Millie Brady, known for the BBC/Netflix series “The Last Kingdom” and recently seen in Apple TV + offering “Surface,” will play the lead in Filip Jan Rymsza’s “Object Permanence,” Variety has learned exclusively.

The actor is cast as Brooke Brooks, a former supermodel who becomes a highly successful lifestyle mogul and the first person to ‘IPO’(Initial Public Offering) herself.

“Having commodified herself, Brooke is forced to confront her sense of self and the identity she has created,” said Rymsza, whose last film “Mosquito State” with Beau Knapp was shown at the Venice Film Festival, where it was noticed for Eric Koretz’s cinematography. He also produced acclaimed documentary “Hopper/Welles” and John Malkovich starrer “Valley of the Gods.”

“Millie is such a force: a transfixing union of vibrance, instinct and craft. I’m deeply inspired by the soulfulness of her interpretation,” Rymsza added.

Paris-based company’s documentary arm Wide House also achieved deals on Hot Docs title Bloom Up.

Paris-based sales company Wide Management has unveiled a slew of deals done at the European Film Market earlier this month.

It sold French director Julien Hilmoine’s erotic romance The Night Belongs To Lovers to Japan (At Entertainment) and the Cis (Russian Report). The film has also been acquired by Munich-based Alamode Film’s genre label Pierrot le Fou for German-speaking territories.

Mariusz Wilczyński’s film, which premiered in the Berlinale’s Encounters section earlier this year, is the first animation ever to win the Polish Film Festival. The Polish Film Festival usually takes place in September and kicks off the autumn slate of local theatrical film releases. This year, owing to the pandemic, it moved to early December and made use of virtual screening rooms. However, not all of the competition titles were available to holders of industry and press badges, including Małgorzata Szumowska and Michał Englert’s Oscar entry Never Gonna Snow Again and the eagerly awaited Magnesia by Maciej Bochniak, which premiered at the (on-site) Warsaw Film Festival in October. The jury, headed up by Lech Majewski (Valley of the Gods), watched all 14 films in cinemas, though, and deliberated for about seven hours before they reached an unprecedented, but very well received, verdict: the main award, the Golden Lions,...

Polish-born filmmaker Filip Jan Rymsza, the producer of Venice Film Festival entry “Hopper/Welles,” which he is presenting this week at Egypt’s El Gouna Film Festival, will follow his latest directorial outing “Mosquito State” – also a Venice premiere this year – with “Object Permanence,” Rymsza tells Variety. Partially set in Berlin and shot in English, it will be another Polish co-production, most likely with Germany.

“’Object permanence’ is something that people were aware of already, they just didn’t know how to define it: It’s the understanding that objects continue to exist even if you can’t see them or hear them, or otherwise sense them,” he says, adding that while “Mosquito State” looked at the recent past, this will look into the near future.

With another project, set in Japan, currently put on hold due to Covid-19 travel restrictions, Rymsza will once again try to focus on one protagonist.

You wait the best part of 30 years for one and then two come along at once…Orson Welles movies.

Pieced together from the 1,083 reels of footage for The Other Side Of The Wind (which debuted in 2018), Hopper/Welles is the latest ‘new’ feature from the industry titan, who died in 1985.

Ahead of its world premiere at the Venice Film Festival, we spoke to producer Filip Jan Rymsza about the backstory behind the movie, on which he re-teamed with The Other Side Of The Wind editor Bob Murawski (The Hurt Locker).

The intimate and revelatory documentary captures a 1970 meeting between the Citizen Kane director and the then-rising star Dennis Hopper, who had just made Easy Rider. The encounter came about when Hopper agreed to a cameo role in Welles’ troubled The Other Side Of The Wind. Welles flew Hopper from New Mexico to Los Angeles, where he cooked him a pasta...

The weekend is here, meaning that another batch of movies are arriving on VOD and the various streaming services to keep viewers occupied as the theatrical industry remains virtually locked down, and in keeping with the theme of the last few months, the list features a star-studded Netflix original, several titles that have been pulled from cinemas and sent straight to streaming instead, the standard batch of low-budget genre entries and additions to the content library of a freshly-launched platform.

There’s certainly no shortage of options for those who find themselves struggling to flip on something they’ve never seen before, which is a very real problem these days with viewership numbers for all streaming services surging across the board, as the effects of the Coronavirus pandemic continue to wreak havoc on everyday life but play right into the hands of the money men in the boardrooms at Netflix,...

Exclusive: French actress Bérénice Marlohe has inked with Buchwald.

She first came to international attention in the James Bond film Skyfall opposite Daniel Craig, as the enigmatic Bond Girl, Severine. The movie remains the highest grossing 007 feature of all-time with over $1.1 billion worldwide and was nominated for five Oscars, winning two, in particular the first Academy Award win ever for a Bond title song, Adele and Paul Epworth’s “Skyfall.”

Marlohe can next be seen in Lech Majewski’s surrealist drama Valley of the Gods opposite Josh Hartnett and John Malkovich from Well Go USA Entertainment. The film is set to debut on digital platforms and available on Blu-ray and DVD on Aug. 11.

Marlohe appears in the all-star cast of Terrence Malick’s Song to Song alongside Ryan Gosling, Rooney Mara, Michael Fassbender and Natalie Portman, as well as in Joe Miale’s sci-fi thriller Revolt opposite Lee Pace.

“Weird,” as a presumptive aesthetic and assumed attitude, has been plundered to the point of signifying almost nothing. Thus it was a little system shock bearing witness to Lech Majewski’s truly, madly, unfathomably weird Valley of the Gods at last year’s EnergaCAMERIMAGE, only knowing it concerned Native American mythology, John Malkovich as a reclusive trillionaire, and Josh Hartnett as his biographer “whose imagination has the power to alter reality.” That is not selling even one-third of it, which, if forced to compress to an elevator pitch, I would describe as somewhere between the existential concerns of The Tree of Life, Southland Tales‘ sci-fi satire, and the charming gaudiness of a late Alain Resnais picture. (It’s also produced by Kubrick compatriot Jan Harlan and features Keir Dullea in a supporting role; draw your conclusions as to its other allusions.)

So: precisely the kind of film one sees at...

Well Go USA has debuted a new trailer for the existential drama ‘Valley of the Gods’ featuring John Malkovich and Josh Hartnett.

Valley of the Gods contrasts abundance and poverty through three separate storylines, featuring a middle-class writer (Hartnett), an eccentric trillionaire (Malkovich), and a struggling Navajo community. Post-divorce, copywriter John Ecas undertakes the biography of the richest man on earth, who is dead-set on mining sacred lands for uranium. When modern advance runs afoul of long-dormant guardians from ancient legend, even the most unimaginable wealth may soon meet its match.

"What is it to have all that power?" Well Go USA has released an official trailer for a strange indie feature titled Valley of the Gods, made by a Polish filmmaker named Lech Majewski. This first premiered at the Gdynia Polish Film Festival last year, and it screened at the Warsaw and Camerimage Film Festivals also in Poland. The film entwines Navajo lore with a reclusive trillionaire and his would-be biographer, creating a fascinating, mysterious and idiosyncratic vision of America. With three storylines following a middle-class writer, an eccentric trillionaire, and a struggling Navajo community under existential threat. Starring John Malkovich as Wes Tauros, and a main cast including Josh Hartnett, Bérénice Marlohe, Jaime Ray Newman, John Rhys-Davies, Keir Dullea, Saginaw Grant, and Joseph Runningfox. Whoaaa - this looks especially compelling and more than a bit trippy, almost like a Polish Jodorowsky film about America. Here's the first official trailer...

Well Go USA has acquired the North American rights to Lech Majewski’s Valley of the Gods. The company is set to release the surrealist drama starring Josh Hartnett and John Malkovich in theaters and on digital platforms on August 11.

Known for pushing the envelope when it comes to dreamlike visuals and fantasy, Majewski’s Valley of the Gods contrasts opposing social extremes — namely abundance and poverty – through three separate storylines. The story follows a middle-class writer, an eccentric trillionaire and members of a struggling nearby Navajo community. After a difficult divorce, copywriter John Ecas (Harnett) takes on the biography of the richest man on earth (John Malkovich), who is both his boss and the man behind a plan to mine sacred Navajo lands for uranium. Things take a turn when modern advancement runs afoul of the...

Torun, Poland – In his latest work, “The Valley of the Gods,” director Lech Majewski explores the ancient mythology of a downtrodden people and the absurd wealth of the world’s richest man in a surreal vision of modern America. The film screened at the EnergaCamerimage Intl. Film Festival as part of special showcase honoring Majewski, who received the Special Camerimage Directing Award. “Valley of the Gods,” which stars Josh Hartnett, John Malkovich, Keir Dullea, Bérénice Marlohe and John Rhys-Davies, presents the clash between the ancient civilization of the Navajo and the ultra-modern, high-tech world of multi-billionaires. The Navajo “live in really very harsh conditions and their territory is surrounded by this super civilization, the Roman Empire of today, with this epitome of technical innovation,” Majewski told Variety. “I don’t know whether there is another place in the world that has this kind of absolute opposite sides.” Majewski contrasted his...

Lech Majewski, the Polish film and theater director and writer, will be the recipient of the Directing Award at the Camerimage International Film Festival, which will take place in Torun, Poland, on Nov. 9-16.

Known for helming such films “The Mill and the Cross” and “The Garden of Earthly Delights,” Majewski is a dual U.S. and Polish citizen. In addition to his work in film, he’s also a composer, poet and painter. His installations have been exhibited in multiple countries.

Majewski’s upcoming picture “Valley of the Gods” stars Josh Hartnett, John Malkovich, Bérénice Marlohe, Keir Dullea and John Rhys-Davies. It explores an idiosyncratic and mysterious vision of America and will be introduced by the director at a special Camerimage screening.

The director’s work is nothing if not eclectic. 2010’s “The Mill and the Cross” is a cinematic re-creation and reimagining of Pieter Bruegel the Elder’s...

Somehow not a low-budget, Croatia-shot thriller, To the Bone has added Keanu Reeves to its cast. The feature debut of writer-director Marti Noxon, it’ll see him star opposite Lily Collins, playing “Dr. William Beckham, the doctor with an unorthodox style who pushes Ellen (Collins) to choose life and commit to getting better.” Being that this comes from the helmer’s own experiences, one expects something a cut above the standard afterschool special. [Deadline]

Meanwhile, Guillermo del Toro‘s Cold War romance is coming together quickly: after adding Octavia Spencer and Sally Hawkins about two weeks back, the production’s snagged Michael Stuhlbarg for negotiations about a role. As previously reported, it concerns an “otherworldly love story set against the backdrop of Cold War-era America circa 1963” — and that’s all we currently know. [THR]
