As a movie enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share that A24 is set to unveil “Eddington,” the latest chilling masterpiece from director Ari Aster, at the European Film Market in Berlin this month. This captivating tale boasts an impressive ensemble cast, including Joaquin Phoenix, Pedro Pascal, Emma Stone, Austin Butler, Deirdre O’Connell, Micheal Ward, and Clifton Collins Jr., all of whom are currently bringing this production to life during post-production. I can’t wait to witness the magic on the big screen!

The narrative unfolds around a pair who find themselves trapped in a quaint New Mexico village amidst the COVID-19 crisis. Initially, the residents appear friendly, but as darkness descends, events take an ominous turn. Phoenix assumes the role of the town’s sheriff, a man brimming with lofty aspirations.

In this movie, Aster, along with his partner Lars Knudsen under their production company Square Peg, both wrote, directed, and produced the film. Renowned cameraman Darius Khondji took charge of the visual aspects.

Six projects now mark the joint ventures of Aster’s Square Peg and A24. Previously, they teamed up for movies such as “Hereditary,” “Midsommar,” “Beau Is Afraid,” and “Dream Scenario.” Their upcoming collaborations include “Death of a Unicorn,” “The Drama,” and “Primetime.
