Rose Byrne is reteaming with her If I Had Legs I'd Kick You director, Mary Bronstein, on her next project, with Jenna Ortega also set to star.
Nasty, written by Isabella Jarosz and 2024 Black List entrant, follows a young athlete battling for a spot on the Olympic gymnastics team who must overcome her biggest opponent: her coach.
Barbie production company LuckyChap is producing along with Ortega. Nasty will begin filming this fall.
This is the latest project for Clockwork, the newly founded Warner Bros-based specialty label from a trio of former Neon executives: Christian Parkes, Jason Wald and Spencer Collantes. Clockwork has also lined up Sean Baker's post-Anora feature, Ti Amo! and recently spearheaded a deal to sign producer Chris Ferguson and his studio Oddfellows to a first look pact.
Byrne, repped by CAA and RGM Artists, earned an Oscar nomination for her role in If I Had Legs I'd Kick You. She will next be seen in the Peacock series The Good Daughter. Ortega, repped by CAA and Jackoway Austen, will be in theaters this fall with sci-fi drama Klara and the Sun.
Bronstein is repped by CAA and Yorn Levine; Jarosz is repped by CAA, Untitled and Ziffren Brittenham.
