Deadline has picked off most of the casting of Woody Allen’s upcoming film already, but the Woodman has finalized the ensemble of the film he will shoot in San Francisco. The surprise is the additions of standup comedians Louis C.K. and especially Andrew Dice Clay. Dice had an arc of episodes on Entourage, but this is a big deal for him. Here’s the announcement.
NEW YORK (June 4, 2012) – Woody Allen announced today the cast of his latest untitled film. Starring, in alphabetical order, are Alec Baldwin, Cate Blanchett, Louis C.K., Bobby Cannavale, Andrew Dice Clay, Michael Emerson, Sally Hawkins and Peter Sarsgaard. Co-stars include Max Casella and Alden Ehrenreich. It is a Gravier Productions film produced by Allen’s long time producers, Letty Aronson and Stephen Tenenbaum.
The new film will be shot in New York and San Francisco this summer. This marks Allen’s second time directing in San Francisco — his directorial debut, 1969’s TAKE THE MONEY AND RUN, was also set there.
Allen recently won an Academy Award® for Best Original Screenplay for MIDNIGHT IN PARIS. His upcoming film, TO ROME WITH LOVE, will be released on June 22 by Sony Pictures Classics.

No Bradley Cooper? Is this correct?
If anyone had called “Dice cast on Woody Allen movie,” step forward. You won the jackpot.
it’s not one of his “oh wow” casts in star power but it really is an eclectic and awesome grouping
who would have thought andrew dice clay and cate blanchett would be in a movie together?
hope this one is effed up fun
dman,
Who would’ve thought Andrew Dice clay and ANYONE would be in a movie together?
good point
So Bradley Cooper dropped out?
i don’t think that was ever confirmed… it was a rumor that everyone latched onto and assumed was true like the Copenhagen rumor
He’s up to something with this casting and it sounds really interesting. On the Dice front remember Nick Apollo Forte?
the woodman? come on, no one has ever called him that in the history of time…
I hope this movie will bring Ms. Sally Hawkins her Oscar. The woman already should have won one for HGL.
Andrew Dice Clay? I don’t get the joke
Woody’s got to be playing us!
Dice is like Howie Mandell- an apalling comic who can actually be good in a “straight” role (Dice on CRIME STORY, Mandel on ST. ELSEWHERE). With Woody calling the shots, he’ll be fine.
Dice was great on “Crime Story”. I’m an old fan of his so I’m happy for him. This is great news.
Wha–??
What’s Woody up to?
Wait–wait. Let me check the calendar. No–it’s not April 1st…
Maybe Dice isn’t a major player. Maybe he’s a parking lot attendant hovering in the background. CANT be major. CAN IT?
Woody, what ARE you up to??
Dice is actually more like a neurotic Woody Allen character in real life than his tough guy persona would have you believe. I think he’ll do fine in Woody’s world.
I agree with you. In interviews he reminds me of Rodney Dangerfield, except Clay is funny in ways he doesn’t seem to realize. Neurotic, for sure.
Does this sound like CELEBRITY?
If Louis CK is playing the neurotic main character who is basically just Woody Allen, then this is a stroke of genius.
The spirit of CK’s stand-up and show are perfectly matched to the temperament of Woody Allen’s writing.
Is god playing a game with my life by putting my 2 favorite comedians in a single film? Fuck ya! Louis screwy and the Dice Man!
Im very happy for andrew dice clay is a genis. The none believers should be fuck in the anal love hole till they bleed. Then get a rat or rats to eat there anal love hole out. He the teacher of are world of life . Like me myron the moron on you tube or loon,show. Com my drean one day is to open for him . Woody allen your a genis to and for picking him.
