On Monday, HBO Max announced that they have picked up the rights to award-winning director and producer Steven Soderbergh’s next movie.
It’s not the first time the movie maker has made a deal with a streaming service. He has already worked with Netflix for High-Flying Bird earlier this year and has another movie lined up for the streaming platform.
The upcoming comedy tentatively titled Let Them All Talk tells the story of a celebrated author who takes a journey with some old friends to have some fun and heal old wounds. Her nephew comes along to wrangle the ladies and finds himself involved with a young literary agent.
It stars the three-time Oscar winner Meryl Streep (as the author) who has already worked for Soderbergh on The Laundromat. She’s joined by Candice Berge, Dianne Wiest, Lucas Hedges and Gemma Chang. The film’s production started last week in New York and will continue the Queen Mary 2 ocean liner, and also in the UK.
HBO Max is due to launch in the spring of 2020 and we already know they have planned a Gossip Girl reboot and a drama series inspired by Greek mythology titled Circle. We also know they’ve signed Reese Witherspoon and Greg Berlanti to production deals.
