In discussions for key roles: Oscar winner Cillian Murphy (from the film Oppenheimer) and Daniel Craig (known for Knives Out), both are in talks with renowned director Damien Chazelle for an unnamed movie. The specifics about their characters and the storyline remain confidential, but it’s said that this project will unfold within a prison setting.
In more straightforward terms: Murphy’s latest acting venture was the historical drama “Small Things Like These,” where he also served as a producer, released last year. Currently, he is set to reappear as Thomas Shelby in the Peaky Blinders movie, titled The Immortal Man, and as Jim in Nia DaCosta’s film 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple. Craig, meanwhile, featured in the romantic drama “Queer,” led by Luca Guadagnino last year. He will again play Detective Benoit Blanc in the upcoming Netflix movie Knives Out, titled Wake Up Dead Man.
Who is involved in Cillian Murphy & Daniel Craig’s upcoming prison movie?
The upcoming movie, yet unnamed, will be penned and helmed by Chazelle, renowned for his work on critically-acclaimed films like Whiplash, La La Land, and First Man. His direction of the Emma Stone-led musical drama earned him the title of the youngest filmmaker to receive an Oscar Award for Best Director. This is his return to directing a feature film after a gap of three years following Babylon’s underperformance at the box office.
Furthermore, Chazelle and Olivia Hamilton (through their production company, Will Chickens Productions) are also taking charge of the project’s production. If contracts with Murphy and Craig are signed off, it’s expected that filming for the yet-unnamed movie could start as early as this year.
