The Big Picture
- Greta Lee joins the star-studded cast for Kathryn Bigelow’s upcoming movie on Netflix.
- Greta Lee’s widely acclaimed performance in
Past Lives
sets her up for success in this highly anticipated film. - Bigelow’s track record of acclaimed films suggests this untitled movie could be Netflix’s next major hit.
The next movie directed by Kathryn Bigelow has just received a major update, as Greta Lee has joined the cast of the project. While details regarding the premise of the film are currently kept under wraps, according to Deadline the project might follow characters at the White House while a national crisis takes place. Lee will be a part of an already packed cast that will also include Idris Elba, Rebecca Ferguson and Jared Harris. The upcoming film will premiere on Netflix. Even if Lee’s role in the story wasn’t announced, there’s no denying that she will be a wonderful addition to Bigelow’s movie.
Greta Lee gained plenty of fame after starring in Past Lives, the drama directed by Celine Song that received a wonderful critical reception when it premiered last year. The performer stepped into the shoes of Nora Moon, a woman who had fallen in love with Hae Sung (Teo Yoo) many years ago. Unfortunately for them, life took them on different paths across the years, and Nora eventually got married to Arthur (John Magaro). But the story didn’t end there. The movie actively explores how their relationship affected their lives, and the tragedy that entailed losing out a potential wonderful romance due to external circumstances.
The upcoming untitled movie will also be the first one directed by Bigelow since Detroit, the crime drama that followed Melvin Dismukes (John Boyega) and Phillip Kraus (Will Poulter). The two police officers had to navigate the uncertain landscape of the 12th Street Riot. Before diving deep into the drama of Detroit, Bigelow also worked on Zero Dark Thirty, the Academy Award-nominated drama starring Jessica Chastain that told the story of the search for Osama Bin Laden. Considering how acclaimed the filmmaker’s work has been in the past, Netflix might have their next hit on their hands with the untitled movie.
Lee Joins Elba, Ferguson and Harris
The cast of the upcoming movie by Kathryn Bigelow is ready to go, but they have also been busy with a wide variety of high-profile projects. Idris Elba recently reprised his voice role as Knuckles in the television spinoff that expanded on the world introduced in the Sonic the Hedgehog movies. At the same time, Rebecca Ferguson stole the spotlight in Dune: Part Two, which remained the highest-grossing movie of the year until Inside Out 2 came along. After starring in Past Lives, Greta Lee continues her career with a story directed by the winner of two Academy Awards.
The title for Kathryn Bigelow’s next movie hasn’t been revealed by Netflix. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.
