EXCLUSIVE: Owen Wilson, Michaela Watkins, Wendi McLendon-Covey, Ciara Renée, Lusia Strus, and Stephen Root have signed on to star in Paint, an indie film from director Brit McAdams. Sam Maydew of Silver Lining Entertainment is producing the project, which is currently shooting in upstate New York.

McAdams also penned the screenplay, which landed on The Blacklist in 2010. The plot follows Carl Nargle, who has hosted Vermont’s #1 painting show for the past 27 years with his signature whisper keeping viewers from Pittsfield to St. Albans breathlessly hanging on his every stroke until the station hires a younger, better painter who steals everything and everyone Carl loves.
