Many names have been in the toss-up for the supporting role in David O. Russell’s upcoming project The Silver Linings Playbook. They include Rachel McAdams, Blake Lively, Anne Hathaway and Andrea Riseborough.
Based on the novel by Matthew Quick, the movie stars Mark Wahlberg as Pat Peoples, a former high school teacher who is released from an institution after spending four years being treated for depression. He is taken into the care of his mother. During this time, he tries to win back his ex-wife but suddenly becomes involved with his offbeat neighbor (the role Lawrence will play).
Production for The Silver Linings Playbook is scheduled to begin this fall.
