Baz Luhrmann today has a birthday, and his next film. Warner Bros has confirmed to Deadline that Luhrmann’s next feature film at the studio will be the one he’s calling Jehanne or Jehanne d’Arc. It is an epic story about Joan of Arc, the young French peasant who believed God had sent her to lead an army. She believed she would save her country during the Hundred Years War.
The casting breakdown is going out today, seeking a young female in “The ultimate teenage girl coming of age story, set in the Hundred Years’ War.”
Luhrmann, whose 2022 Warner Bros film Elvis was nominated for eight Oscars and had a $288 million global gross, is in the middle of his creative process right now and would not comment, but the casting process has begun and there will be more to say soon.
Luhrmann is repped by WME.
