Cherry (Tom Holland To Star, Russo Brothers To Direct) - Blu-ray Forum

Spider-Man actor Tom Holland is in talks to star in the Russo brothers’ “Cherry,” which is expected to be the directing duo’s first non-Marvel gig.

“Avengers: Endgame” helmers Joe and Anthony Russo will direct from a script by Jessica Goldberg, who adapted the novel “Exit West” for the brothers’ studio AGBO and was creator and EP of Hulu series “The Path.”

AGBO acquired the rights to Nico Walker’s book, “Cherry,” in August, with plans to shoot over the summer.

“Cherry” parallels the true life story of the author, a former Army medic who returned from Iraq with extreme undiagnosed PTSD, fell into opioid addiction and began robbing banks. Walker was caught and convicted in 2011 and is scheduled to be released in 2020.

Yeah, this is going to be really up-lifting!

Actually, sounds pretty interesting. We'll have to see how it develops.

Ooo, I'm digging this.

“...which is expected to be the directing duo’s first non-Marvel gig.” That’s right, let’s just forget about You, Me & Dupree.

I assumed they were meaning since the Marvel movies because everyone may have forgotten You, Me, and Dupree, they 3 movies in total before Marvel and a bunch of TV shows.

Is the name "Cherry" for the main characters nickname?

Honestly thought it might be a comedy about coming of age and er... Well. Ya know.

Sounds interesting.

Foggy · 03-11-2019, 05:54 PM

Sounds rad, though I'm a bit unsure towards Holland as lead.

You know, I was thinking that I don't think I've seen him in anything.

His next non-Spider-Man gig seems to be Doug Linman's Chaos Walking with a Charlie Kaufman script, but even then it's a YA adaptation.

Holland is a really good actor. So more of him is great.

captveg · 03-11-2019, 06:26 PM

Sounds compelling. Will be cool to see the Russos do something outside of the MCU.

You should check out Lost Coty of Z. Not a big part, but I thought the movie was great!

He was very funny in the SM trailer before CM.

That's all I can say. Heh.

A movie I've been meaning to see for years.

And yet, I never get around to it. Maybe tonight!

It came out less than 3 years ago. Usually when people say, "... for years", it means a lot longer than less than 3 years. So you're ok. It's not that old.

The Russo's next film is Cherry with Tom Holland. Starts filming in October. Set in their hometown and about the opioid crisis. A deeply personal story for them. #sdcc
