a film.
The film will star Viggo Mortensen and Kodi Smit-McPhee as the father and son team.
John Hillcoat is the director. Oh, and it can’t hurt that Charlize Theron also stars in it, as the man’s wife.
The article notes that filming began in February and was shot near Pittsburgh “because it’s one of the many states that give tax breaks and rebates to film companies and, not incidentally, because it offered such a pleasing array of post-apocalyptic scenery: deserted coalfields, run-down parts of Pittsburgh, windswept dunes,” Nick Wechsler, who is one of the producers said.
