In a major casting announcement, it has been revealed that Hollywood icons Faye Dunaway, Harvey Keitel, and Andrew McCarthy are set to star in the upcoming film “Fate.” This suspenseful supernatural romance is poised to make waves in the industry as it gears up for international sales through Highland Film Group at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival.
Directed by Jonathan Baker, who also serves as producer, “Fate” has been in development for five years and is set to commence production in Vancouver this month. While details about the plot remain tightly under wraps, the film’s primary setting, the fictional Vista hotel, is rumored to draw inspiration from the renowned Los Angeles movie theater of the same name, famously refurbished by filmmaker Quentin Tarantino in 2022.
Faye Dunaway, celebrated for her unforgettable performances in classics like “Bonnie & Clyde” and “Chinatown,” joins the cast after collaborating with Baker on his debut feature, “Inconceivable,” in 2017. Meanwhile, Harvey Keitel, known for his roles in cinematic gems like “Reservoir Dogs” and “Pulp Fiction,” can currently be seen in the series “The Tattooist of Auschwitz.”
Andrew McCarthy, best known for his roles in beloved films such as “Pretty in Pink” and “Weekend at Bernie’s,” brings his talent to “Fate” following a career that has spanned both acting and directing, with recent projects including episodes of “The Blacklist” and “Good Girls,” as well as the upcoming documentary “Brats.”
The involvement of these esteemed actors has generated significant buzz surrounding “Fate,” with director Jonathan Baker expressing confidence that the film will leave a lasting impression as a standout love story. As anticipation builds, all eyes will be on the Cannes Film Festival for updates and, eventually, the world premiere of Faye Dunaway’s HBO documentary, providing insight into her illustrious career.
