Susan Sarandon y Kathy Bates se unen al elenco


Susan Sarandon and Kathy Bates Board 'Mommy' Director's First English-Language Project (Exclusive)

“Susan Sarandon’s role of the mother is tricky for me because it feels very real,” explains Dolan. “The rapport my mom has with my life [since my profile has risen] -- and of course I’m not as famous as the character of Donovan -- is different now. I think all people can relate to this because whenever you walk out of the path that’s been traced for you, people from your old life find it a little menacing, because it questions their own worth.

In describing Bates’ role, Dolan says the American Horror star will “epitomize the very efficient, brash, fast-moving, bitchy manager.” In meeting with Bates, Dolan says he was instantly comforted that she embraced the cliches of her Ari Gold-like role.
