A24 and director Kelly Reichardt‘s (“Wendy & Lucy“) upcoming film “Showing Up” takes place within the art scene with Kelly reuniting with four-time Oscar nominee Michelle Williams (“Manchester By The Sea“), who plays an artist about to have a career-changing art exhibition while attempting to her chaotic life that should inspire some fantastic artwork.

There has been a huge casting update from Deadline, as the studio has added a whole bunch of additions to “Showing Up.” The group of talented actors joining Williams includes Hong Chau (“Inherent Vice,” “Downsizing,” “Watchmen“), Judd Hirsch (“Uncut Gems“), André Benjamin (“High Life“), John Magaro (“Overlord“), Maryann Plunkett, Heather Lawless, Amanda Plummer, Larry Fessenden, and James Le Gros.
“Showing Up” is penned by Reichardt and her longtime writing partner Jon Raymond.
Michelle Williams will be seen next in Andy Serkis‘ “Venom: Let There Be Carnage” on September 24 with a cast that consists of Tom Hardy, Woody Harrelson, Stephen Graham, and Naomie Harris. The “Venom” sequel takes place in Sony’s own splinter cinematic universe featuring their own Marvel characters and will finally bring the super-villain Carnage (Harrelson) to the big screen.
She is also set to appear in Steven Spielberg‘s latest film inspired by his childhood alongside Seth Rogen and the Peggy Lee project “Fever” from the director Todd Haynes that will likely be placed on the back-burner as Todd focuses on “May December.”

The art scene has been covered over the years with stylish projects such as Tim Burton‘s “Big Eyes” and the horror film “Velvet Buzzsaw” from director Dan Gilroy, however, we shouldn’t expect people being killed off one by one like a high-concept slasher film in Reichardt’s upcoming feature.
