Fox Searchlight Pictures has acquired worldwide rights to writer-director Chloé Zhao’s road drama “Nomadland,” starring Frances McDormand.

The film follows McDormand’s Oscar-winning role in Searchlight’s “Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri.” David Strathairn, Linda May, and Charlene Swankie also star.

“Nomadland” is a Highwayman Films, Hear/Say Productions, and Cor Cordium Productions project. The film is produced by McDormand, Peter Spears, Mollye Asher, Dan Janvey, and Zhao.

The movie follows a woman in her sixties, who after losing everything in the Great Recession, embarks on a journey through the American West, living as a van-dwelling modern-day nomad.

“As I fell in love with the American west, it was impossible not to become fascinated with the roads that lead to the many adventures beyond the horizon,” Zhao said. “I’m very fortunate to be able to hit the road with a talented team and collaborate with a cast of professional and non-professional actors who are deeply giving and inspiring. I can’t wait to share their stories and what we’ve discovered along the way.”

Zhao also used non-professional actors in her indie drama “The Rider.”

The deal was brokered by Fox Searchlight’s Megan O’Brien with WME, UTA, and Lichter Grossman on behalf of the talent and filmmakers. The movie is based on Jessica Bruder’s non-fiction book “Nomadland: Surviving America in the Twenty-First Century,” which McDormand and Spears optioned soon after it was published in 2017.

This sounds exciting!!!!

Cremildo · 02-12-2019, 07:59 PM

AFAIC, The Rider was the best film of the year. I hadn't heard of Zhao before that; I sure as hell will watch anything she does from now on.

Hoke Moseley · 02-12-2019, 08:31 PM

And it's already in production?! Wow!

2019 release?

Gacivory · 02-12-2019, 08:39 PM

Looks like she wanted to get in something small and quick before she jumps onto the Marvel train!

Foggy · 02-13-2019, 05:40 AM

This has immediately jumped up to the top of my most anticipated list.

Poya · 02-13-2019, 06:20 AM

She already has 2 Oscars. She doesn’t need another one.

MazeRunner · 02-13-2019, 06:52 AM

So will this be filmed in South Dakota again with real people like her previous two films? I loved those films so count me in.

I hope this doesn’t have real people, but only artificial beings! Robot actors or nothing!

Chloé Zhao already working on her next project?

That's great!

Frances McDormand is always a treat.

This movie would have had its World Premiere at Telluride Film Festival until the festival was cancelled due to COVID-19.

'The Intouchables' & 'The Father' composer Ludovico Einaudi will score the film.

Not surprised South Dakota is on the poster. The director filmed both of her previous indie movies there.

Hoke Moseley · 08-17-2020, 03:36 PM

Lame poster tbh.

Judging by the way they’re pushing this, this could end up being the favourite to pick up Best Picture next year.

I do have to say though, that trailer is a whole lot of nothing.
