This was a pretty huge week for casting news. Glenn Close and Henry Winkler are working on a comedy together, Zach Cregger’s Weapons added Alden Ehrenreich, Benedict Wong, and more to its already stacked cast, and Missy Elliott joined Pharrell Williams’ still-untitled coming-of-age musical.

Olivia Cooke (House Of The Dragon) and Jamie Bell (All Of Us Strangers) are set to play Eleanor and Lucas, who have a meet-cute in Italy and quickly fall for each other over their shared passion for art. It looks like they’re meant to be, but there’s one teeny tiny catch: Eleanor and Lucas are in relationships with other people. [Saloni Gajjar]
