Director Noah Baumbach's latest dramatic comedy While We're Young has lost two of its cast members in James Franco and Cate Blanchett. Ben Stiller is currently the only actor still involved with the project.

James Franco bailed on this tale of an uptight documentary filmmaker and his wife after landing the lead role in Sam Raimi's Oz: The Great and Powerful. Cate Blanchett left soon thereafter, though no reason was given for her departure. Some speculate that it may have to do with her upcoming role in Peter Jackson's The Hobbit.

Ben Stiller and Noah Baumbach previously worked together on last year's Greenberg. This will mark their second collaboration together.
