Directors: Scott Beck, Bryan Woods
Writers: Scott Beck, Bryan Woods
Stars: Adam Driver, Ariana Greenblatt, Chloe Coleman
“65” is produced by Sam Raimi, released by Sony Pictures. Danny Elfman is composing the film's music.
The Beck/Woods writers declined to work with LucasFilms (and potentially Adam Driver on "Star Wars") in order to continue creating original stories in lieu of pre-existing IP. Now, the filmmaking duo is finally collaborating with Driver on the mysterious new project.
According to the official synopsis, after a catastrophic accident on an unknown planet, pilot Mills (Adam Driver) quickly discovers that he is actually stranded on Earth... 65 million years ago. Now, with only one chance at rescue, Mills and the sole survivor, Koa (Ariana Greenblatt), must fight their way through unfamiliar terrain plagued by dangerous prehistoric creatures in an epic fight for survival.
"For us, ['65'] was the project that we wrote when 'A Quiet Place' came out and the studio decided it would be a franchise and a sequel," Woods explained during a virtual panel at the 2020 Nightstream Film Festival, as reported. by The Knockturnal. "We wrote 'A Quiet Place' because we were tired of the sequels. The only movies being made were sequels, franchises, and comic book movies. We wrote this movie out of that."
Beck added: "It's one that's been brewing in our heads for years and years."
Driver was the lead in his dreams for "65" after Woods became "spellbound" by Driver's performance on the HBO series "Girls."
Beck then returned to his appreciation of Driver's talent. "From 'Stars Wars' to the Jim Jarmusch movies, everything he brings to a movie has many layers," he said. "It's really fun to see when the camera can pick up those layers."
The film was shot on location in Louisiana's Kisatchie National Forest and marks Driver's follow-up to Noah Baumbach's adaptation of “White Noise”. Driver will also appear in Francis Ford Coppola's star-studded “Megalopolis,” alongside Shia LaBeouf, Aubrey Plaza, Forest Whitaker, Dustin Hoffman, James Remar and Laurence Fishburne. Driver will also play Enzo Ferrari in the Michael Mann biopic "Ferrari."
“65” opens in theaters on March 10, 2023.
