Winona Ryder, Robert Downey Jr., Woody Harrelson and Rory Cochran will join Keanu Reeves in A Scanner Darkly, the Warner Independent Pictures movie based on a Philip K. Dick novel, Variety reported. Richard Linklater will direct and wrote the adaptation.
Linklater will shoot the actors in scenes that will later be turned into animation, much as he did with Waking Life, the trade paper reported.
Section 8 partners George Clooney and Steven Soderbergh are producing, along with Jonah Smith and Palmer West, whose company Thousand Words is co-financing the film with WIP, the trade paper reported. Tommy Pallotta and Anne Walker McBay are also producing. Bob Sabiston is animation director, a job he held on Waking Life.
Reeves plays an undercover drug officer in the future who becomes addicted and develops a split personality.

You can’t stay mad at Winona, she’s a little pixie woman :P
