Recently seen in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, and the inventive concert movie Metallica: Through The Never, Dane DeHaan has recently signed on for the lead role in the upcoming drama Ziggy, and will star opposite The Social Network’s Rooney Mara.
Written, and due to be directed, by Diesel Schwarze (a TV ad director and relative unknown, who worked for Baz Luhrmann on Moulin Rouge), Ziggy will follow a hunchback escape artist who arrives in New York in the 1920’s, and soon begins to fall in love with the fiancée (Mara) of a powerful media mogul.
