Out actor Alan Cumming, who made his directorial debut alongside Jennifer Jason Leigh with The Anniversary Party, has made a deal with England's FilmFour to write, direct, and star in two films, according to Variety. Gardener's Question Time will deal with a group of friends and how they stay close over a 10-year period, while Diva will star Cumming as what he calls "a man who moves into an apartment and becomes obsessed with the women who live opposite him. He's not inherently bad, but he could become sinister. I've got an ability to display the ambiguity that is good for such a character, so I have no problem casting myself."
