If we learned anything about the “joy of drawing” when we were kids, it’s from the TV in our living room where Bob Ross with an afana as characteristic as the landscapes he painted, he gave lessons on how we, too, can easily and quickly become artists.

After getting a well-deserved meme in the magical world of the internet, Bob Ross is now getting ready to shine. big screen.

Approximately since Dye which is expected to hit US theaters April 7 It is one “pseudo-biographical” we would say. In it we will see the story of a fictional character named Carl Nagil, a television artist with a crested afana who teaches viewers the secrets of painting landscapes like his. That is what Bob Ross did through his show. “The Joy of Painting” which aired on PBS from 1983 to 1994, as well as related channels worldwide.

Of course, otherwise “Paint”, this is her production IFC, will tell a fictional story about a television artist, who in this case should have a very different life behind the television cameras, as he “turns” into a man obsessed with fame and women.

And who better to play Carl Nagil/Bob Ross than Owen Wilson? Next to the American actor we will see her Kiara Rene as a young artist, but also their Michaela Watkins, Louise Struss, Stephen Root and Lucy Freire.

He will sit in the director’s chair about Britt McAdams, who also signs the script and has worked primarily in documentaries and television in the past.
