THE BIG SHOE (Cast News)


  • THE BIG SHOE

Kristen Stewart (Twilight) and Elizabeth Banks (The Hunger Games) have joined The Big Shoe, Steven Shainberg’s newest erotic comedy that combines foot fashion and fetishism.  The picture already stars Jim Sturgess (Cloud Atlas) in the lead role of a gifted shoe designer pressured into mass-producing his designs as knock-offs.

The family of Sturgess’ character hires a psychotherapist (Banks) to work with the shoe designer.  Stewart will play Sturgess’ muse, Delphi.  Although Susan Sarandon was previously mentioned as being involved with the picture, there is no mention of her in this most recent report.  Co-written by Shainberg and Mickey Birnbaum, The Big Shoe had previously attracted attention from Joaquin Phoenix and Mia Wasikowska, but finally seems to be getting on its feet with the latest cast additions.

Stewart has put The Twilight Saga behind her, but will return for another franchise in the sequel to Snow White and the Huntsman.  Banks has franchise duties of her own with The Hunger Games: Catching Fire coming out this November.  Banks is currently filming Steven Brill’s Walk of Shame with James Marsden and will do voice acting for Phil Lord and Chris Miller’s Lego: The Piece of Resistance along with Chris Pratt, Will Ferrell, Liam Neeson and Will Arnett.
