Jacob Elordi is reported to be in talks to co-star in Ari Aster’s next film, A24’s thriller “Scapegoat,” which already has Scarlett Johansson attached as the lead. Deadline and Variety both describe the project as being directed by Aster, with a script written by him, and positioned as an A24 release. Details of the story remain limited, and neither outlet provides a confirmed logline.
Both reports note that the film’s plot is not publicly disclosed, though early speculation circulates about what the thriller could involve. Variety says the logline is kept under wraps while speculation begins to form, and Deadline similarly frames reporting around sources rather than confirmed specifics. The coverage also emphasizes that Aster is directing and writing the screenplay, and that the production is tied to A24’s slate. Neither article indicates that Elordi’s casting is finalized, and both present the involvement as being in discussions rather than complete.
Overall, the outlets align on the reported cast names and the core creative leadership, while differing mainly in how much they reiterate unconfirmed plot theories.
