America -

An adaptation of Susan Sontag's novel In America.

In 1876 a group of Poles led by Maryna Zalezowska (Isabelle Huppert), Poland's greatest actress, emigrate to the United States and travel to California to found a "utopian commune." When the commune fails, Maryna stays, learns English, and—as Marina Zalenska—forges a new, even more triumphant career on the American stage, becoming a diva on par with Sara Bernhardt.

Hopper will play a manager who revives the actress' career. Helen Mirren has also been cast with Harvey Keitel still in talks.
