The cast of Walter Salles’ adaptation of the classic Jack Kerouac novel "On the Road" is rounding out nicely, as Viggo Mortensen and Amy Adams have signed on to join stars Kirsten Dunst, Kristen Stewart, Sam Riley, and Garrett Hedlund. Mortensen will assume the role of Old Bull Lee (a William S. Burroughs surrogate), while Adams will play his junkie wife, Jane. According to Deadline, Adams and Mortensen will shoot their scenes later this month.
Jose Rivera has scripted the adaptation, which revolves around a series of cross country trips taken by writer Sal Paradise (Riley)."

A On the Road big screen adaptation was in talks since some years ago, but it finally seems to becoming true. It's sounds a kind of an epic Into the Wild, which sounds like a Oscar-kind-of-movie and this cast turn it into something brighter.
Title: "On the Road" is finding the right road (finally!)
