Writer of The Batman and Producers behind La La Land and Drive. Good creative team behind the scenes.

When this project happens. Let's be positive. I can see buyers going in for this at Cannes. I was also wondering if we might hear about a project during Cannes as that will be 3 years ago we got French Exit and Turn of Mind.

Bye bye, Francis 😉.
Always thrilled when her name is announced as the lead in what sounds like a top tier project with an impressive creative team. Hoping this sparks bidding at Cannes and moves past the hot package phase to production. No more Turn Of Mind, please.
Great title!

If we're being honest, if she is ever going to win an oscar, it would likely be for something like this lol, if it's a hit. So bring it on. I hate to even bring the O word up, just saying.

Yeah let's not even bring up the O word as we always just get left bitterly disappointed. Let's hope for once this whole package is strong and not just good notices for Michelle's performance.

Yea, I love this space of time when a new project is announced. No expectations, just excitement and curiosity of what this could be.

The behind-the-scenes pedigree is staggering. I wonder what level of production this will have in terms of budget, distributor, etc.

So much potential with this team behind it. Can it pls be good if it gets made, my god. Only negative I will say is "directorial debut" really scares me.

I think this film will get made. Protagonist seem a decent production company and are already listing as in Pre Production. Wonder if this will go theatrical or get picked up by a streamer Netflix, Amazon?

Wonder if this will go theatrical or get picked up by a streamer Netflix, Amazon? I dunno why, but I could totally see this as an Amazon project. It's a feeling I have based on absolutely nothing ha ha! |

Just seen on another thread and also never realised the writer/director is Sally Field's son.

This is the kind of role that would have gone to Meryl, Jessica or Helen M but I think Michelle's performances in FE and TFL elevated her on the list of go-to names.

I just hope this isn't going to be one of those projects which is initially announced and then we hear nothing about it again or for months. Hopefully they secure deals at Cannes if they don't already have some in place and it quickly moves in to production.

Don't hate me for this but I just a horrible thought. What if Mark Platt insists on casting son Ben as one of the grandsons? HORRORS. Hopefully, MP has casting approval in her contract. But I'm not obsessing. Let me clear about that.  |

He does seem a bit old for the description of the characters. I'm sure Peter Craig would have final decision being the writer/director.

That didn't stop them from casting him in DEH and we all know how that turned out but, in that case, he originated the role on stage. Hopefully, you are right and he will not be cast in this. |

The writer/director is on Twitter twitter.com/PeterCraigxyz?lang=enDoesn't seem to tweet much but he did like all the tweets of trades confirming Michelle in this. Anyone brave enough to DM to see if can get more information about this? Lol. |

Since she has instagram she is confirming all her projects the same day they are published at the press, she posted about “French exit”, “Quantumania”, “First ladys”… but never said a word about “Turnd of mind”… She still didn’t say nothing about this, so don’t think this is confirmed, either “Megapolis”
