            Alex Ross Perry has become one of the most consistent indie filmmakers currently and his new film has lined up quite the cast. According to The Playlist, Perry’s next film, “Her Smell” will reunite him with Elisabeth Moss, who starred in “Listen Up Philip” and “Queen of Earth” which he also directed.

            In the film, Moss plays an aging punk rock singer named Becky who pushes her friends, family and bandmates to the limit as she battles sobriety and attempts to find that creative spark that led to her band’s success. The report also states that Cara Delevingne, Dan Stevens, Eric Stoltz, Virginia Madsen, Amber Heard and Ashley Benson will also star.

            Moss is best known for her Emmy-winning role on Hulu’s, “The Handmaid’s Tale” but has other intriguing projects on the horizon such as David Lowery’s crime film, “Old Man and the Gun” and the adaptation of the graphic novel, “The Kitchen” with Tiffany Haddish and Melissa McCarthy. Delevingne was seen most recently in Luc Besson’s “Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets” and played Enchantress in “Suicide Squad.” Heard will have her first foray in a comic book film in December as she stars alongside Jason Momoa in “Aquaman.” Dan Stevens stars in FX series, “Legion” and last year played the Beast in the live-action Disney film, “Beauty and the Beast.”

            There’s no word yet on a release date for “Her Smell.” How do you guys feel about this project? Are you excited for another collaboration with Moss and Perry?
