Bruce Willis, Owen Wilson and Kieran Culkin will star in “Three Stories about Joan.”

Willis also will direct the psychological thriller that will shoot in Shreveport from Oct. 2 through Nov. 10, according to the Louisiana Office of Entertainment Industry Development.

Willis, an iconic action hero best known for playing John McClane in the “Die Hard” franchise, counts dozens of films among his credits. Enduring titles include “Armageddon,” “The Sixth Sense,” “The Fifth Element” and “Pulp Fiction.”

Wilson has made his mark in contemporary comedy in hits like “Wedding Crashers,” “Meet the Parents” and “The Royal Tenenbaums,” for which he shared an Oscar nomination with director Wes Anderson for best original screenplay.

Culkin’s screen credits include “Igby Goes Down” and “The Cider House Rules,” plus the “Home Alone” and “Father of the Bride” franchises. He’s brother of erstwhile child star Macaulay Culkin.
