Jude Law and Jason Bateman are reportedly working together on a miniseries for streaming giant Netflix.
Two Hollywood stars are said to have teamed up for a still very secret yet promising Netflix mini-series. According to reports from Industry magazine “Deadline” and “Variety” “Ozark” star Jason Bateman (53) and “Fantastic Beasts” actor Jude Law (49) are currently developing a joint project called “Black Rabbit”.
Details are still top secret
Accordingly, the two stars plan to serve not only as actors in front of the camera, but also as executive producers behind the camera. Bateman will also direct the project. Screenwriters Zach Baylin (42) and Kate Susman were hired for the story. Baylin is the writer behind the Oscar-winning drama King Richard. His wife Susman has previously worked with him as a producer on various projects.
The plot of the series is currently still under wraps. The only thing known so far is that the series should be based on an “own idea”. The “Internet Movie Database” also reveals that “Black Rabbit” is a drama.
If the series gets the green light, it would be Law and Bateman’s first project together. For Jason Bateman it would be the next big series role after his success with the Netflix series “Ozark”. Here, too, he was already behind the camera as a director. Jude Law will soon be reprising his roles in “Fantastic Beasts: Secrets of Dumbledore” as Captain Hook in “Peter Pan & Wendy” and again as Dr. John Watson will be seen in Sherlock Holmes 3.
