Jennifer Lawrence Provides Update on New Martin Scorsese Movie
Jennifer Lawrence confirmed that What Happens at Night, directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, will begin filming in 2026.
About the Film
The movie, marking the 27th feature film in Scorsese’s career, follows an American couple traveling to a snowy European city with plans to adopt a baby. Their journey takes a mysterious turn as strange events unfold.
What Happens at Night is adapted from Peter Cameron’s acclaimed 2020 novel of the same name. The story introduces diverse characters, including “an ancient, flamboyant chanteuse,” “a debauched businessman,” and “an enigmatic faith healer.”
“Nothing is as it seems in this baffling, frozen world, and the more the couple struggles to claim their baby, the less they seem to know about their marriage, themselves, and life itself.”
Production Details
Aside from confirming DiCaprio and Lawrence as leads, no additional casting details have been revealed. Lawrence shared with IndieWire that filming is likely to start around January or February, though she remains cautiously optimistic:
“Hopefully, a January/February situation. But one never knows with these things. I’ll believe it when I’m there. Leo and I worked together on Don’t Look Up.”
Lawrence expressed excitement about reuniting with Leonardo DiCaprio for this project after their previous collaboration.
Summary
This eagerly awaited Martin Scorsese film combines mystery and drama, promising an intriguing narrative centered on a couple’s complex journey in a surreal setting.
