Winona Ryder and Joseph Fiennes for The Darwin Awards
By James Wray Oct 11, 2004, 12:33 GMT
Winona Ryder and Joseph Fiennes are set to star in The Darwin Awards, a romantic comedy written and to be directed by Finn Taylor.
David Arquette, Jeffrey Tambor and Tim Blake Nelson will also star, with Alessandro Nivola and Emily Mortimer in cameos.
The title is a reference to a tongue-in-cheek Internet award bestowed upon those who die out of colossal stupidity. The always posthumous honor is designed to recognise deaths so stupid that the ensuing removal of the perpetrator from the gene pool is a positive boost for the species..
Fiennes portrays a forensic detective who pairs with an insurance claims investigator (Ryder) on a road trip to create the profile of a potential Darwin Award winner.
Production on The Darwin Awards is due to begin November 29.
