The Brutalist will center on a visionary architect named László Toth (Joel Edgerton) and his life Erzsébet (Marion Cotillard), chronicling their lives over the course of three decades. After fleeing post-war Europe to rebuild their legacy in America, their lives are changed forever after they run into a mysterious and wealthy client (Mark Rylance).

Edgerton and Oscar winners Cotillard and Rylance were among the first actors cast in this project, alongside Sebastian Stan (Captain America), Vanessa Kirby (The Crown), Isaach De Bankolé (Black Panther), Alessandro Nivola (American Hustle), Raffey Cassidy (The Killing of a Sacred Deer), and Stacy Martin (Nymphomaniac).

After the principal photography kicked off in Hungary in recent weeks, it was confirmed that the cast would include several more A-list stars, starting with Adrien Brody (The Pianist), Felicity Jones (Rogue One: A Star Wars Story), Guy Pearce (Mare of Easttown), and Joe Alwyn (Conversations with Friends).

Corbert wrote the script for The Brutalist alongside Mona Fastvold, and this will mark his third feature directorial effort following The Childhood of a Leader and Vox Lux.

Conversations with Friends will center on the lives of two Dublin college students, best friends, and former lovers—Frances (Oliver) and Bobbi (Lane). Their lives take an unexpected turn after they forge a connection with an enigmatic married couple, Melissa (Kirke) and Nick (Alwyn).

Just like Normal People, this adaptation will be directed by Lenny Abrahamson, who will also serve as the executive producer alongside Rooney. Alice Birch will also return as one of the primary writers, after scoring a screenwriting Emmy nomination together with Rooney.

Like the stars of Normal People, Alison Oliver is a newcomer to the scene, but she’ll be in good company. Jemima Kirke got a lot of TV experience during her time on HBO’s Girls, while Sasha Lane recently appeared in Utopia and she’s set to star in Marvel’s Loki. Joe Alwyn’s credits include roles in Oscar-nominated movies The Favourite and Harriet.
