David Cronenberg and More Ready to Display Some Body Art David Cronenberg is a multifaceted talent who can pretty much do it all (except get Fox to let him handle a new version of The Fly; lord knows why), and now he’s ready to return to the opposite side of the camera as an actor!

According to Variety Cosmopolis director David Cronenberg, novelist Don DeLillo, and producer Paolo Branco are uniting on another film, Body Art to be helmed by Italy’s Luca Guadagnino (I Am Love). Cronenberg will co-star alongside Isabelle Huppert and Denis Lavant in the adapation of DeLillo’s The Body Artist.

Written by Guadagnino, Body Art stars Huppert as a woman who, grieving after her husband’s death, discovers that a stranger is living in her upstairs room. Shooting is scheduled for summer 2013.
