Touchstone Pictures forthcoming film Shopgirl is based on the bestselling novel of the same name by Steve Martin. The film stars Steve Martin, Claire Danes and Jason Schwartzman.

Shopgirl is a romantic movie about a young lady named Mirabelle (Claire Danes) working at the glove counter of Saks Fifth Avenue in Beverly Hills. An artist struggling just to pay the minimum on her credit cards and student loans, Mirabelle keeps mostly to herself, until wealthy elder Ray Porter (Steve Martin) shows up, showering her with affection and bundles of dough. The relationship is passionate, but she questions how long it will last.

Then she meets a musician her own age Jeremy (Jason Schwartzman), a bachelor who’s not nearly as cultured or successful as Ray. She has to choose which man is better suited for her.

You may remember that Jimmy Fallon had been briefly linked to the project. Jason Schwartzman, obviously, signed for the part that Fallon was rumored to be up for.
