Actresses Kate Winslet and Catherine Keener have signed on for Charlie Kaufman's new comedy Frank or Francis.

The story centers around an online war that develops between a successful filmmaker (Steve Carell) and a movie blogger (Jack Black). Nicolas Cage also stars as The Emcee, an actor known for commercial successes such as Fat Dad, and Kevin Kline stars as the director's brother. No details were given regarding Kate Winslet and Catherine Keener's characters.

Charlie Kaufman is directing Frank or Francis from his own screenplay, which is said to be a send-up of Hollywood musicals. We reported back in September that Frank or Francis is supposed to start production in January, but it doesn't seem that production has started yet.

Both Kate Winslet and Catherine Keener were nominated for Academy Awards in movies Charlie Kaufman wrote. Kate Winslet was nominated for Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and Catherine Keener received a nod for Charlie Kaufman's debut, Being John Malkovich.
