Brian Cox is following up Succession, easily one of the best shows on television, by playing a pigeon racer in Paramount+’s Little Wing. The coming-of-age film will also star Yellowstone‘s Kelly Reilly.
Brooklynn Prince (Cocaine Bear) is set to play a teen who becomes interested in pigeon racing, and Che Tafari (Me Time) stars as her friend.
Filming’s expected to get underway in Portland this month. Oscar and DGA Awards nominee John Gatins (Flight) wrote the screenplay based on Susan Orlean’s New Yorker article. Three-time DGA Awards nominee Dean Israelite (Are You Afraid of the Dark?, The Astronauts) is on board to direct.
Israelite, Brian Cox, Karen Rosenfelt, Donald De Line, Susan Orlean, Don Dunn, and Liz Brandenburg are executive producing. Gatins and Naomi Despres will serve as producers.
Paramount+ offered this description of the project: “Little Wing follows Kaitlyn (Prince), a 13-year-old girl who, reeling from her parents’ divorce and the pending loss of her home, is drawn into the world of pigeon racing. She hopes to solve her family’s financial woes by stealing a valuable bird but instead forms a bond with the owner who cultivates her love of the sport.”
