James Gray Claims Inherent Vice Is "In The Middle Of Shooting"

During the Cannes press junket for The Immigrant, James Gray arrived with many members of the cast & production team and was quickly asked about the absence of Joaquin Phoenix.

Joaquin Phoenix couldn�t be in Cannes because he�s shooting a little movie called �Inherent Vice.�

One of the first questions from the media in Cannes was, where�s Joaquin? Well, he�s currently shooting the much-anticipated new movie from Paul Thomas Anderson based on the stoner/detective novel by Thomas Pynchon. 

�Actually, believe it or not, he wanted to come, which is a first,� Gray said. �But he�s in the middle of shooting a movie with Paul Thomas Anderson and they wouldn�t let him out. You know it�s a Friday in the middle of a shoot week so, it was impossible.�
