Amy Adams has been tapped to star in At the Sea, a new drama movie from Pieces of a Woman’s Kornél Mundruczó.
Per The Hollywood Reporter, Adams has been tapped to star in Mundruczó’s At the Sea. The movie is expected to begin filming this June in Boston.
What is At the Sea about?
“The film follows the life of Laura (Adams) after a long rehabilitation, as she returns to her family at their beach holiday home where she has to readjust to the complicated life she left behind,” the synopsis reads. “Now she is forced to face the following next chapter of her life without the career that gave her fame, fortune, and, most importantly, identity.”
At the Sea is based on an original screenplay by Kata Wéber. Mundruczó is producing the movie alongside Alexander Rodnyansky, Stuart Manashil, Aaron Ryder, Andrew Swett, Alex Lebovici, Jon Oakes, and Viktória Petrányi. Zsofi Oblath and Rachel Rubin serve as co-producers, while Paul J. Diaz, Maria Breese, Lee Broda, Jeff Rice, and Michael Kupisk are executive producers.
Pieces of a Woman was released on Netflix in January 2021. Vanessa Kirby received a Best Actress nomination at the Academy Awards for her role in the film, which also starred Shia LaBeouf, Ellen Burstyn, Molly Parker, and Sarah Snook.
Mundruczó is also known for directing 2005’s Johanna, 2008’s Delta, 2010’s Tender Son, 2014’s White God, 2017’s Jupiter’s Moon, and, most recently, Evolution, which screened at the Cannes Film Festival in 2021. He also directed the pilot episode of The Crowded Room starring Tom Holland and Amanda Seyfried.
Adams most recently starred in 2022’s Disenchanted, the Disney+ sequel to 2007’s Enchanted. She’ll next be seen in the horror comedy Nightbitch, which releases in December 2024, and is also attached to star in Taika Waititi’s next movie, Klara and the Sun.
At the Sea does not yet have an official release date.
