‘Drama’, A24-Style: Zendaya and Robert Pattinson in Talks to Star in New Film from ‘Dream Scenario’ Director
If the production team behind Hereditary and Midsommar is making a film about a couple’s “big day,” expect plenty of drama (and probably a lot of tragedy.)
Zendaya and Robert Pattinson are in talks to headline The Drama from director Kristoffer Borgli, who helmed Dream Scenario with Nicolas Cage. The movie is allegedly about a romance that takes an unexpected turn before a couple’s big day (their wedding?) More details about the film are not known at this time.
Ari Aster, Lars Knudsen and Tyler Campellone will produce under their Square Peg banner. Previous collaborations with A24 include Hereditary, Midsommar, and Dream Scenario. Upcoming films for A24 and Square Peg include Death of a Unicorn starring Paul Rudd and Jenna Ortega and Eddington starring Joaquin Phoenix, Pedro Pascal and Emma Stone.
While in production talks, the project gained serious momentum after Zendaya showed a strong interest in starring, according to Deadline. Pattinson followed later and, while deals still need to close, the project has now become a top priority at the studio.
