Following their big sale of the rom com "One Month" Mark to Apple, Chernin Entertainment has a new package hitting the market and has boarded "Palm Grove," an original, big-screen erotic thriller by James Morosini starring Kate Hudson and Ana de Armas directed by Kornél Mundruczó.
The film is set in Miami’s most exclusive neighborhood, where a picture-perfect wife uncovers her husband’s double life — igniting a seductive power game that turns betrayal into the most intoxicating game of her life.
It is an original screenplay by Morosini, which will also executive produce. Mundruczo is attached to direct.
Peter Chernin, David Ready, and Brady Fujikawa will produce on behalf of Chernin Entertainment.
This comes shortly after Chernin Entertainment landed Sophie Fleur de Bruijn’s highly sought-after, buzzy new rom-com "One Month Mark," starring Jennifer Lawrence, with Apple Original Films in a highly competitive situation.
Chernin Entertainment’s recent hit projects include "Backrooms," which has already grossed more than $260 million worldwide; "Apex," which premiered in April and climbed to No. 1 on the Netflix global English film list and "Man on Fire," which debuted in April as the No. 1 TV show in the world on Netflix.
Hudson is having herself quite a run over the last 12 months, starting with her Oscar-nominated performance in "Song Sung Blue".
The project also earned her a SAG, BAFTA, and Golden Globe nom, as well as some of the best reviews of her career. She is an executive producer and stars in the hit Netflix series, "Running Point," which has been picked up for a third season.
She is currently filming "Hello & Paris, opposite Javier Bardem.
Best known for her roles in "Blonde," which earned her Academy Award nomination and "Knives Out," for which she received a Golden Globe nomination; de Armas was most recently seen starring in the Lionsgate action pic "Ballerina" and "No Time to Die".
She is currently in production on the Apple TV+ limited series "Safe Houses".
