We just saw some exciting news about a new indie comedy called ‘August’. And get this – it’s got some seriously big names attached!

Lauren Graham, you know, from ‘Gilmore Girls’, and the legendary Broadway star Patti LuPone are both going to be in it. How cool is that? They’ll be acting alongside Dan Bucatinsky, who we also know from ‘The Comeback’.

This movie is actually a big moment for Nick Borenstein. He’s not just acting in ‘August’, he’s also directing it and wrote the script! It’s his first feature film in all three roles.

Right now, they’re filming in New York City. The story sounds really interesting. It’s about a young, gay guy living in the city, and it starts after something sad happens.

We’re already picturing the whole vibe of this movie. Think of those classic New York independent films – maybe a bit quirky, with sharp dialogue and a cool, urban aesthetic. We can’t wait to see how it all comes together visually.

Our Take

We are SO here for this! Lauren Graham and Patti LuPone together? That’s a dream team. This movie sounds like it could be really special, and we’re excited to see Nick Borenstein shine in his directorial debut. It’s always fun to see established actors take on new projects, and with this cast, ‘August’ is already on our must-watch list.
