Yorgos Lanthimos‘ follow-up to 2018’s “The Favourite,” “Poor Things,” is still in post-production and will mostly likely be released next year. However, Lanthimos is already set to shoot his next one.
A report from Deadline is saying that Lanthimos will again team up with Searchlight Pictures for the fifth time for a film titled “AND.” Curiously, the film stars much of the same main cast as “Poor Things.
Principal photography on “AND” begins in New Orleans this October, but plot details have been kept under wraps. The cast will include Emma Stone, Willem Dafoe, Margaret Qualley, and Jesse Plemons.
Lanthimos, much like Wes Anderson, might be releasing two movies next year. “AND” is set film until December, then Lanthimos will have 12 months of post-production to make sure it gets released in 2023.
As for “Poor Things,” I broke the news during the summer that it was delayed until next year. I’m not sure exactly what the reason for that delay was.
