Adam Driver, Cate Blanchett, and more are starring in Jim Jarmusch’s new family drama movie, Father Mother Sister Brother.
Per Variety, Jarmusch’s new movie is currently in post-production in New York while the Match Factory is handling international sales for Father Mother Sister Brother at the Cannes Film Market.
Along with Driver and Blanchett, Father Mother Sister Brother stars Vicky Krieps (Phantom Thread), Mayim Bialik (The Big Bang Theory), Tom Waits (The Ballad of Buster Scruggs), Charlotte Rampling (Dune: Part One), Indya Moore (Escape Room), and Luka Sabbat (Grown-ish).
What is Jim Jarmusch’s Father Mother Sister Brother about?
“Three separate stories all concern the relationships between adult children, their somewhat distant parent (or parents), and each other,” the official synopsis reads. “Each of the three parts takes place in the present, and each in a different country. Father is set in the Northeast U.S., Mother in Dublin, Ireland, and Sister Brother in Paris, France. The film is a series of character studies, quiet, observational, and non-judgmental. A comedy, but interwoven with threads of melancholy.”
Charles Gillibert, Joshua Astrachan, Carter Logan, and Attila Yücer produced the film, while Richard Bolger and Conor Barry serve as co-producers.
Jarmusch is known for making movies such as 1984’s Stranger Than Paradise, 1989’s Mystery Train, 1991’s Night on Earth, 1996’s Dead Man, 1999’s Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai, 2003’s Coffee and Cigarettes (which starred Blanchett), 2013’s Only Lovers Left Alive, and 2016’s Paterson (which starred Driver).
His most recent film was 2019’s The Dead Don’t Die, an absurdist zombie flick that starred Driver, Bill Murray, Tilda Swinton, Steve Buscemi, and more.
Father Mother Sister Brother does not yet have an official United States release date at this time.
