Bradley Cooper is reportedly playing the role of a Hollywood director, while Cooper Hoffman is a high school child actor, and the film revolves around an encounter between the two characters.
This project will also be the film debut for Alana Haim, who is best-known for her hugely successful pop band with her two sisters, HAIM, and Cooper Hoffman. Cooper Hoffman is also new to the film world, but has acting skills in his genes – his father is the late Philip Seymour Hoffman.
