Sally Field joins 'Spoiler Alert'

The story follows Ausiello (Parsons) who unpacks the emotional maelstrom into which his relationship was plunged in the 11 months that took his partner, photographer Kit (Aldridge), from his diagnosis with terminal cancer to his passing

Veteran actor Sally Field has joined the cast of 'Spoiler Alert', a tragicomic love story. The film is based on journalist Michael Ausiello’s best-selling memoir of the same title. Michael Showalter will direct the film, which will be led by actors Jim Parsons and Ben Aldridge.

The story follows Ausiello (Parsons) who unpacks the emotional maelstrom into which his relationship was plunged in the 11 months that took his partner, photographer Kit (Aldridge), from his diagnosis with terminal cancer to his passing.

Interwoven in the narrative are glimpses of the roller-coaster ride that was the couple’s 14-year romance. Field, the two-time Oscar-winning actor, will essay the role of Marilyn, the mother of Kit.

Showalter is producing the film with Jordana Mollick under their Semi-Formal Productions banner. Parsons will also serve as producer alongside Todd Spiewak and Alison Mo Massey under their That’s Wonderful Productions banner. Spoiler Alert will start production in New York later this year.
