Noah Baumbach never struggled to attract A-list talent to his project, and his next film will truly be an embarrassment of riches. The acclaimed filmmaker rounded out the ensemble of his star-studded Netflix film, which now includes Greta Gerwig, Isla Fisher, and Patrick Wilson.

Baumbach’s untitled new project has been described as a coming-of-age story about adults, and its ensemble will be packed with A-list talent. Before the full supporting cast has been unveiled, George Clooney, Adam Sandler, Laura Dern, Billy Crudup, and Riley Keough have been cast in the lead roles.

They’ll be joined by an impressive lineup of supporting players, starting with Baumbach’s wife and frequent collaborator Greta Gerwig. Emily Mortimer, who wrote the script for this film alongside Baumbach, will also play one of the supporting roles.

The cast will also include the likes of Oscar winner Jim Broadbent (Iris), Isla Fisher (Wedding Crashers), Eve Hewson (Flora and Son), Patrick Wilson (The Conjuring), Grace Edwards (Asteroid City), Josh Hamilton (Eighth Grade), Lars Eidnger (White Noise), Stacy Keach (Nebraska), and Nicôle Lecky (Mood), among others.

Baumbach and Netflix go a long way, and this project will mark his fourth collaboration with the streamer, following The Meyerowitz Stories (New and Selected), Marriage Story, and White Noise.

Barbie is one of the most anticipated movies of 2023 and Greta Gerwig finally decided to give us a taste of things to come. The first teaser trailer shows Margot Robbie transforming into Barbie, and it does a great job of dropping hints about the movie without revealing any plot details.

The one-minute-long teaser evokes Stanley Kubrick’s classic 2001: A Space Odyssey from the first frame to the last and opens with a voice-over from Helen Mirren herself, saying, “Since the beginning of time, since the first little girl ever existed, there have been dolls. But the dolls were always and forever baby dolls. Until …”

Following these ominous words, the camera pans to a giant Barbie, replacing the monolith from Kubrick’s early-man sequence. The girls who were shown playing with baby dolls in earlier scenes, smash them in slow motion after being wowed by Barbie, who winks at the camera at the end of the trailer.

We then get to see several scenes from the movie itself that don’t reveal much of the movie’s plot but give us a look at Ryan Gosling, Issa Rae, and Simu Liu in character. The supporting cast also includes Ncuti Gatwa, America Ferrera, Emma Mackey, Kingsley Ben-Adir, Kate McKinnon, Will Ferrell, Michael Cera, and Hari Nef, among others.

Barbie will be released on July 21, 2023 by Warner Bros. Pictures.

Netflix is bringing many Oscar hopefuls our way in the upcoming few weeks and White Noise is one of their strongest contenders for this prestigious award. The streaming giant just dropped the first full trailer for the black comedy starring Adam Driver and Greta Gerwig.

According to its official synopsis, White Noise “dramatizes a contemporary American family’s attempts to deal with the mundane conflicts of everyday life while grappling with the universal mysteries of love, death, and the possibility of happiness in an uncertain world.”

White Noise is based on Don DeLillo’s book of the same name and Noah Baumbach was in charge of adapting it for Netflix. This marks his third collaboration with the streaming service, following The Meyerowitz Stories and Marriage Story, which was nominated for six Oscars.

In addition to Driver and Gerwig, who plays a middle-aged couple trying to make it through an airborne toxic event with their four children, this film also stars Raffey Cassidy, André Benjamin, Alessandro Nivola, Jodie Turner-Smith, and Don Cheadle.

White Noise premiered at the 79th Venice International Film Festival as its opening film, where it was met with critical acclaim. It will have a limited theatrical release on November 25, before premiering on Netflix on December 30.

Greta Gerwig and Oscar Isaac are set to star in an Off-Broadway production. 

The two have joined an adaptation of Anton Chekhov’s “Three Sisters” for New York Theatre Workshop in Manhattan, according to the company’s announcement Tuesday. 

Staging the Chekhov production is Tony award-winning Sam Gold, who directed Isaac in the title role of “Hamlet” and Gerwig in “The Village Bike.” The play details life in a Russian town through the eyes of the Prozorov sisters.

Gerwig was Oscar-nominated for Lady Bird and she recently wrapped production on her second directorial project, Little Women, starring Saoirse Ronin, Meryl Streep, Timothée Chalamet, Laura Dern, Eliza Scanlen and Florence Pugh.

Isaac is best known for his roles in films such as X-Men: Apocalypse and Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach have proven they’re a match made in heaven with Frances Ha and Mistress America, and they’re gearing up to work together on their first big-budget project – the Barbie movie starring Margot Robbie.

Gerwig and Baumbach will be in charge of co-writing the script for this exciting project. The Oscar-nominated filmmaker behind the critically acclaimed comedy Lady Bird is also in talks to direct the movie.

Margot Robbie is currently the only actress attached to the project. Robbie Brenner, the executive producer of Mattel Films, said it’s extremely important to them to make this movie as diverse as possible.

“For us, the Barbie movie should definitely have a message of female empowerment, and that you can dream and be anything you want. I do think it’s important to push the boundaries and push the limits. And I think people are really ready to see something different,” said Brenner during Fortune’s Brainstorm Tech conference.

Greta Gerwig gave us one of the best coming-of-age films in recent years with Lady Bird, and she’s finally back for more. Her adaptation of the classic novel Little Women is coming to theaters this Christmas, and the acclaimed director finally shared the first look at this highly-anticipated period drama.

The first photos show Emma Watson, Florence Pugh, Saoirse Ronan, and Eliza Scanlen taking on the roles of the March sisters, in this timeless story about coming-of-age in the aftermath of the Civil War. We also get to see the rest of the cast – including Timothée Chalamet, Laura Dern and Meryl Streep – bringing their characters to life.

Gerwig shared the exclusive first look with Vanity Fair and explained why she decided to adapt Louisa May Alcott’s classic tale. She always identified with her heroine Jo March, because she was the person Gerwig wanted to be, and that’s why filming Little Women felt like a deeply personal experience.

“This feels like an autobiography. When you live through a book, it almost becomes the landscape of your inner life… It becomes part of you, in a profound way.” said Gerwig while chatting with Vanity Fair.

The talent-loaded production based on the classic story by Louisa May Alcott has yet to start production but is already garnering a lot of interest. The feature will be produced by Amy Pascal along with Denise Di Novi and Robin Swicord.

According to the outlet, it is still unknown who Odenkirk will be playing, but considering he’s not a little woman, there aren’t too many options. 

Odenkirk’s recent credits include The Disaster Artist, and Incredibles 2. He’s currently starring in season four of the acclaimed Better Call Saul on AMC.

Watson joins the star-studded cast set to star in the remake. According to Variety, Watson has been tapped to play the part originally intended for Stone, who is unable to join due to previous obligations. 

Watson will be joining Meryl Streep, Timothee Chalamet, Saoirse Ronan, and Laura Dern for the adaptation of Louisa May Alcott’s classic which follows the March sisters in Civil War-era America.

The project is helmed by Gerwig, who is set to direct and write the film. Gerwig was nominated for five Oscars earlier this year for her Lady Bird.
