Australian director Justin Kurzel is hit and miss for me, I loved “Nitram” and “Snowtown,” but was no fan of 2019’s “True History Of The Kelly Gang,” and his “MacBeth.” Don’t even ask about his adaptation of “Assassin’s Creed.”
Regardless, his Cannes-winning “Nitram” got me excited for whatever he does next, and it looks as though it’ll be a project titled “The Order,” with Jude Law and Nicholas Hoult to star. It’s supposed to be an investigative thriller based on a true story.
The script is reportedly from Zach Baylin (King Richard) and is adapted from Kevin Flynn and Gary Gerhardt’s book “The Silent Brotherhood”, which follows the real-life evebts of a white supremacist domestic terrorist group in the 1980s in the Pacific Northwest.
Law will play the Idaho-based FBI agent tracking down the group, led by Hoult’s character. Don’t expect this one until 2024 since shooting has been set for much later this year, potentially in late summer.
Jeremy Strong is at it again. During the ‘Social Reckoning’ shoot he treated his co-stars "the way he imagined" Mark Zuckerberg would treat them. Strong, of course, plays the Meta CEO in the film.
