The post George Clooney and Adam Sandler to Lead Noah Baumbach’s Next Film appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>This project has been described as “a funny and emotional coming-of-age film about adults”, but plot details are still being held under wraps. Baumbach is coming on board as its director and producer, in addition to co-writing the script with Emily Mortimer.
This film will mark Baumbach’s first collaboration with Clooney, but he and Sandler go back a long way. The Uncut Gems actor previously starred in Baumbach’s acclaimed dramedy The Meyerowitz Stories alongside Ben Stiller, Dustin Hoffman, and Emma Thompson.
This upcoming film also marks the continuation of Baumbach’s fruitful collaboration with Netflix. The Meyerowitz Stories marked his first film with the streamer, followed by six-time Oscar-nominated Marriage Story and its follow-up White Noise, both starring Adam Driver.
Sandler is fresh from starring in several comedy films as a part of his Netflix deal, including You Are So Not Invited To My Bat Mitzvah and the animated movie Leo. Clooney most recently directed the sports drama Boys in the Boat and will soon appear in Jon Watts’ action thriller Wolfs alongside his Ocean’s Eleven co-star Brad Pitt.

]]>The post “White Noise” Starring Greta Gerwig and Adam Driver Set to Open 2022 Venice Film Festival appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>White Noise is based on Don DeLillo’s book of the same name, and it centers on a contemporary American family as they deal with the mundane conflicts of everyday life. In addition to Driver and Gerwig, the film also stars Don Cheadle, Raffey Cassidy, Sam Nivola, May Nivola, and Jodie Turner-Smith.
Baumbach’s previous directorial effort Marriage Story also had its world premiere in Venice, and the acclaimed director said it’s an honor to open the festival with White Noise.
“It is a truly wonderful thing to return to the Venice Film Festival, and an incredible honor to have White Noise play as the opening night film. This is a place that loves cinema so much, and it’s a thrill and a privilege to join the amazing films and filmmakers that have premiered here,” said Baumbach.
Festival chief Alberto Barbera echoed his statement and described White Noise as an “original, ambitious and compelling piece of art”, that “examines our obsessions, doubts, and fear”.
The 79th Venice International Film Festival is set to take place between August 31 and September 10 with Julianne Moore serving as a jury president.

]]>The possibility of Gerwig’s involvement in this project was first reported all the way back in 2019, and Robbie finally made things official during her recent interview with British Vogue.
“[With Barbie] comes a lot of exciting ways to attack it. People generally hear Barbie and think, ‘I know what that movie is going to be,’ and then they hear that Greta Gerwig is writing and directing it, and they’re like, ’Oh, well, maybe I don’t,’” said Robbie.
According to Variety, Gerwig will co-write the script with her frequent collaborator Noah Baumbach. The production will kick off in early 2022, while the film itself is eyed for a 2023 release date. The creative duo previously co-wrote the movies Frances Ha and Mistress America, both starring Gerwig. She’s next set to appear in Baumbach’s adaptation of Don DeLillo’s novel White Noise.

]]>The post “Barbie” Lands a Writer and Director appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>The doll, which was first released in 1959, is turning 60 this year and is finally about to make her big-screen debut.
It was announced last year that the Suicide Squad actress, Margot Robbie, would be involved in the project, both producing and starring as the blonde bombshell who has been a companion to girls the world over.
Now the Warner Bros.’ production appears to have secured itself a director and a writer.
The real-life couple, Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach, are reported to be taking on the respective roles, with the Lady Bird director taking on a script penned by The Squid and the Whale filmmaker.
This would be Gerwig’s third venture in the directing chair following Lady Bird and Little Women which is currently in production.
It is not yet known which storyline Barbie would follow, but we bet life in plastic will be fantastic.
