 I think these credits are sometimes negotiated into contracts, but the Producers Guild pretty much insists that a "Produced By" credit be reserved for someone who had decision making status at some point in the production.  I don't know why Brian couldn't have been involved in the development or pre-production aspects of the film, and that may have been enough for him to get "Produced By" credits.  It's not necessarily just an unmerited grab at an Oscar nomination.

They would have rocks in their heads not to list him as Producer.
Absolute no brainer.

That's a choice the hands-on producers of the movie have made to give him equal billing as producer, because I doubt he did as much heavy lifting that someone such as John Wells does, who has a long list of credits and experience in movies and TV. It's not something that happens overnight. Though I suppose if the film does well and Brian gets a taste for it, he might get more involved over time in other films. He might even create his own production company, such as Mick Jagger has.

I thought this was very cool: John Cusack, the actor who's playing the older Brian Wilson in the upcoming biopic, seems to really dig SMiLE, and it doesn't sound like he's talking it up just because he's "in character." He has posted several recent references to SMiLE on Twitter, all of them praising the album, with one of them posted below.  I love how he describes it as a "waking dream." Well said. He may be a little late to the party, but the guy obviously has great taste in music.

Listen to this glorious music  like a waking  dream

Maybe getting the part introduced him to Brian's music and he's getting excited about it? I remember when I first discovered Smile....

Seems like he just got introducted to it, which is a great thing, never too late to become a smile obsessive. I'm pretty excited to see "Love and Mercy"


Side note: The "Wild Honey" album cover got some screen time in the great Cusack movie "High Fidelity", if you haven't seen that movie, see it.

I imagine you're right...  he couldn't really do Brian justice without becoming familiar with his music, and now he's a fan. What's not to like?

I can't wait to see the guy who portrayed a convincing E.A. Poe (in The Raven - the film was rather sh*tty, though) play Brian Wilson. Cheesy Cusack is a great actor, though. He'll do a fine job.



Here are some of his (more popular) works I'd recommend for people who haven't seen them:


High Fidelity


1408


Grosse Point Blank


The Raven


Con Air ( Grin )

What a fine interviewer, really got some great stuff out of Brian instead of yes/no/California Girls.

I watched 'Being John Malcovich' last week - it got me really excited to see Cusack play Brian.

I hope if you come in 20 minutes late to this movie the first thing you hear is, "Come in, Mr. Spector". Mind gangster payback.

Am I imagining this or is Dano still talking out of the side of his mouth a bit? Smiley

Missed this goodie altogether. Afterthought is: Paul Dano is the righteous choice for the young Brian. Frankly, I even start to think he will outshine John Cusack despite the latter having a longer career. Thanks, beacharg!

Me too! There should be NO seconds-long teasers by this time already. We cannot wait till someone's birthday celebration, you know.
