Zoe Kazan has been cast in the upcoming comedy film The Pretty One, according to Deadline.com. The Robin Schorr project, which is written and directed by Jenee LaMarque, co-stars New Girl's Jake Johnson.
The Pretty One tells the story of an awkward but loveable young woman who is mistaken for her dead “perfect” identical twin. She then seizes the chance to masquerade as her sister, but soon falls in love with her twin’s eccentric next door neighbor, leading her to want her own imperfect life back.
Set to star in the upcoming film adaption of Neil LaBute’s Some Girls, Kazan has appeared on Broadway in Come Back, Little Sheba, The Seagull and A Behanding in Spokane. Her off-Broadway credits include The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie, Angels in America and 100 Saints You Should Know. Kazan also wrote the off-Broadway play We Live Here.
