Justin Long Joins Jenna Ortega and Rose Byrne in Gymnastics Drama 'Nasty,' THR Reports
Justin Long has joined the cast of the drama 'Nasty,' starring alongside Jenna Ortega and Rose Byrne, The Hollywood Reporter reported exclusively on October 29. The role he will play has not yet been announced.
The film is directed by Mary Bronstein and written by Isabella Jarosz, whose script was featured on the 2024 Black List of most-liked unproduced screenplays. It follows a gifted young gymnast fighting for a spot on the U.S. Olympic team, only to realize her biggest obstacle is her own coach.
Ortega also serves as a producer, alongside Margot Robbie's LuckyChap, and the film is set up at Warner Bros.' specialty label Clockwork. Production is expected to begin this fall; no release date has been announced.
The project reunites Bronstein with Byrne after 'If I Had Legs I'd Kick You,' for which Byrne received an Academy Award nomination.
