WATCH: New Haim + PTA Video: "Man From The Magazine"

Happy Wednesday!

Not sure how (or when) they were able to squeak this in, but PTA & the Haim ladies have made another video -- this time for "Man From The Magazine", off of Haim's most recent (and excellent) album Women in Music Pt. III.

Enjoy!

PTA Finds "Soggy Bottom" Lead in Cooper Hoffman; Alana Haim Casting Confirmed

Good evening!

Some interesting news broke today, following a few days of speculation...

The Hollywood Reporter now confirms that the high school student at the center of PTA's forthcoming formally untitled 9th feature film will be played by none other than the late, great Philip Seymour Hoffman's son, Cooper Hoffman. 

This will mark Cooper's first ever screen performance. 

THR also confirms reports that noted PTA collaborator Alana Haim will indeed appear in the film as well, though little is still known about the nature of her role.

Folks, whatever PTA is cooking up here seems to be a labor of love at the very least.  We can't wait to share more.
