Jenna Ortega and Glen Powell in JJ Abrams' next film?

The director of Super 8 is preparing a top secret project at Warner, with two of the most sought-after stars of the moment.

Deadline reports that JJ Abrams is well and truly back at work, with a project at Warner… about which we know nothing at all for the moment. Except for the first two names in the cast: Jenna Ortega And Glen Powellalready announced last May in the film's credits. The star of Wednesday And Screamand the charming cowboy of Top Gun: Maverick And Twisters. Great idea, everyone agrees.

The question is what it is! The director of Star Trek And Super 8 hasn't done anything since Star Wars Episode 9, The Rise of Skywalker. Deadline reports that Abrams has written the script for this mystery film, which is not a time-travel movie. Why the precision? We don't know, but last year, Bad Robot, Warner and Appian Way (Leonardo DiCaprio's studio) were ready to adapt the B-novel into a filmilly summers (the twisted story of a hitman who poses as a writer) by Stephen King, released in 2021. It seems, however, that Abrams' new project is a completely original work.

Otherwise, we will find Glen Powell in the new adaptation of Running Man by Edgar Wright based on Stephen King. which is about to start filming. And before finding Jenna Ortega in season 2 of Mercredi, you can see her in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, the sequel to you-know-what, on September 11 in France.
