team for the first time on the project from directors Nat Faxon and Jim Rash , with a screenplay from the pair and “Succession” creator Jesse Armstrong. The pedigree is not by coincidence, as Louis-Dreyfus has been at work on the film for five years with her “Enough Said” producer Anthony Bregman and Searchlight Pictures .
The premise of the first film remains deliciously intact: a nuclear family, with mom and dad and two kids, are sitting at a picnic bench when a crush of snow descends. The group has no choice but to brace for what feels like death, with mom wrapping up her children on their side of the table. Dad, on the other side, grabs his cell phone and flees the scene.
“The original film is sort of iconically a very Swedish film, so the idea of injecting an American sensibility into this European universe was intriguing to us, as well as opening up the gender roles even more so,” said Louis-Dreyfus. “As soon as I thought they had managed to solve a scene better than we did, I felt genuinely happy — and jealous at the same time,” Ostlund said. “But I’ve decided for myself to embrace the differences and look at it like when they put on classic plays in the theater: It’s the differences in the reading that are a big part of what makes it interesting.”
Yet another unnecessary hollywood remake of a classic non-english speaking film made so that american audiences are kept spoiled to not appreciate art made out of their comfort zone. 🤷🏽♂️
You mean the remake of Force Majeure?
