The actor is in final negotiations to star in A24’s upcoming feature Marty Supreme , The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed. Plot details are under wraps, but the movie is said to be a fictionalized original work.

Safdie is set to helm the film from a script he co-wrote with Ronald Bronstein. Producers include Safdie, Chalamet, Bronstein, Eli Bush and Anthony Katagas.

The project reunites Safdie with A24 after the company produced his two most recent films, Good Time (2017) and Uncut Gems (2019), both of which he co-directed with his brother Benny Safdie. The Safdies are no longer planning to co-direct projects but continue to produce together through their company Elara Pictures. Bronstein has writing credits on both the Robert Pattinson-led Good Time and the Adam Sandler-starring Uncut Gems .

Marty Supreme is reported to involve ping-pong, and A24 seemed to confirm that with a teaser image, which can be seen below. “Josh Safdie’s MARTY SUPREME starring @RealChalamet . Coming soon,” the company’s official X (formerly Twitter) account posted .
