Julianne Moore, Josh Brolin, and Daisy Ridley Headline Most Discussed AFM Projects

The 47th American Film Market will take place in Los Angeles, USA, from November 10 to 15. The event will be held at the Fairmont Century Plaza, AMC Century City, and The Pavilion, against the backdrop of significant changes in the independent film industry.

The selection includes *Almost You*, directed by Matt Lipsey, starring Juno Temple, Joey King, and James McAvoy. The film’s protagonist, a robotics engineer, creates a digital copy of her deceased sister using messages, videos, and social media posts. In the thriller *Control*, directed by Robert Schwentke, McAvoy plays a man who discovers a device in his head and is forced to obey a voice; Julianne Moore is also listed among the cast.

Josh Brolin stars in *A Speck in the Sea*, the narrative feature debut of documentary filmmaker Orlando von Einsiedel. The film is based on the true story of a fisherman who fell overboard into the Atlantic Ocean at night. In *Get Rid of It*, starring Daisy Ridley, a casual encounter leads to the appearance of an unknown entity inside the protagonist. Filming for the project is scheduled for February 2027.

The drama *Darlington* features Renée Zellweger, Dominic Sessa, and Peter Dinklage. Zellweger plays an actress known for a single television role who visits the estate of a reclusive billionaire living as if it were 1923.

The list also includes the Korean animated film *Long Long Night*, the horror film *The Face of Horror* based on the Japanese tale *Yotsuya Kaidan*, the drama *Falcon* about Sergio Marchionne’s attempt to save Fiat, and the musical comedy *It’s Alright* starring Paul Bettany and Colin Firth. A notable trend at AFM is the transition of online creators into feature-length cinema.
