Woody Allen has filmed iconic images of his beloved New York City, then turned to London, Spain and Paris.

And now, it�s Rhode Island�s turn.

Steven Feinberg, executive director of the Rhode Island Film & Television Office, on Monday confirmed reports that Allen�s next movie will be filmed in the Ocean State sometime this summer, with stars Emma Stone and Joaquin Phoenix.

�That is all I can share at this point per the request of the producer,� Feinberg said in an email to The Providence Journal.

The Boston Globe reported that Boston-based C.P. Casting is holding auditions for actors interested in roles in Allen�s movie. The casting company told The Globe that auditions are by appointment.

The movie is described as a contemporary film with academics, graduate students, middle-class and working-class characters.

C.P. Casting could not be reached for comment Monday. Allen�s publicist in New York City and his manager in California did not return calls.

The next Woody Allen movie to reach theaters will be �Magic in the Moonlight,� starring Stone and Colin Firth. A romantic comedy set in the south of France in the 1920s, it is scheduled for release in late July.

Feinberg said Allen�s movie shot in Rhode Island will be eligible for the state�s film tax credit, which gives productions a tax discount up to 25 percent of money spent within the state. Tax credits are capped at $5 million per production.
