Agnes Bruckner is Officially Breaking the Girl

By Uncle Creepy
November 29th, 2011

We haven't reported on Breaking the Girl for a while now, but the film is finished and the troubled waters are now calm. In terms of casting the flick has been a bit of a revolving door. Read on to play catch-up with us!

First Brit Marling dropped out of the project, and according to Myriad Pictures Agnes Bruckner (pictured right; Blood and Chocolate, "24", The Woods, Vacancy 2) was brought in to co-star alongside Madeline Zima ("Californication"). Zima signed to the project because its initial leads, Amanda Crew and Adrianne Palicki, bowed out. Thankfully the door is closed, and the flick is in the can.

Jamie Babbit directs from a script by Mark Distefano and Guinevere Turner (American Psycho).

Synopsis:
Sara is an ambitious, beautiful twenty-year-old working her way through her sophomore year at Browning College. Alex, her gorgeous and privileged classmate, takes Sara under her wing. As the two girls become closer, they become friends with benefits. Alex and Sara commiserate over their respective enemies, and Alex half-jokingly suggests that they should kill off each other's nemeses. Sara shrugs off the suggestion as a morbid joke...until someone turns up dead.

Oh, Bollywood. We love you so. No matter what's going on, you can find a way to break into an impromptu and highly energetic dance routine. You also have the strange ability to make us crave chicken tikka masala and naan bread, but that's an entirely different story.
