In a bit of a coincidental twist, this will be the second straight film that Lanthimos works with Stone, Dafoe, and Qualley. The trio of actors are also set to appear in Lanthimos’ next film, Poor Things, which is set to premiere sometime in 2023. For Lanthimos and Searchlight Pictures, this will also be another entry in their ongoing partnership, as the studio worked with Lanthimos on 2018’s The Favourite as well as the upcoming Poor Things.
