Pitt & Apple Unite for 70s NYC Ironworker Tale
12 Nov
Summary
- Brad Pitt to star in and produce Connector, set in 70s NYC.
- Darius Marder to direct the film about a legendary ironworker.
- Apple Original Films partners with Pitt after F1 movie success.
Brad Pitt and Apple Original Films are teaming up again for "Connector," a new feature film starring Pitt and directed by Darius Marder. The project, based on a story by Derek Cianfrance, is set in 1970s New York and centers on a working-class ironworker who challenges powerful forces.
Penned by Darius and Nina Marder, "Connector" is in development, with Pitt producing through his Plan B banner. This collaboration marks another venture for Apple and Plan B following the success of "F1: The Movie." Marder's involvement follows his critically acclaimed directorial debut with "Sound of Metal."
Pitt is considering "Connector" as his next project, potentially shooting in 2027. Apple's deep relationship with Pitt's company, stemming from "F1" and "Wolves," made them a natural choice for distribution.
