Jude Law And Carrie Coon On For The Nest

Because they're not busy enough already separately, Jude Law and Carrie Coon have signed on to a new drama. They'll star for Martha Marcy May Marlene director Sean Durkin's The Nest.

Durkin also wrote the script for the film, which is described as part psychological thriller and part family drama.Law will play Rory, an ambitious British entrepreneur who brings his American wife (Coon) and kids with him to England on the hunt for new business opportunities.

Swapping suburban America for archaic '80s Britain, they aim to live beyond their means in an English manor house. The isolation pushes the family further apart and plunges them all into self-destructive cycles, with no one sure that their relationships will survive.

FilmNation Entertainment and BBC Films are backing the drama, which will be selling international rights at the Cannes Film Festival. Law has plenty of films on the way, including Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes Of Grindelwald (due out 16 November). Coon is Proxima Midnight in Avengers: Infinity War, which has just arrived (and we reviewed right here).
