wishyouwould:

This is pretty small news, but I did find out that they are going to be doing the score/music for Imogene this month, so it looks like the film is still in the post-production stage. I have no idea what that might mean for a potential release date, but hey, it’s something!

Omg lol the description is old and I thought I recognized the poster, right?

Yep, nothing is new in that article, in fact, if you click on the sourced article (which was recycled to begin with)…it was posted 4 months ago.

If anything new HAS happened in the Imogene world (posted March 29th, 2012):

Rob Simonsen has been hired to score the upcoming indie comedy Imogene.

No release date has been announced yet for Imogene, but the film is expected to come out later this year.

PS: I DO follow news about Imogene, I just don’t know if I should post it or not.

Darren Criss sings a lot on Glee and gives impromptu performances on promenades and at benefits — but are you ready for him to sing Backstreet Boys on the big screen? Well, it’s definitely happening, Imogene co-director Shari Springer Berman told Vulture. Criss, who plays Kristen Wiig’s much younger love interest in the movie, will act as a sorta-kinda-Jersey guy “in a nineties impersonation band,” Berman said. “I made him work really hard.” Berman was one of many guests, including Alan Cumming and Susan Sarandon, at the Darby in New York last night, where Criss was being feted by the Peggy Siegal Company and Calvin Klein Collection for his three-week stint on Broadway. (He’s replaced Daniel Radcliffe as the lead in How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying; later this month, Nick Jonas will take on the role.) We spoke with Criss — who performed five songs at the intimate event, including his piano-ballad rendition of “Teenage Dream” — about the challenges of Broadway, Glee fans getting backstage, and acting opposite Kristen Wiig.

It’s been about a week since you’ve been on Broadway.
I know, yes. It’s been insane.

So what have you learned?
Well, I’ve learned that Daniel Radcliffe is a freaking superhero. You know, I know exactly what I signed up for … I’m very fortunate that it was a three-week run, and there’s the pro and cons: The pro is that you’re in and you’re out. But the con is also, oh, bummer, by the time you’re at three weeks you’ve gotten really in the swing of things, you have to leave. It’s kind of bittersweet. But because I know that’s the amount of time I’m doing it, I’ve kind of exerted my energy in sort of … what’s the word I’m looking for? Accordingly. I’ve been exerting energy accordingly, whereas Dan was doing it for a better half of a year, so I don’t know how he paced himself, because I would have just puttered out, man. [Laughs.]

“ When Imogene (Kristen Wiig), a formerly successful playwright, is dumped by her social-climbing New York boyfriend, she fakes suicide to get his attention – but ends up being forced into her gambling-addict mother Zelda’s (Annette Bening) custody. Back at Zelda’s house in Atlantic City, Imogene flies headfirst into a mountain of dysfunction, learning that her mother has rented out her room to a seemingly lunkheaded twenty-something, Lee (Darren Criss), and that her dead father may actually be alive. 

Further complicating things, her mother is now dating a suspicious CIA agent, The Bousche (Matt Dillon), and her younger brother Ralph is obsessed with crabs (the sea kind) and has built a human shell to protect himself from the world. A desperate Imogine finally convinces Lee to drive her and Ralph to find their father, setting in motion a road trip during which Imogene realizes the life (and friends) she had in New York may have seemed better in hindsight. ”
