Watts, Bening to join ‘Mother and Child’

Annette Bening, Naomi Watts, Kerry Washington and Shareeka Epps are set to star in Rodrigo García’s upcoming drama “Mother and Child.”

Described by Variety as a “multilayered” film, the plot centers on a woman who gave up her daughter many years ago and an African-American woman who is trying to adopt.

García, who developed most episodes of TV’s “In Treatment” and recently helmed “Passengers,” is directing his own script.

Bening was last seen in Diane English’s comedy “The Women.” Watts most recently starred in “Funny Games,” with “The International” coming up next.

As for Washington, her last film was “Lakeview Terrace.” Future projects of hers include Brian Robbins’ “A Thousand Words” and “Life Is Hot in Cracktown.”

Youngster Epps appeared in “Half Nelson” and will next star in Wes Craven’s “25/8.”
