Jennifer Lawrence has been cast in the upcoming romantic comedy One Month Mark, written by Sophie Fleur de Bruijn. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the project is currently in development without a confirmed director attached.
De Bruijn gained recognition last year when Apple Original Films acquired her spec script for Early Action, a comedy about parents who fabricate a traumatic experience to boost their son’s college application. One Month Mark marks her second collaboration with Apple.
This film also represents Lawrence’s fourth project with Apple. Previously, she wrapped What Happens at Night, co-starring Leonardo DiCaprio and directed by Martin Scorsese. In 2022, she starred in and produced Causeway, and she also produced Bread & Roses, a film about women in Afghanistan under Taliban rule, for the company.
Backing One Month Mark are David Ready and Peter Chernin of Chernin Entertainment. The studio co-produced the hit Backrooms alongside 21 Laps Entertainment, Atomic Monster, and Phobos. Chernin Entertainment has been notably active this year, releasing Apex starring Charlize Theron and Man on Fire featuring Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, both on Netflix.
Jennifer Lawrence and her producing partner, Justine Ciarrocchi, will produce the film through Lawrence’s banner, Excellent Cadaver. Sophie Fleur de Bruijn will serve as an executive producer.
The plot of One Month Mark centers around two individuals who struggle to maintain long-term relationships: “She has never made it past a month in a relationship. He has never gone longer than a month without one.”
A release date for One Month Mark has not yet been announced.
