Steven Spielberg chose Paul Dano to play a character inspired by his father, Arnold Spielberg, in his next film.

The actor thus joins a cast already composed of Michelle Williams, who will play the director's mother, and Seth Rogen who will play the role of his favorite uncle.

Steven Spielberg co-wrote this autobiographical film looking back on his childhood in Arizona with Tony Kushner and filming is set to begin this summer for a 2022 release according to Deadline.

A faultless

2022 will therefore be a good year for Paul Dano who will also appear as The Mystery Man in

The Batman

.

The 36-year-old actor was revealed in

Little Miss Sunshine

in 2006 before gaining unanimous support in

There Will Be Blood

the following year.

Paul Dano then went on to roles as varied as they were demanding and his incarnation of Brian Wilson, the leader of the Beach Boys, in

Love & Mercy

had even earned him a nomination for the Golden Globes in 2016.
