Dafoe, Hoskins, Modine to tell 'Tales'

November 28, 2006 Willem Dafoe, Bob Hoskins and Matthew Modine are set to star in writer-director Abel Ferrara's "Go Go Tales," a screwball comedy that has taken an equally circuitous path to production. Dafoe will play the owner of a New York go-go dancing club whose brother and financial backer (Modine) threatens to pull the plug on his business. Ferrara originally was slated to begin principal photography on the project in January 2005, but after several territories were presold, the production never got off the ground.
