Gordon-Levitt and T-Street felt Netflix was the right creative home for the package after they blew away senior creative executives, who were fully on board with the Inception star turned filmmaker’s vision. Aside from having the last two Knives Out movies, Netflix was also in business with T-Street after acquiring their erotic noir Fair Play out of Sundance 2023.
Storyline is under wraps for the AI movie which is being produced by Rian Johnson and Ram Bergman’s T-Street. Gordon-Levitt has been passionately outspoken about AI, and wrote the script with Kieran Fitzgerald. Both share ‘story by’ credit with Natasha Lyonne. Fitzgerald wrote the 2016 Oliver Stone movie Snowden which Gordon-Levitt starred in.
Next for McAdams is the upcoming Sam Raimi directed genre movie Send Help at 20th Century Studios. Her cinematic canon includes star-making turns in Mean Girls, The Notebook, About Time, Disobedience, Game Night, Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret, and on stage in Mary Jane. The actress is repped by Magnolia Entertainment, WME and attorney Howard Fishman.
The latest from Gordon-Levitt reteams him with T-Street. Gordon-Levitt starred in Rian Johnson’s 2005 feature diretorial debut Brick, in addition to the filmmaker’s cult sci-fi movie Looper. T-Street’s Bergman produced Gordon-Levitt’s 2013 feature directorial debut, Don Jon, with Johnson also giving feedback on the script and reviewing multiple cuts of the film.
T-Street’s third Knives Out movie from Netflix, Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, bows in theaters on Nov. 26 before streaming on Dec. 12.
