May 4, 2006 - Colin Farrell's out and Heath Ledger's in. Ledger and Michelle Williams are joining the cast of the Bob Dylan biopic, I'm Not There, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Todd Haynes (Far From Heaven)wrote the script and will direct the film.

I'm Not There will not be a standard biopic. Instead the film will have seven different actors representing the different aspects of Bob Dylan's life and music. Ledger's in negotiations to play one of the seven.

Ledger and Williams are joining a cast which already includes some big name actors. Cate Blanchett, Christian Bale, Julianne Moore, and Richard Gere are already cast in the movie, with filming expected to begin in July in Montreal.

Ledger and Williams met and fell in love on the set of Brokeback Mountain. The couple are now the proud parents of Matilda Ledger, born October 28, 2005 in Brooklyn, New York.
