As a long-time admirer of Hollywood, I can confidently say that the pairing of Austin Butler and Edward Berger in The Barrier is nothing short of a dream collaboration. Butler, with his diverse resume spanning from Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide to Elvis, and Berger, fresh off the success of All Quiet on the Western Front, are poised to create something truly extraordinary.
Austin Butler is set to star in and produce, along with Edward Berger, the time travel feature film titled “The Barrier“. With elements reminiscent of both Interstellar and Top Gun, this project has generated a great deal of buzz as American audiences gear up for Thanksgiving celebrations. It’s expected to trigger a production house bidding war among those eager to secure the rights.

Hollywood heavyweight Butler and sought-after director Berger are said to be teaming up for “The Barrier,” a full-length film based on a short story by MacMillan Hedges. Berger will be taking charge of the project, using a screenplay written by Hedges himself.
Recently, Butler has been spotted in various roles. He starred in the Apple TV+ war drama miniseries Masters of the Air and played Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen in Denis Villeneuve’s upcoming film Dune: Part Two. Additionally, he was nominated for an Oscar for his role as the iconic rock and roll figure in Baz Luhrmann’s 2022 biographical drama Elvis.
Born in Anaheim, California, Butler entered the entertainment world during the 2000s. It’s rumored that his first job was an unaccredited role as Zippy Brewster in the Nickelodeon live-action sitcom Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide. Following this, he worked on shows like Life Unexpected, Switched at Birth, The Carrie Diaries, and The Shannara Chronicles. Butler made his cinematic debut with the 2009 film Aliens in the Attic, and since then, he’s been seen in Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and Jeff Nichols’ The Bikeriders.
Edward Berger gained international recognition with his 2022 anti-war film All Quiet on the Western Front. This movie was praised by critics worldwide and garnered numerous awards, including four Oscars for Best International Feature Film, Best Cinematography, Best Production Design, and Best Original Score. His latest production, Conclave, made its debut at the 51st Telluride Film Festival on August 30, 2024, and has received exceptional reviews as well.
