The announcement is part of several this morning following the streamer’s Next on Netflix presser yesterday.

As Deadline first told you, Baumbach’s latest stars a murderers’ row including George Clooney, Adam Sandler, Laura Dern, Greta Gerwig, Billy Crudup, Grace Edwards, Stacy Keach, Riley Keough, Emily Mortimer, Patrick Wilson, Jim Broadbent, Eve Hewson and Alba Rohrwacher. Pic’s producers are David Heyman, Amy Pascal and Baumbach.

Baumbach and Emily Mortimer co-wrote Jay Kelly which is simply billed as a “heartbreaking comedy.”

Baumbach has an exclusive deal with the studio and previously directed The Meyerowitz Stories (New and Selected) — which also starred Sandler. That movie world premiered at Cannes. Baumbach’s Marriage Story was nominated for six Oscars, winning Best Supporting Actress for Dern. He also directed the $100M+ sci-fi feature White Noise starring Gerwig and Adam Driver, which was based on the Don DeLillo novel. It’s the first time that Baumbach directed from a story not based on his own. It won’t be a surprise if Jay Kelly winds up at the fall film festivals: Marriage Story world premiered at Telluride in 2019 while White Noise debuted at the Venice Film Festival in 2022.

Baumbach is a 4x Oscar nominee for 2023’s Barbie (Adapted Screenplay), Marriage Story (Original Screenplay and Best Picture), and 2006’s The Squid and the Whale (Original Screenplay).
