Marriage Story director Noah Baumbach is once again teaming up with Adam Driver to deliver something a bit more different from his usual genre of filmmaking.
Here’s the first trailer for White Noise starring Driver, Greta Gerwig, and Don Cheadle:
Here’s the official description:
At once hilarious and horrifying, lyrical and absurd, ordinary and apocalyptic, White Noise dramatizes a contemporary American family’s attempts to deal with the mundane conflicts of everyday life while grappling with the universal mysteries of love, death, and the possibility of happiness in an uncertain world.
If you’ve watched The Meyerowitz Stories and A Marriage Story, it’s clear that Baumbach has a penchant for dysfunctional family drama, but it looks like he’s going to be upping the ante with White Noise by delivering us an odd family, but they’re also being surrounded by these really big, dramatic events.
Though Adam Driver is kind of known for playing a type lately, I’m really interested to see him play this dopey looking father figure. It’s also great to see Greta Gerwig onscreen again. Though she’s been kicking it out of the park with films like Lady Bird and Little Women, it’s nice to see she still has those acting chops to star opposite a critical darling like Driver.
Even the rest of the characters look quirky and fun, but we’ll just have to wait until release to meet all of them.
Catch White Noise in theaters when it comes out Nov. 26. The movie officially starts streaming on Netflix on Dec. 30.
