Me and Orson Welles, The Official U.S. Tumblog

Who We Are

The official U.S. tumblog for the upcoming Richard Linklater film "Me and Orson Welles."

Set in 1930's New York City, a young aspiring actor (Zac Efron) is thrown into the middle of Orson Welles' Mercury Theatre Company on the eve of the opening of Welles' historic staging of Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar".

Throughout the exciting and maddening rehearsal process, Efron finds romance with a wordly older woman (Claire Danes), becomes immersed in a creative experience few are afforded, and learns the downside of crossing the imperious, brilliant Orson Welles (newcomer Christian McKay).

"What about Orson Welles is going to attract a young audience?’ but what I’m hoping is that the audience that does come is able to enjoy this experience with such an iconic guy. Hopefully, it’ll spark their interest and they’ll be able to learn more and go and find out about Welles and his amazing, very interesting roller coaster career."
