Will Poulter, Kit Connor, Cosmo Jarvis, and D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai are reportedly in talks to star in Alex Garland’s new A24 war movie.
According to Jeff Sneider’s The InSneider, Poulter, Connor, Jarvis, and Woon-A-Tai are all in various stages of negotiations to join Garland and Ray Mendoza’s new, still untitled war movie for A24.
Deadline previously reported that Stranger Things and The Fantastic Four’s Joseph Quinn was in talks to appear in the movie opposite May December’s Charles Melton. According to Sneider, Quinn and Melton are both “set to star” in the movie at this point in time.
The movie, which is co-directed and co-written by Garland and Mendoza, is being produced by Peter Rice, Andrew Macdonald, and Allon Reich. Plot details remain under wraps at this time.
Garland and Mendoza recently collaborated on Civil War, which releases in United States theaters on April 12, 2024. Garland wrote and directed the movie, while Mendoza served as the military supervisor.
