Luca Guadagnino isn’t one to rest on his laurels.

Despite the imminent release of his tennis love triangle film, Challengers, as well as casting rumors swirling around the release of yet another new feature potentially starring Josh O’Connor (also on this list), the Call Me By Your Name director is getting right back to work.

It was announced this week that he is also on board to direct screenwriter Nora Garrett’s After The Hunt, with Julia Roberts attached to star. According to Deadline,

the film is “an intense dramatic thriller about a college professor (Roberts) who finds herself at a personal and professional crossroads when a star pupil levels an accusation against one of her colleagues and a dark secret from her past threatens to come to light.” [Emma Keates]
