‘
New York, I Love You‘ is a collection of 12 short films that will be a cinematic love letter to the Big Apple. The movie is a follow-up of sorts to last years Paris, je t'aime, which chronicled a series of romantic trysts in the city of love.
Natalie Portman and
Scarlett Johansson are making their directorial debuts and helming their own segments. Until we know that Portman also plays a Jewish bride.
Shia LeBeouf joins
Julie Christie and
John Hurt in a segment scripted by the late
Anthony Minghella, which he was also set to direct until his death. He will be replaced by
Shekhar Kapur.
Hayden Christensen, Rachel Bilson, Chris Cooper, Anton Yelchin, Ethan Hawke and
Kevin Bacon will take acting roles, whilst X-Men 3 helmer
Brett Ratner will direct a segment.
