Jason Momoa, Gal Gadot, Al Pacino, and Gerard Butler Star in New Netflix Movie Netflix has secured the rights to a forthcoming drama featuring a star-studded cast. The film, titled In the Hand of Dante, is directed by Julian Schnabel and written by Schnabel and Louise Kugelberg. While no official release date has been announced, the project is anticipated to be a major release, bolstered by its impressive lineup of actors. The film’s cast includes Oscar Isaac, Gal Gadot, Gerard Butler, John Malkovich, Louis Cancelmi, Sabrina Impacciatore, Franco Nero, Benjamin Clementine, Paolo Bonacelli, Martin Scorsese, Al Pacino, and Jason Momoa. It premiered at the Venice Film Festival last year, where Schnabel received the Cartier Glory to the Filmmaker Award for his contributions to the arts. In the Hand of Dante is an adaptation of the 2002 novel by Nick Tosches. Oscar Isaac portrays two dual roles: the author Tosches in the 21st century and Dante Alighieri in the 14th century. The film’s logline describes the connection between the two characters, stating that a New York author in the modern era and Dante Alighieri in the 14th century are linked through time and their shared obsession with love, beauty, and the divine. Schnabel, known for films such as The Diving Bell and the Butterfly and Before Night Falls (which launched Javier Bardem’s career), brings his distinctive style to this project. The film’s blend of historical and contemporary narratives, along with its eclectic cast, positions it as a significant release for Netflix. The project’s announcement highlights the streaming platform’s continued investment in high-profile, narrative-driven cinema.#venice_film_festival #jason_momoa #gal_gadot #al_pacino #gerard_butler
