Austin Film Festival Full Slate

The Austin Film Festival has already made some big announcements, but the reveal today of their full feature lineup for 2016 saved the biggest for last. The list includes new features starring Bryan Cranston, Jennifer Garner, Patton Oswalt, Emma Stone, and Ryan Gosling, plus a special talk with legendary producer Frank Marshall.

Best known for production credits on a string of Steven Spielberg projects (including the Indiana Jones movies), Marshall will be presenting his new documentary Finding Oscar, about the search for survivors of the Guatemalan Dos Erres Massacre.

For more recognizable names before the camera, Garner and Cranston star in Wakefield, the adaptation of E. L. Doctorow's short story of the same name; Gosling and Stone team up for the first time since for 2013's Gangster Squad for musical La La Land; while Oswalt and Paul Rudd get all animated for Nerdland.

Also watch out for several Austin projects, including the long-awaited local arrival of meta-horror Found Footage 3D as part of the Dark Matters strand, and the world premiere of Hot Air in the Comedy Vanguard.

The Austin Film Festival runs October 13-20. For more information and to purchase badges, visit www.austinfilmfestival.com. See the full feature lineup below.
