OMG, I want this to be at Cannes so bad I can't stand it.

I'm not sure when the selection date line is for Cannes but Wenders previously mentioned that he still had at least 6 months of editing to do and that was in October.

Well he needs to hurry up.

Indiewire included the movie onto their "Sundance 2015 Wishlist: 31 Movies We Hope to See in Park City" list:

Quote:

"Every Thing Will Be Fine"
Director: Wim Wenders
Cast: James Franco, Rachel McAdams, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Marie-Josee Croze
Why We Hope It Heads To Park City: It might be asking a bit much to expect Wim Wenders to debut his first 3D narrative film (and follow-up to his incredibly successful 3D documentary "Pina") at Sundance. A Berlin debut a few weeks later seems more likely, but we can dream? The film -- written by Bjørn Olaf Johannessen -- stars, yes, James Franco as a writer who accidentally causes the death of a child while driving and spends the next decade examining the effect of the tragedy on both his own life and on the child's mother (Rachel McAdams). How Wenders uses 3D to tell this kind of story is beyond us, but we're pretty sure he'll find a way.

Even Cannes 2015 might be a stretch so I don' think it's likely we will see it at Sundance, but it's good to know movie news sites like this haven't forgotten the movie. It was reported before that Rachel will play Franco's girlfriend and not the child's mother.

I'm not gonna lie, I think I'd rather her play the child's mother though... But she wasn't on set for very long, so I think that might be wishful thinking.

Interesting mention in an article from THR on Wim Wenders:

Quote:

Wenders, whose documentary Salt of the Earth, on photographer Sebastião Salgado, directed together with Salgado's son Juliano Ribeiro, screened in Cannes. His new, 3D drama, Everything Will Be Fine, starring Rachel McAdams, James Franco and Charlotte Gainsbourgh, is currently in post production and is widely expected to premiere in Berlin next year.

I'm so exciteddd!

WENDERS: I have been working before we started this and in the middle and now I’m back on a fictional film that will come out next year, a family drama called Every Thing Will Be Fine with James Franco, Rachel McAdams and Charlotte Gainsbourg. That needs another half a year. It’s about a writer. It’s been going on for a long time.

I'm not emotionally equipped to handle waiting six more months for this.

Thanks for sharing Wendy! I assume this interview took place around the same time the Indiewire interview which would be it's finished in April/May-ish

New quote from Wim Wenders with an Italian website. Translation (via google translator):

Quote:

He can now talk about his new film, Everything Will Be Fine?
Yes, that's my next film. It is not yet finished. I'll finish the assembly next spring or next summer. There are about eight or nine years ago, was at Sundance festival in Utah, and participated on the jury of a writers workshop. We made a competition and one of the scripts, Bjorn Olaf Johanessen, was eventually awarded. And even earned enough money, $ 200,000. The script at the time was called Nowhere Man (2008, directed by Patrice Toye). I liked both of this story that I ended up being executive producer, seeking to ensure that the film were to be made. The film was shot in Belgium. Was shot in Flemish. At the time told him that if he had another script that send mo. However, much time has passed and in 2009 someone sent me a script and after all was the Everything Will Be Fine. It was only the first version, but I liked it so much as liked Nowhere Man. I ended up buying the film rights and we ended up shooting this winter. If all goes well, the film will be ready in March or April. It has an international cast: James Franco, Charlotte Gainsbourg and Rachel McAdams. More I can not tell.

The story of this man who accidentally kills a child is somehow based on real facts or is pure fiction?
What I know is just fiction.
