Emmy Award winning writer/producer Peter Tolan will make his feature directorial debut with Finding Amanda.
Production Weekly reports that Matthew Broderick is set to headline the Tolan-penned pic.
Broderick plays a TV producer currently trying to reconstruct his dismal career in the film. A recovering alcoholic and drug addict, he's famous for throwing up at the Emmys and losing $150,000 at the track in one day.
He sent by his wife on a mission to Las Vegas to convince their young niece Amanda, who is now making her living as a stripper and hooker, to enter rehab. But once in Vegas, Broderick's uncontrollable old compulsions reassert themselves with a vengeance.
Principal photography is tentatively slated for early January in Los Angeles and Las Vegas.
