Kevin Kline is in talks to join Tom Hanks and son Colin Hanks in
The Great Buck Howard, says Variety.
Kline is negotiating to play a renowned illusionist whose career is on the wane. Colin Hanks will play a kid fresh out of school who becomes the magic man's assistant. In a smaller role, Tom Hanks plays Buck's father, who is not at all enthused about his son's career choice.
The project will be directed by Sean McGinly, and is scheduled to begin production in July in New York.
