Dragon House: Did you know this series star on the set of his next movie?

Doctor Who, The Crown, House of the Dragon… On the TV side, Matt Smith is fine. As for cinema, it’s a different matter.

He certainly appeared in Ryan Gosling’s first feature film and Edgar Wright’s Last Night in Soho, but that barely makes up for Terminator Genisys, where his supposed central role was reduced to a cameo, including the cast of Star Wars IX. He disappeared into the night, claiming he was never there, or Morbius.

But his next film has everything to end up on the right side of the scale, as he’s caught in a heist, Darren Aronofsky’s new production. The thriller, in which he will star alongside Austin Butler, Zoe Kravitz, Regina King, Bad Bunny and Liev Schreiber, looks spectacular to say the least, as revealed by photos from the set.

So it’s the handsome and tall punk crest that the English actor will play in this film, which centers on ex-baseball player-turned-bartender Hank Thompson (Austin Butler), who finds himself immersed in New York’s underworld. 90s.

Inspired by Charlie Huston’s novel of the same name, Caught Theft throws a hell of a ride because Darren Aronofsky knows how to stage them. To date, the feature film does not have a release date, but it should be a prime target for major festivals in 2025.

If the main character will be played by Austin Butler, who will thus add another prestigious director to his CV, Matt Smith’s role and its content are still unknown to us. But there is no doubt that her on-screen appearance will be memorable if her performance reflects her face.
