Paul Dano (‘Love & Mercy’), Daniel Radcliffe (‘Horns’), and Mary Elizabeth Winstead (‘Alex of Venice’) have all closed deals to star in ‘Swiss Army Knife,’ the feature directorial debut of music video and short film directors Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, also known as “The Daniels.”
Deadline hears that the film centres on “a hopeless man stranded in the wilderness who befriends a dead body and together they go on a surreal journey to get home.”
Filming kicks off next month with TadMor Entertainment Group and Cold Iron Pictures co-financing and producing.
The Daniels are best known for work on the music videos for The Shins track ‘Simple Song,’ DJ Snake and Lil Jon’s ‘Turn Down For What,’ and the directing duo’s short film ‘Interesting Ball.’
