IMDbPro added Patrick McCullough to the cast of The Childhood of a Leader. No character name as usual. Things seem to be moving steadily ahead for this film. Am hoping we do get to see it at one of the film festival come September/October. I don’t mind which one. Venice has been mentioned previously. It seems this info was available back in February when this article was posted *shrugs*. You can’t catch everything right ha! For those who want to know a little more about Patrick:
