Alana Haim Joins the Cast of PTA's new Leo DiCaprio Film
Whlie the initial cast for PTA's "mystery project" were announced right away -- Leo DiCaprio, Sean Penn, and Regina Hall -- more cast members are being announced now and one of them is pretty interesting:
Alana Haim, from the sister pop rock group "Haim" . Alana is currently on view as a Taylor Swift bestie(they were shown at one of those NFL games in the box) , but in 2021, PTA took a shot at making a star out of Alana with his sweet, great 70's youth romance "Licorice Pizza."
The other young new star in that movie was Cooper Hoffman, son of the dead-too-soon Philip Seymour Hoffman (a PTA regular). HE has landed a few roles since Licorice Pizza -- he will be playing NBC executive Dick Ebersol in a movie about SNL's first broadcast in 1975.
But Alana was too busy touring with her sisters worldwide in 2022(after COVID had kept them home for two years), opening for Taylor Swift and...evidently...working on a new album with her sisters.
So it looks like Alana Haim's first movie after debuting in a Paul Thomas Anderson movie will be...another Paul Thomas Anderson movie.
Sounds great too me. If it was good enough for Phillip Seymour Hoffman, it should be good enough for Alana Haim.
And us. She DOES have a great personality.
