Deadline’s Justin Kroll is reporting that the new Safdies Brothers film, which I had some intel on a few weeks ago, will revolve around the “high end sports card collecting” world. That very much sounds like a Safdies movie.
Adam Sandler will star in the film which is said to be shooting in “late winter” 2023, which probably means a fall 2023 or 2024 release:
Sandler collaborated with Benny and Josh Safdie for A24’s brilliant “Uncut Gems” in 2019. This was another essential addition to the Safdies canon after “Heaven Knows What,” and “Good Time.” This latest one will surely be worth the wait.
As I had mentioned, this latest Safdies joint will not be produced by A24, but instead Netflix. Timothee Chalamet is rumoured to be part of the cast, but nothing has been confirmed to me about that. He could very well not be in the movie, but he did have a meeting with the Safdies a month ago.
