Mahershala Ali To Star In Bassam Tariq’s ‘Your Mother Your Mother Your Mother’ For Amazon MGM Studios’ Orion Pictures
deadline.comEXCLUSIVE: Two-time Academy Award winner Mahershala Ali (Leave the World Behind) has signed on to star in Your Mother Your Mother Your Mother, a new film written and to be directed for Amazon MGM Studios‘ Orion Pictures by Berlin prize-winner Bassam Tariq (Mogul Mowgli).
Plot details for the film are being kept under wraps. Producers include Two & Two Pictures’ Lucan Toh and Babak Anvari, as well as Tariq.
Interestingly, the project serves as a reunion of sorts for Ali and Tariq. In 2021, Tariq was tapped to direct Marvel Studios’ long-anticipated Blade reboot, with Ali set to star.
However, the director departed the film just over a year later, and the project remains in limbo. An Oscar winner for his roles in Moonlight and Green Book, Ali is coming off of Sam Esmail’s smash hit thriller Leave the World Behind, which amassed 121 million views within a month on Netflix and is now the fifth most streamed English-language film on the platform.
