Set Photos From Inherent Vice Emerge; Maya Rudolph Signs On



After weeks of letting your imagination run wild about what the production of Inherent Vice would actually look like, we are pleased to finally be able to offer you something tangible: set photos showing, for the very first time, Joaquin Phoenix, in full character and costume as Larry 'Doc' Sportello, and (perhaps a bit surprisingly) PTA's long-time partner and SNL-alum Maya Rudolph also in full character and costume. Though which role she'll take has not been confirmed, this marks the first on-screen collaboration for the couple. In case you don't want these images spoiled for ya, we'll include them after the jump (though they are pretty slight.)

In other news, Ohio will finally be getting The Master in 70mm for the first time this coming weekend at the Wexner Center for the Arts. Any buckeyes who have somehow managed to resist crossing state lines to experience the film in its intended format can find out more about that here.

UPDATE: Rudolph will be playing the role of Petunia Leeway, a nurse working for a doctor who administers B12 shots. Also, we've added several new pics of Joaquin from the set. Might be best to just keep reverting back to this page for now to see if anything else makes its way out there. We'll change things around accordingly.






















(Over Joaquin's right shoulder in the first pic of him smoking is DP Robert Elswit, lending further tangibility to the whole thing.)

Stay tuned to Twitter and Facebook for the latest news and updates.
"The Master" is now available on Blu-ray and DVD.

  3. Maya is playing Petunia Leeway. In the book, Doc and Dr. Buddy Tubeside share a two-floor office building. Petunia is the Dr.'s assistant in giving out "Vitamin B12" shots, which is really a mix of amphetamines. It's a minor role but a funny and cute one.

  6. one thing. whenever hollywood does period why does it have to unthinkingly do flawless costumes?

    1. In this case, I think they're really just honoring the spirit of Pynchon's writing. With regards to Maya's costume, a line in the book describes what is undoubtedly her character as "a stunner in a starched cap and micro-length medical outfit, not so much an actual nurse uniform as a lascivious commentary on one."

    2. As in flawlessly made or too-perfect-looking?

  8. I'll just bet Thomas Pynchon turns up in a background shot. Then, when it's announced that he's in there somewhere, folks are gonna have a high old time trying to locate him!

  11. Joaquin looks so different, taller maybe

    ReplyDelete

    1. Obviously not exactly, it's the chops. Plus PTA was quoted during the press tour of the master that he'd been reading and re reading Neil's new book. Not sure if that's what they were going for, but it's definatly what I thought of right away when I saw this.

    2. Just realized you were not responding to my comment, haha, sorry!

  12. Technically PTA worked with her on A Prairie Home Companion. Where she was also pregnant. But I'm fairly certain she hasn't stopped being pregnant since she met PTA.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Is Maya pregnant in every freaking film she is in?

    1. Let's face it guys, PTA's got the goods!

  14. He's dressed just like Thomas Pynchon, minus the hat, in that CNN clip, the one where they found him walking in NY with his son, the one he politely asked them not to air that they did anyway.

    This looks like the greatest Alan Rudolph movie ever made . . . I cannot wait.

  26. I actually predicted Doc having a perm believe it or not... But I thought it was going to look more like Elliot Gould's hair in Robert Altman's "The Long Goodbye"

    3. just read the book, man. its amazing

  27. Also, remember a while ago where PTA talked about The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers comic strip being a big influence on Inherent Vice? I'm definitely getting a "Phineas" kinda vibe of of Joaquin's costume.

    1. Agreed! I've been rereading the omnibus since I heard that. I was hoping Joaquin would keep that sideburn-to-mustache combo that he been sporting as of late

  30. c'mon the cast isn't complete yet?

    ReplyDelete
  31. Jade is now listed on IMDB. That character shows up a lot in the book.

    ReplyDelete
  32. IMDB says a bunch of other minor parts have been cast: Aunt Reet, Jade, Luz, "Groupie". And Reese Witherspoon is listed as playing Hope Harlingen.

    ReplyDelete
  33. i wonder when the other major characters will be reaveled...just a hunch but i heard emile hirsch was in the area of the shooting these days..i wonder if he lives there or is involved in the film

    ReplyDelete
  34. If there's anything to that Hirsch rumor, I'd love for him to play Denis.
