Aubrey Plaza has new movies with 2 MCU heavyweights and a Hollywood legend
Delaware native Aubrey Plaza, known for "White Lotus'' and "Agatha All Along," will team up with MCU heavyweights in some upcoming films, including one with Chris Evans in the dark comedy "Honey Don't!" The Ethan Coen-directed film is set to hit theaters late this summer. But that's just one of the new movies on the horizon for the Emmy-nominated star. Here's a closer look at "Honey Don't,'' and other projects Plaza has lined up, which include "Deadpool" star Ryan Reynolds and "Aquaman" lead Jason Momoa, plus more. IMDB describes "Honey Don't!" as a dark comedy following Honey O'Donahue (Margaret Qualley), a small-town private investigator, who's working to solve a string of strange deaths tied to a mysterious church. The film stars Chris Evans (Reverend Drew), Aubrey Plaza (MG) and Charlie Day. According to Variety, Qualley "worked with Coen and Cooke on 'Drive-Away Dolls,' the first of their lesbian B-movie trilogy that 'Honey Don't' continues. The film marks a sharp contrast from Evans' famous boy-scout role as the beloved MCU superhero Captain America. Aubrey Plaza tips hat to Rivers: She'll be joined with other stars The trailer for "Honey Don't!" teases a tangled web of mystery and deception. It opens with Aubrey Plaza, dressed as a police officer, discreetly handing Honey O'Donahue an address, setting her on a path of investigation. Honey arrives at a crime scene where Reverend Drew greets her near an overturned car with a dead woman inside. She removes a ring from the woman's hand, noticing it bears the same cross-shaped symbol as the Reverend's church, Four-Way Temple. In another scene, the Reverend delivers a sermon in a white robe, standing in front of two large portraits of himself, one in sunglasses. He's later seen having a threesome in the church's sacristy. The sex act is interrupted by a gunman, who bursts through the door and blindly fires several shots at the bed. Honey's investigation takes her to what appears to be the dead woman's home, where she discovers a white church robe and bondage-looking lingerie. The Rev questions Honey's interest in what he says is merely a "traffic fatality," before an attempt to charm her over drinks. As tensions rise, the Rev shoots someone off-camera. Honey asks Plaza to help her on the case, and she joins in. Honey is seen having a violent battle with dudes, while Plaza appears to be hitting someone with a weapon off camera. This sets the stage for a twisted, dark comedy with the Queen of Deadpan. "Honey Don't!," which will debut at Cannes this month, is in theaters only on Aug. 22. According to Plaza's IMDB page, her other upcoming films include the animated "Animal Friends" with Jason Momoa ("Aquaman") and Ryan Reynolds ("Deadpool"). The film (listed in production) is about two animals that become unlikely friends. The drama "Olga Dies Dreaming" is a TV series where one episode is completed, per IMDB. It follows a Nuyorican brother and sister, and their careers among New York City's elite in the wake of Hurricane Maria. Another film in the works is "The Ark and the Aardvark," an animated adventure about an aardvark named Gilbert that lands the job of shepherding all the animals onto Noah's Ark. Plaza is cast as the voice for a character named Brain. The film is in production and includes Craig Robinson ("The Office") and Miles Teller ("Top Gun: Maverick"). Aubrey Plaza & husband Jeff Baena: They separated before his death, new report confirms Hollywood legend Susan Sarandon and Plaza will appear in the upcoming drama "The Accompanist," alongside rising young actor Everly Carganilla. The film is the directorial debut for "The Office" actor Zach Woods. Deadline says the film is about 9-year-old Emily (Everly Carganilla) who accidentally tells the school nurse her dementia-stricken grandfather almost got them killed. This prompts a rookie child welfare agent Sarah (Aubrey Plaza) to pop up at their house and investigate. Emily is taken and ends up with Sylvia (Susan Sarandon), her new foster parent. Sylvia is described as "mysterious, witchy, funny, and unpredictable." The woman is playful and warm, but things get complicated because she the foster mom is haunted by her past. "The Accompanist" is produced in association with Aubrey Plaza's Evil Hag Productions and Cinereach, plus the film's screenplay was co-written by Woods and Brandon Gardner, per Deadline. The film is currently in post-production. Plaza's IMDB page also mentions the John Waters-directed film "Liarmouth: A Feel-Bad Romance" as being in pre-production. While Waters originally tapped Plaza as Marsha Sprinkle, a scammer and suitcase thief, Waters announced in November that the film is no longer happening.
