Joaquin Phoenix to star in gay romance from Carol director Todd Haynes

Joaquin Phoenix and Todd Haynes

Joaquin Phoenix has set his next project – and he's collaborating with director Todd Haynes on a gay romance set in Los Angeles in the '30s. 

"The next film is a feature that’s an original script that I developed with Joaquin Phoenix based on some thoughts and ideas he brought to me," Haynes told IndieWire. "We basically wrote with him as a story writer. Me and Jon Raymond and Joaquin share the story credit. And we hope to be shooting it beginning early next year. It’s a gay love story set in 1930s LA."
