Oscar winner Joaquin Phoenix (Joker, Gladiator, The Master) is on board to star in Disappointment Blvd. from director Ari Aster (Hereditary, Midsommar) and producers A24, who will also finance the project, according to Deadline.
Aster and Lars Knudsen will also produce alongside A24 via their Square Peg production company.
Details are being kept under wraps on the film, which will be written and directed by Aster.
As previously reported, the film’s title stems from the saying, “There is a general’s staff hidden in every soldier’s kitbag.”
