Celebrated filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson's next directorial venture will be a high school movie set in the 1970s.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Anderson will write, direct and produce the yet untitled film.
The film will revolve around a high school student from San Fernando Valley who is also a successful child actor.
San Fernando Valley, the northern stretch of Los Angeles, has previously acted as the setting for the director's 1997 film "Boogie Nights", 1999's "Magnolia" and 2002's "Punch-Drunk Love".
Casting is currently underway.
The director is planning to start the production on the film in February next year.
