Challengers star Josh O’Connor is set to star in The Mastermind, the next feature film of acclaimed director Kelly Reichardt. The film, which is bankrolled by MUBI, centres around an audacious art heist amidst the backdrop of the Vietnam War, according to news outlet Deadline.
Reichardt, known for her minimalist, character-driven films, will write and direct the film with production expected to start sometime this year.
The filmmaker’s movies such as Old Joy, Meek’s Cutoff, Certain Women, First Cow and Showing Up, have often explored the lives of individuals on the fringes of society in the American landscape, especially in the Pacific Northwest.
The Mastermind will be produced by Neil Kopp, Anish Savjani, and Vincent Savino of filmscience. MUBI will distribute in select territories, retaining rights in North America, UK, Ireland, Latin America, Germany, Austria, Benelux, Turkey, and India.
