Gia Coppola has assembled an all-star cast for The Last Showgirl with Pamela Anderson, Jamie Lee Curtis, Dave Bautista, Brenda Song, Kiernan Shipka, and Billie Lourd joining the cast of the Kate Gersten-penned film.
Deadline reports that The Last Showgirl will follow a seasoned showgirl who must plan for her future when her show abruptly closes after a 30-year run. As a dancer in her fifties, she struggles with what to do next. As a mother, she strives to repair a strained relationship with her daughter, who often took a backseat to her showgirl family.
Attached as producers are Robert Schwartzman and Natalie Farrey, with Kara Durrett and Jesse Burgum of Pinky Promise to exec produce.
“I’ve always wanted to make a movie in Vegas,” says Coppola. “I’m so proud of our cast and crew, especially Pamela. I can’t wait to share her daring and heartfelt performance!”
Schwartzman adds, “Dream project, dream cast. We couldn’t be more honored and appreciative of the chance to tell an authentic Las Vegas story that pays homage to the iconic Showgirl, told through Gia’s unique sense of style and visual storytelling.”
