Zendaya and John David Washington's quarantine movie is going to Netflix

By Rachelle / 14 Sep 2020 (Monday)

Netflix has acquired the worldwide rights to Sam Levinson’s Malcolm & Marie, starring Zendaya and John David Washington.

Malcolm & Marie stars Washington as a filmmaker and Zendaya as his girlfriend, following them after they return home from a movie premiere. A discussion about their past relationships takes an unexpected turn, testing the strength of their love.

The film was shot earlier this year, in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic. The production says it went to great pains to keep the set COVID-free and to earn the approval of major guilds such as the WGA, DGA and SAG-AFTRA.

Levinson is best known for creating the HBO series Euphoria. He wrote the script and produced the picture in addition to directing it. Zendaya appears in Euphoria and will make her silver screen return when Dune opens in cinemas December 17, while Washington is currently starring in Christopher Nolan's Tenet.
