Movie debuts December 30 on Netflix
Noah Baumbach's latest Netflix feature and follow-up to 2019's Marriage Story is an adaptation of Don DeLillo's darkly comedic (and presumed to be unfilmable) 1985 novel that reunites the writer-director with two of his frequent collaborators: Adam Driver (here, playing Jack Gladney, the midwestern college professor of Hitler studies who serves as the protagonist of book and film) and Greta Gerwig (who plays Jack's wife, Babette). Together with their children, they are forced to flee their home after an “airborne toxic event” and grapple with the possibility of happiness in the midst of death, drug addiction, infidelity, and consumerism. Don Cheadle, André 3000, Alessandro Nivola, and Jodie Turner-Smith also star in the 1980s-set film, which features a new song by LCD Soundsystem.
