According to The Hollywood Reporter, “Alana Haim has lined up two back to back feature gigs involving some bold-faced names.” What is interesting is that they have confirmed that Rob will start in The Drama with Zendaya:
“Haim has started production on The Mastermind, an art heist drama starring Josh O’Connor and directed by Kelly Reichardt. She will then jump into The Drama, a feature from Dream Scenario filmmaker Kristoffer Borgli that also stars Zendaya and Robert Pattinson.”
According to IMDB, filming is rumoured to commence on Monday 21 October 2024 with filming locations in Singapore, Tokyo, London, Paris and Boston. As we know, I’m not going to get excited until we actually see or hear that Rob is on set, but Zendaya is most definitely in Boston.
Zendaya was photographed on Newbury Street in Back Bay earlier this week, reportedly in Boston to film a new movie with Robert Pattinson. https://t.co/WcCQZEsXfz

According to Film Crave and the casting call below, looks like Rob will have a short break from filming Die, My Love in Calgary to filming “The Drama” with Zendaya if all reports are true that Rob is indeed involved. Nothing on A24’s site as yet, but it’s still early days.

Seems to be raining “new project” or “potential projects” for Rob. Feels like the old days where we patiently waited for new movie news for Rob … I’ve been blogging about Rob for over 14 years and so many have not come to fruition, but it is always interesting to see what potential project Rob is considering becoming involved with. This week Deadline reported:
Following the acclaim of his most recent film Dream Scenario, director Kristoffer Borgli is reuniting with A24 and looks to have landed two of the town’s biggest names to star in his next film. Sources tell Deadline that A24 is set to finance and produce Borgli’s The Drama, with Zendaya and Robert Pattinson in early negotiations to star. Borgli will direct from a script he wrote.
Ari Aster, Lars Knudsen and Tyler Campellone will produce under their Square Peg banner. Project details are under wraps, but rumors suggest it’s about a romance that takes an unexpected turn before a couple’s big day.
…
Following the Dream Scenario success last fall, A24 was high on working with Borgli again, but the project gained serious momentum after Zendaya showed a strong interest in starring. Pattinson followed later and, while deals still need to close, the project has now become a top priority at the studio.
