The project will feature her first substantial film role since Avengers: Endgame back in 2019.

While plot details are being kept under wraps, the pic has been reported as being loosely inspired by pro ping pong player Marty Reisman. At the same time, sources close to the production stress that it’s a fictionalized original, rather than a biopic. It’s unclear for the moment who Paltrow will be playing.

Safdie and Ronald Bronstein penned the script and will produce alongside Eli Bush, Anthony Katagas, Chalamet and A24.

For Safdie, who saw A24 produce and/or distribute his and brother Benny’s acclaimed films Uncut Gems and Good Time , Marty Supreme marks the first solo outing since 2008’s The Pleasure of Being Robbed . He comes to the project following the revelation not too long ago that he and his brother have split off to pursue solo directing careers, while continuing to produce together through their Elara Pictures.
