Bob Dylan

"The film also stars Elle Fanning as Sylvie Russo, Monica Barbaro as Joan Baez, Nick Offerman as Alan Lomax and Boyd Holbrook as Johnny Cash alongside Chalamet. Edward Norton took over to play Pete Seeger after Benedict Cumberbatch had to drop out due to production delays. Just last year, Mangold spoke of the film in an episode of the Happy Sad Confused podcast, “It’s a kind of ensemble piece about this moment in time, the early ’60s in New York, and this 17-year-old kid with $16 in his pockets hitchhikes his way to New York to meet Woody Guthrie who is in the hospital and is dying of a nerve disease. He sings Woody a song that he wrote for him and befriends Pete Seeger, who is like a son to Woody, and Pete sets him up with gigs at local clubs and there you meet Joan Baez and all these other people who are part of this world.” There is no official release date for the film just yet."
