Now that’s he’s through dissing Stanley Kubrick‘s “The Shining,” David Cronenberg can get back to finishing up “Maps To The Stars” for a rumored premiere next spring at the Cannes Film Festival. But until then, some new images from the flick have landed online, giving a closer look at his upcoming satire.
Featuring John Cusack, Julianne Moore, Mia Wasikowska, Robert Pattinson, Olivia Williams and Sarah Gadon, the Bruce Wagner penned movie follows a family of Hollywood dynasty who are not quite living the glamorous, care-free life you might expect. Here’s a new synopsis via Shock ‘Til You Drop:
The Weiss family is the archetypical Hollywood dynasty: father Sanford is an analyst and coach, who has made a fortune with his self-help manuals; mother Christina mostly looks after the career of their son Benjie, 13, a child star.

Ghosts, drugs, fire… If anyone is going to blend those together into an intriguing cocktail, it’s Cronenberg. No U.S. distributor or dates yet, but it’s probably a bit early yet for that sort of thing. For now, just let these pics hold you over.
