Christian Petzold is doing the rounds stateside for the release of Miroirs No. 3 and fans of the German filmmaker will be pleased to know that he might Valentine card his fans by bringing former muse Nina Hoss and current muse Paula Beer together for an ensemble project. We are a long way off from this materializing but its exciting nonetheless. Maybe we circle this for a 2029 drop? Juggling more than one project at the same time, we learn via Letterbox chatted that the filmmaker is considering bringing them together for a project with deets below:
“I’m thinking about making a movie with both of them. I’ve written down a little bit of a script. If I can finish writing after making this police drama, I think Nina and Paula would both like it. It’s about a theater group under pressure—they’ve lost their theater, because it has been sold to a malevolent person. This will be their last season. They’re performing a play by Chekhov, and they have an ensemble that’s not very strong. But at this moment, when they know the group has to die, they deliver their greatest performance ever. That would be the story, with Nina and Paula as part of the ensemble.”
