Talked to Knoxville a few times in the past, he's a very funny guy...

The Swedish media catch the all Swede presence in SMALL APARTMENTS from director Jonas Akerlund to Peter Stormare and of course Dolph Lundgren. They also mention the possible screening at the next Sundance festival, 2012.

Dolph Lundgren i Åkerlund-film



STOCKHOLM. Jonas Åkerlund gör en ny film och på rollistan står både Dolph Lundgren och Peter Stormare. Filmen är en independentkomedi som går under titeln "Small apartments", skriver Aftonbladet.
Filmen handlar om en klumpig figur som råkar ha ihjäl sin vicevärd och gör allt för att gömma kroppen. I övriga roller ses bland andra James Caan, som tidigare varit med i "Gudfadern"-filmerna och Amanda Plummer från "Pulp fiction". Inspelningen avslutades i april och premiären är planerad till Sundance-festivalen 2012.

Earlier this spring I did a role in Jonas Akerlund's black comedy SMALL APARTMENTS, playing a hilarious self-help doctor who does his best to save the world from going insane. (First time since ROCKY IV my character didn't pick up a weapon...)

Can't wait!

I'm working with [director] Jonas Akerlund on a comedy called Small Apartments. I play a self-help guy, like Tony Robbins, with black hair and Las Vegas clothing. I look like Wayne Newton. It will be out next year.

Amanda Plummer (PULP FICTION):

Amanda is currently at work on a number of new films, including Small Apartments, where she will star alongside Little Britain’s Matt Lucas, as well as James Caan, Johnny Knoxville, Billy Crystal, and Rosie Perez.

“It’s directed by Jonas Åkerlund,” she says. “I liked him the moment I met him and I told him I really wanted to work with him.”

Chanel Ryan (model / "scream queen"):

Small Apartments has an amazing cast and is directed by the legendary Jonas Akerlund. I am such a fan of his work!

From the writer Chris Millis's blog:

The star-studded film is pointing towards a premiere at Sundance 2012.

"The FX bust of Peter Stormare being prepped for the last day of shooting."


"Johnny Knoxville moving in for a goodbye squeeze with Billy Crystal
as director, Jonas Akerlund, and D.P., Par Ekberg, head back to set."


"Original cover (2001), as designed and illustrated by the author."

On Juno Temple

She’s also part of Jonas Akerlund‘s adaptation of cult novel “Small Apartments,” alongside an eclectic cast including Matt Lucas, James Caan, Dolph Lundgren and many more, and Temple reveals that she spent most of her time with a certain “Jackass” star. “I had such a good time filming that. I have a lot of scenes with Johnny Knoxville.”

Dolph is supposed to be hilarious in it, but I don't know if he'll be on the poster because of such a big cast and moreover because I think they want to keep it rather mysterious until the film is released...

Juno Temple is in this? I love her as an actress, really cute and talented. She was great in Atonement, and I also hear she's going to be in The Dark Knight Rises.

Good taste
Juno was also good in Gregg Araki's KABOOM and Jordan (Ridley's daughter) Scott's CRACKS.

Yeah I've been planning on seeing Cracks for a while now - with Temple AND Eva Green, atleast it'll be visually interesting.

2012 Sundance Predictions: Jonas Åkerlund's Small Apartments

Another item that could end up in the Midnight in Park City section is the book to film adaptation of Small Apartments (see movie prop pic above). The 2003 festival edition saw Jonas Åkerlund showcase his first film Spun. The cast for his third picture is a nutty bunch -- it's toplined by Juno Temple and supported by a huge cast of misfit looking actors.

Gist: Based on Chris Millis' novel and penned by the author himself, this is about a man surrounded by strange events and odd neighbors.

Producers: David Hillary (Yellow), Timothy Wayne Peternel - Producer, Ash R. Shah - Producer, Bonnie Timmermann (Violet & Daisy)
