Edmund Donovan Joins Willem Dafoe & Greta Lee In Kent Jones’ ‘Late Fame’


'Late Fame' has tapped Edmund Donovan to star opposite Willem Dafoe and Greta Lee, with Kent Jones directing, as previously announced.

Written by May December ‘s Samy Burch, Late Fame is a portrait of Ed Saxberger (Dafoe), a postal worker who wrote and published poetry such a long time ago that he’s forgotten he ever was a poet. They reject technology — or at least they do in theory, and loudly… Among them is the mercurial Gloria (Lee), a talented and borderline-desperate theatre actress who walks an emotional tightrope and toys with the affections of her “boys.” She is more than ready to be admired by this legendary figure from out of a gritty New York golden age. Most recently, Donovan has been seen starring in Your Monster, the romantic horror-comedy from Caroline Lindy, which earned the Audience Favourite Award at Sundance London and hit theaters in October of last year.
