Hello, film buffs! We’ve got some exciting movie news to talk about. Today, we’re diving into the details of a film set for 2025. Can you guess who’s starring? We’ll give you a hint— one of them is a favorite Aussie actress, and the other an acclaimed Irish actor.
Sony’s Upcoming Release: A Curious Tale of Two Strangers
Yes, we’re talking about Margot Robbie and Colin Farrell! They’re featuring in an upcoming movie creatively titled ‘A Big Bold Beautiful Journey’. This film is set for release by Sony on May 9, 2025.
Let’s go back a bit. You might remember Kogonada, the movie whizz behind this project. He’s directed some fantastic films before. His last work, ‘After Yang’, did pretty well at the Cannes 2021 Film Festival in the Un Certain Regard section. But looks like, this time, Kogonada’s latest won’t be screening there next year. Why, you ask? Well, the movie’s release date will sadly make it ineligible for attendance as Cannes only kicks off on May 13.
GPS Adventures, Time Travel, and Romance
As of now, the story behind ‘A Big Bold Beautiful Journey’ is mostly a secret. However, we do know it revolves around two strangers who meet at a wedding. They then embark on a GPS-driven adventure together. Sounds fun, right? Now add a hint of time travel and sprinkle some romance, and you’ve got a wholesome film to look forward to. The film wrapped up production last June.
Imperative Entertainment is the powerhouse producing this adventurous ride. Plus, it’s taken inspiration from an original script by Seth Reiss, known for his creative vision in ‘The Menu’.
Kogonada: An Auteur worth Following
If you’ve followed Kogonada’s work, you’ll know he’s had a fascinating career. From a mysterious video essayist to a full-fledged filmmaker, he definitely knows how to make a mark. His debut film ‘Columbus’, released in 2017, gathered quite a fan base. He continued the streak with ‘After Yang’ in 2021, starring Colin Farrell, Jodie Turner-Smith, and the stunning Haley Lu Richardson.
Now, critics had mixed feelings about ‘After Yang’. It was a quiet, thoughtful sci-fi film that was overflowing with ideas. Some thought it had too many ideas and lacked execution. But hey, isn’t art all about personal interpretation? Anyway, despite the reviewers’ split decision, one thing is crystal clear. Kogonada has a knack for innovative storytelling. It looks like ‘A Big Bold Beautiful Journey’ will bring something unique to the table.
While we wait for the movie to hit the screens, we’ll be on the lookout for any further updates. Meanwhile, mark the date, May 9, 2025, grab some popcorn, and get ready for a ‘Big Bold Beautiful Journey’. Let’s hope it lives up to its catchy title. Stay tuned for more exciting movie talk!
