Michael Cera is stepping into the director’s chair for his first full-length film, and he’s managed to gather an impressive group of actors, which EbMaster recognizes.
The popular actor, recognized for his work in “Barbie,” “Superbad,” “Scott Pilgrim vs. The World,” and “Arrested Development,” is slated to direct “Love is Not the Answer.” This film features an impressive cast that includes Pamela Anderson from “The Last Showgirl,” Steve Coogan from “Philomena,” Fred Hechinger who will be seen in “Gladiator 2,” and Jamie Dornan known for his role in “Belfast.” The production company, mk2 Films, is set to introduce this project at Cannes.
The storyline of this movie remains secret, but it’s been labeled as a “sharply unexpected, absurdly humorous comedy that transitions seamlessly from laughter to tears as it delves into the themes of contemporary solitude and the pursuit of companionship.
The script for “Love is Not the Answer” was written by Cera, collaborating with up-and-coming music sensations 2am, headed by Christine D’Souza Gelb, David Hinojosa, and Kevin Rowe. They are responsible for projects like “Bodies, Bodies, Bodies,” “Past Lives,” “Babygirl,” Celine Song’s upcoming “Materialists,” and “The Moment” featuring Charli xcx. The international rights are being managed by mk2 Films, while 2am and CAA Media Finance will take care of North America.
Ceri himself is expected to be present at Cannes for the screening of Wes Anderson’s highly anticipated film “The Phoenician Scheme,” a production that boasts a stellar cast consisting of Benicio del Toro, Mia Goth, Riz Ahmed, Tom Hanks, Bryan Cranston, Scarlett Johansson, and Benedict Cumberbatch.
Previously unmentioned, Cera expressed his ambition to direct films, and in 2023 he confirmed that he had been developing an adaptation of the book “Masters of Atlantis” penned by Charles Portis.
In addition to the film “Love is Not the Answer,” mk2 Films’ lineup for Cannes 2025 features six films in the official competition. These include Joachim Trier’s “Sentimental Value,” a follow-up to his acclaimed work “The Worst Person in the World”; Kleber Mendonça Filho’s political thriller titled “The Secret Agent”; Mascha Schilinski’s film named “Sound of Falling”; Hafsia Herzi’s production called “The Little Sister”; and Carla Simón’s movie entitled “Romería.
