Josh Brolin is in negotiations to star in Sean Penn’s next directing gig Crazy for the Storm, potentially set to film in early 2013. The story centers on an 11-year-old boy surviving after a mountainous plane crash using the skills his father taught him; Brolin would play the father. Brolin and Penn have been acquainted for some time — as evidenced by this 2009 smooch shot — and will both appear in the recently postponed Gangster Squad.
