Two of Austin�s movie men have a new project�together.

Tim League�s distribution company, Neon, and Vice have bought the U.S. rights to �Beach Bum,� a film to be written and directed by Harmony Korine (�Spring Breakers�) and starring Matthew McConaughey. The movie is scheduled to begin production�this fall for a 2018 release, Deadline reports.

League, founder of the Alamo Drafthouse, will be an executive producer on the film, described as �an irreverent comedy that follows the misadventures of Moondog (McConaughey), a rebellious and lovable rogue who lives life large.� Sounds about right for Austin�s spirit animal.
