PerDeadline, the project starred Robert Pattinson as a serial killer who hires a lobbyist (Amy Adams) to change laws that would allow him to commit murder more easily. Per the official synopsis, Robert Downey Jr. was to “play a retired cop who won’t give up on the murders, and the killer tries to prevent him from dogging his trail now that he’s hung up his gun. The serial killer turns himself into a cause celebre, a Mr. Smith Goes to Washington figure shielding his true motives.”
Don’t Look Up received four Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture, as well as four Golden Globe Award nominations, including Best Picture – Musical or Comedy. The cast includes Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Lawrence, Rob Morgan, Jonah Hill, Mark Rylance, Tyler Perry, Timothee Chalamet, Kid Cudi (credited as Scott Mescudi), Cate Blanchett, and Meryl Streep.
