Stephen Dorff has revealed that Sofia Coppola has given him an “incredible part” in new film Somewhere.

Speaking at the Los Angeles premiere of his latest film Public Enemies, Stephen wouldn’t give too much away about the new film apart from the fact he’s going to play a Hollywood actor.

The star gushed: “Sofia is the greatest and she gave me an incredible part we’re shooting now.”

He continued: “I can’t really talk too much about the movie because she doesn’t really want people to know what it is.

“It’s about a guy and his little girl and that’s really all that’s out there in the press right now so I don’t want to comment too much.

“But I can just tell you that I think it’s gonna be really special.”

The movie is also thought to star Ella Fanning as Stephen character’s daughter, and Jackass star Chris Pontius.

Stephen Dorff walked the red carpet alongside Johnny Depp, Christian Bale, Marion Cotillard and Giovanni Ribisi for the premiere of Public Enemies in Los Angeles on Wednesday.

I’m pleased to say there’s a ton of photos floating around. I have added some to the gallery, and I’m sure there will be more to come.

Public Enemies Los Angeles Film Festival Premiere gallery

For the second evening in a row, Hollywood proper came stomping through the more usually indie-centric environs of the Los Angeles Film Festival. Where Monday night had seen a lavish-to-the-point-of-ridiculous event celebrating the robot wars of “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” with the attendant red carpet ruckus, Tuesday night was given over to a decidedly more dignified to-do for the Depression-era tale of bank robber John Dillinger in “Public Enemies.”

The event began with full-on star power from Johnny Depp, Christian Bale and Marion Cotillard, as well as appearances on the carpet by director Michael Mann and cast members Giovanni Ribisi, Leelee Sobieski, Carey Mulligan, Branka Katic, Rory Cochrane, Jason Clarke and Stephen Dorff, as well as Rosario Dawson, Vince Vaughn, Chan Marshall, Samm Levine, Amber Heard, Ondi Timoner, Shawn Hatosy, Peter Fonda, Jerry Bruckheimer and others.

Festival director Rebecca Yeldham introduced the screening by saying, “‘Public Enemies’ is unlike any movie I’ve ever seen.”
