20th Century Fox has released a new batch of photos from Rules Don’t Apply starring Lily Collins and Alden Ehrenreich (recently cast as the young Han Solo). The romantic drama is written, directed, produced and stars Oscar winner Warren Beatty (Reds) as billionaire Howard Hughes. In addition to Collins, Ehrenreich, and Beatty, the cast includes Alec Baldwin, Annette Bening (Beatty’s wife), Haley Bennett, Candice Bergen, Matthew Broderick, Dabney Coleman, Steve Coogan, Taissa Farmiga, Ed Harris, Megan Hilty, Oliver Platt and Martin Sheen. Fox is set to release Rules Don’t Apply in theaters on November 11, 2016.

The Plot: From legendary Academy-Award winning director Warren Beatty, comes Rules Don’t Apply. Blending equal measures of humor and heart, this is the unconventional love story of an aspiring actress (Lily Collins), her determined driver (Alden Ehrenreich), and the eccentric billionaire (Warren Beatty) who they work for. It’s Hollywood, 1958. Small town beauty queen and devout Baptist Marla Mabrey (Collins), under contract to the infamous Howard Hughes (Beatty), arrives in Los Angeles. At the airport, she meets her personal driver Frank Forbes (Ehrenreich), only two weeks on the job and also from a religiously conservative background. Their instant attraction not only puts their religious convictions to the test, but also defies Hughes’ #1 rule: no employee is allowed to have an intimate relationship with a contract actress. But Hughes’ absurd behavior intersects with Marla and Frank in very separate and unexpected ways, and as they are drawn deeper into his bizarre world, their values are challenged and their lives are changed.
