The film stars Robert Pattinson, Amy Adams, Robert Downey Jr, Forest Whitaker, and Danielle Deadwyler, and is a sequel to his Netflix apocalypse comedy ‘Don’t Look Up’ from 2021.
According to PTI, McKay wrote the script and will co-produce the film with Kevin Messick under his Hyperobject Industries banner.
Pattinson will play a serial killer who hires a lobbyist (Adams) to change laws to allow him to commit murder more easily.
Downey plays a retired cop who refuses to give up on the murders, and the killer tries to keep him from following him now that he’s retired.
