Riley Keough, Bob Odenkirk and Danny Ramirez will star in a live reading of the Oscar-nominated drama “Anatomy of a Fall,” as will Jay Ellis, Kate Berlant, Quincy Isaiah and Olivia Wilde.
Keough (“Daisy Jones & the Six”) takes on the lead role of Sandra, which earned Sandra Hüller an Oscar nomination for best actress at the upcoming Academy Awards.
In addition to the human cast, the movie’s dog Messi will reprise his role as Snoop.
The event, taking place Feb. 14 at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts in Beverly Hills, is presented by Neon and Film Independent. The film’s director Justine Triet will co-direct with Franklin Leonard of The Black List.
“My partner Arthur and I wrote this script while in quarantine together,” Triet said in a statement on Saturday. “What better way to spend Valentine’s Day than with this caliber of talent exploring relationships, love and truth? We are so excited at the opportunity to collaborate with Film Independent.”
In addition to best actress, “Anatomy of a Fall’s” Oscar noms also include best original screenplay, best director and best picture.
The film has won the Palme d’Or, two Golden Globe Awards – including best screenplay – and two Gotham Awards. “Anatomy of a Fall” has been highly recognized by more than 25 national critics groups, in addition to garnering nominations from the Producers Guild of America and American Cinema Editors.
Past live readings at the Wallis have included “Love Actually,” “Back to the Future,” “Jennifer’s Body” and “Triangle of Sadness.”
