Glen Powell is set to star in an upcoming film directed by Barry Jenkins, the acclaimed filmmaker behind the Oscar-winning “Moonlight” and the recent “Mufasa,” a variation of The Lion King. This new project will be a science fiction film.
Following his work on “Mufasa: The Lion King,” Barry Jenkins is diving into another ambitious project, this time in the science fiction genre. Details of the plot are still under wraps, but the project, titled “The Natural Order,” will be based on an upcoming novella by Matt Aldrich, soon to be published in the United States.
A Sci-Fi Thriller Focused on Eternal Life
The studio has preemptively acquired the rights to this book, which will explore a science fiction thriller centered on the theme of eternal life.
To lead the film, the highly sought-after actor Glen Powell has been chosen. Recently seen in Richard Linklater’s “Hit Man,” as well as in “Never Without You,” “Twisters,” and “Top Gun Maverick,” Powell is also slated to appear in the upcoming “The Running Man.”
