Apple TV and Brad Pitt are developing a new Apple Original Films feature titled “Connector,” which is set in 1970s New York and follows a legendary ironworker. The film is in development and has no release date reported in the coverage.
Deadline reports that “Sound of Metal” director Darius Marder is involved, alongside his sister Nina Marder, who are credited with writing the story. Pitt is set to star and will also executive produce through his Plan B banner. Other outlets describe the project as a reunion between Apple and Pitt following the global success of “F1: The Movie,” while repeating the core premise and development status.
Across the reports, the main differences are in emphasis: some lead with Apple’s role and “Apple TV” branding, while others foreground Pitt’s return after “F1” and the creative team from “Sound of Metal.”
