Election (1999) Official Trailer #1 – Reese Witherspoon Movie HD
Alexander Payne touched down at the Sarajevo Film Festival on Sunday, where he shed some light on his next project: a Western that will reunite the writer-director with The Holdovers scribe David Hemingson.
During a masterclass at the Bosnian Cultural Center, Payne, whose last project The Holdovers earned five Oscar nominations, told the audience that he wanted to explore other genres than the films he has made so far.
"The genre I've always wanted to do is a Western," Payne said. "So, while Jim [Taylor] and I are now talking about doing a sequel to Election , with another writer – the guy who wrote The Holdovers [David Hemingson], we've been thinking about doing a Western for years."
