The Big Picture Gonzo Girl is an upcoming film directed by Patricia Arquette, adapting the novel of the same name written by Cheryl Della Prieta. In the movie, Willem Dafoe is set to play Walker Reade, someone who could be a mentor to the protagonist of the story, but instead looks like he'll be yet another obstacle in her complicated journey.

The actor also discussed the inspirations behind his character and wanting to respect that while creating something new. He said: Gonzo Girl tells the story of Alley Russo , a young woman who has recently graduated from college a moves to New York with the dream of becoming relevant within the publishing industry. However, as she would soon learn after moving to a big city, the journey isn't as easy as she thought it would be, and it's going to take more than inspiration and enthusiasm to get her to the places where she wants to go.
