Emmy Rossum has joined to the cast of director George C. Wolfe's You're Not You. She'll star opposite the recently cast Hilary Swank in the adaptation of Michelle Wildgen's novel, officially described as follows: Bec is adrift. It's the summer before her junior year in college. She's sleeping with a married professor, losing interest in her classes, and equivocating about her career. She takes a job caring for Kate, a thirty-six-year-old woman who has been immobilized by ALS.
As it turns out, before the disease Kate was a stylish and commanding woman, an advertising executive and an accomplished chef. Now, as she and Bec spend long days together, Bec begins to absorb Kate's sophistication and her sensuality, cooking for her, sharing her secrets, and gradually beginning to live her own life with a boldness informed by Kate's influence. The more intense her commitment to Kate, the further Bec strays from the complacency of her college life. And when Kate's marriage veers into dangerous territory, Bec will have to choose between the values of her old life and the allure of an entirely new one.
Rossum, who has appeared on the big screen in films like Dragonball: Evolution and The Day After Tomorrow, is best known for her role on Showtime's "Shameless". She'll also soon be headlining Beautiful Creatures, set for release on February 13, 2013.
Swank is producing You're Not You through her 2S banner with co-founder Molly Smith along with Denise Di Novi and Alison Greenspan. Filming is expected to start in Los Angeles in November.
