Black Bear International has announced that Henry Cavill (The Witcher), Jake Gyllenhaal (Ambulance), and Eiza González (Baby Driver) have signed on to reunite with director Guy Ritchie‘s in his next action movie. The film is expected to start filming this summer in Spain.
Gyllenhaal worked with the English filmmaker in the recently released action thriller The Covenant. Meanwhile, Cavill and González have just wrapped up production on Ritchie’s upcoming spy film The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare.
“There’s something special that happens when you collaborate with the same partners regularly: you build a shorthand and a trust that lets everybody do their best work,” Ritchie said in a statement. “Jake, Henry and Eiza are all astonishingly talented, committed, and engaging actors. This is going to be an action-packed movie that is both intellectually stimulating and physically exhilarating.”
Who’s Involved in Guy Ritchie’s Next Movie?
The untitled project will be written and directed by Ritchie. Further details about its plot and characters are still being kept under wraps, but it is being described as a big-budget action spectacle laced with Ritchie’s trademark humor. The Aladdin filmmaker serves as a producer along with Ivan Atkinson, and Black Bear International’s John Friedberg.
Before starring in Ritchie’s next movie, Cavill will first reprise his role as Geralt of Rivia in the upcoming third season of Netflix’s The Witcher. This season is expected to be last time he’ll play the hero. He is also currently attached to star in Amazon Studios’ adaptation of Warhammer 40,000, a tabletop game Cavill is a lifelong fan of.
As for Gyllenhaal, the Oscar nominee will be leading Amazon’s Road House remake and Apple TV+’s Presumed Innocent. Meanwhile, González will next be seen in Netflix’s The Three-Body Problem series from Game of Thrones creators.

Andrew Garfield Voyagers Movie Adds Daisy Edgar-Jones
Voyagers is a romantic drama on the relationship between NASA’s Carl Sagan and filmmaker Ann Druyan, has found its leads. Daisy Edgar-Jones (Normal People) will star alongside Andrew Garfield (Tick, Tick… Boom!) in the biopic. According to Variety, Garfield will star as Sagan, with Edgar-Jones playing Druyan. Voyagers marks the second collaboration between Garfield and Edgar-Jones. Both co-starred in the crime miniseries, Under the Banner of Heaven.
Who’s Involved with Voyagers?
Sebastián Lelio, the Oscar-winning filmmaker behind 2017’s A Fantastic Woman, will direct Voyagers from a screenplay he co-wrote with Jessica Goldberg. Lelio and Goldberg worked directly with Druyan to craft the script, based on interviews conducted with Druyan and those who worked on the Golden Record project. The film will be produced by Druyan, Lynda Obst, and Ben Browning for FilmNation Entertainment. Additionally, Voyagers will launch global sales at the upcoming Cannes Market.
“Voyagers unfolds in 1977 as NASA prepared to launch humanity’s first interstellar probes,” the synopsis reads. “A team led by Sagan sets out to create a message to accompany them, known as the Golden Record, which included music and images, for possible alien civilizations. But what starts out as a race-against-the-clock mission blossoms into a love story between Sagan and Druyan.”
Garfield has not starred in a movie since 2021’s Spider-Man: No Way Home, where he reprised his role as Peter Parker from The Amazing Spider-Man franchise. In that same year, Garfield appeared in The Eyes of Tammy Faye and Tick, Tick… Boom!, and the latter resulted in an Oscar nomination for Best Actor.
Edgar-Jones is coming off the success of last year’s Where the Crawdads Sing, which grossed over $140 million worldwide. The Normal People actress was recently cast in Twisters, the sequel to the 1996 disaster movie starring Bill Pullman and Helen Hunt.
