Justin Long just appeared in the Sundance Film Festival comedy For A Good Time Call, about two roommates who start a phone sex line, and the Park City vibe must have inspired him to jump-start his own indie comedy.
Variety reported today that Long, best known as the “Mac Guy” opposite comic John Hodgman as “PC” in numerous Apple commercials, prepared to produce the romantic comedy A CASE OF YOU.
Long also co-wrote the script and signed on to play the lead in A Case of You, about a writer who exaggerates about himself in an online profile and has to match up to his lies after he falls for his online date.
Evan Rachel Wood signed on to play the dream date and Peter Dinklage of Game of Thrones joined in a supporting role.
Kat Coiro boarded the film as director with Keir O’Donnell and Long’s brother Christian Long co-writing the script.
Up next for Long are the crime drama Chronicle with Ryan Phillippe and Milla Jovovich and Movie 43, a series of comic shorts.
Justin Long fans, are you excited about him producing his own movies?
