Back in August, we learned that director Ira Sachs (“Passages”) was going to be directing “Peter Hujar’s Day” with actor Ben Whishaw. The film was supposed to start production in November, but got delayed due to the strikes. Deadline is only now reporting on this and billing it as an “exclusive.” It’s not.
Netflix and Skydance Animation have also called it quits. The two sides announced Monday that they're ending the animated film deal struck back in 2023, framing it as a mutual decision.
