two projects from A24, the independent production company: “Mother Mary,” starring Anne Hathaway and Michaela Coel, and “Death of a Unicorn,” starring Paul Rudd and Jenna Ortega, which is set to begin shooting soon in Hungary.
The projects also include “The Rivals of Amziah King,” starring Matthew McConaughey, “Flight Risk,” starring Mark Wahlberg and directed by Mel Gibson, “Dust Bunny” starring Mads Mikkelsen and Sigourney Weaver, “Bride Hard” with Rebel Wilson, and “The Chosen,” a TV series about the life of Jesus. On Tuesday, the union posted a list of the 39 projects approved so far. Some of the projects are already completed, but need to obtain a waiver in order for the actors to do promotion.
Duncan Crabtree-Ireland, the union’s executive director, said on a conference call Tuesday that actors are actively encouraged to participate in such projects.
