Zellner Brothers Cast Cate Blanchett, Chris Pine as Space Aliens in New Film 'Alpha Gang'

Filmmakers David and Nathan Zellner have assembled an all-star cast, including Cate Blanchett and Chris Pine, to play space aliens in their new film "Alpha Gang." A review from Variety Film describes the brothers as continuing their uncompromisingly DIY approach to moviemaking even as they work with a larger roster of recognizable names. The outlet calls it one of the more notable feats in independent film today, given how difficult it has become to get movies made at all.
