Charlie cast in the new untitled Noah Baumbach project

According to The Wrap, Charlie has been cast in the new film by ‘Marriage Story’ director Noah Baumbach for Netflix. Not much is known about the project at this time, but you can read more at the link.

Noah Baumbach’s upcoming, untitled Netflix film was already starry enough with a cast anchored by George Clooney, Adam Sandler, Laura Dern, Billy Crudup and Riley Keough.

But they’re getting company in the form of a whole host of new cast members, including Baumbach’s partner in life and in film Greta Gerwig, Jim Broadbent, Patrick Wilson and Emily Mortimer (who also co-wrote the script).

Lars Eidnger, Grace Edwards, Patsy Ferran, Isla Fisher, Thaddea Graham, Josh Hamilton, Eve Hewson, Stacy Keach, Nicôle Lecky, Louis Partridge, Alba Rohrwacher and Charlie Rowe also join the cast.

No details for the film, which Baumbach co-wrote and will direct, have emerged. (Production List only describes it as “a funny and emotional coming-of-age story about adults.”) Baumbach also produces alongside Amy Pascal and David Heyman.

Filming began on the untitled project earlier this month, with production splitting time between New York City and London.

Wolf Hall: The Mirror and the Light picks up in May, 1536. Anne Boleyn, Henry’s second wife, is dead. As the axe drops, Thomas Cromwell emerges from the bloodbath to continue his climb to power and wealth, while his formidable master, Henry, settles to short-lived happiness with his third queen, Jane Seymour.

Cromwell, a man with only his wits to rely on, has no great family to back him, and no private army. Navigating the moral complexities that accompany the exercise of power in this brutal and bloody time, Cromwell is caught between his desire to do what is right and his instinct to survive. But in the wake of Henry VIII having executed his queen, no one is safe.

Despite rebellion at home, traitors plotting abroad and the threat of invasion testing Henry’s regime to breaking point, Cromwell’s robust imagination sees a new country in the mirror of the future. All of England lies at his feet, ripe for innovation and religious reform. But as fortune’s wheel turns, Cromwell’s enemies are gathering in the shadows.

The inevitable question remains: how long can anyone survive under Henry’s cruel and
capricious gaze?
