Millie Bobby Brown and Gabriel LaBelle are teaming up in “Just Picture It,” an upcoming romantic-comedy feature at Netflix.
They will star as two college students who are surprised when their phones glitch and start showing them pictures from 10 years in the future, featuring them as a happily married couple with kids. It’s mostly weird because they have yet to meet each other.
Lee Toland Krieger (“The Age of Adaline”) will direct “Just Picture It” from a script by Jesse Lasky, who used to write for “The Late Show With David Letterman.”
Brown has shepherded “Just Picture It” from inception and will serve as a producer, while her husband, Jake Bongiovi, will executive produce.
The 21-year-old was propelled to fame as a pre-teen on Netflix’s “Stranger Things”, which the fifth and final season debuts in November.
Brown has since worked closely with the giant streamer on the Sherlock Holmes spinoff series “Enola Holmes” and fantasy adventure “Damsel.”
She also has “Enola Holmes 3” in the works at Netflix as well as plans to adapt her debut novel “Nineteen Steps” into a feature film.
LaBelle, 22, broke out as a young Steven Spielberg in the director’s semi-autobiographical drama “The Fabelmans.”
He then proceeded to play another Hollywood heavyweight, “Saturday Night Live” creator Lorne Michaels, in director Jason Reitman’s “Saturday Night.”
“Just Picture It” will also be produced by Joe Roth and Jeff Kirschenbaum for RK Films as well as Robert Brown for PCMA Productions.
Executive producers are Alyssa Altman for RK Films, Isobel Roberts for PCMA Productions and David Kern.
