George Clooney - New coming-of-age film for Netflix
Netflix has reportedly secured three Hollywood celebrities for a new production. As the industry magazine "Deadline" reports, George Clooney (62) and Adam Sandler (57) will be in front of the camera together for the first time. The as yet untitled film is also to be directed by Noah Baumbach (54), who was jointly responsible for the huge success of "Barbie" this year.
Baumbach and his partner and "Barbie" director Greta Gerwig (40) wrote the screenplay for the hit movie, which is the most successful film of 2023 at the box office with more than 1.4 billion US dollars grossed. He reportedly worked on the screenplay for the new Netflix project together with Emily Mortimer (52). Baumbach, Amy Pascal (65) and David Heyman (62) are also said to be the producers of the Netflix film.
Coming-of-age drama about adults
Little is yet known about the content of the film. "Deadline" describes the plot as a coming-of-age movie about adults, with funny and emotional elements. However, the streaming giant has not yet issued an official statement on the report.
Baumbach currently has an exclusive contract with Netflix. He has already directed "The Meyerowitz Stories (New and Selected)" with Adam Sandler, Ben Stiller (58) and Emma Thompson (64) . He also shot the marital drama "Marriage Story" with Adam Driver (40), Scarlett Johansson (39) and Laura Dern (56), which was nominated for six Oscars, for the streaming service. Baumbach's last Netflix film to date was "White Noise" with Driver and Gerwig.
