White Noise, which will be released in 2022, reunites Baumbach with longtime collaborators Adam Driver and Greta Gerwig (Baumbach’s wife).
With films like Marriage Story and Frances Ha, Baumbach has established himself as a director who consistently captures the attention of moviegoers; White Noise is expected to do the same. Not to mention that the film is based on a highly acclaimed and National Book Award-winning novel by Don DeLillo.
Here is the entirety of our knowledge of White Noise.
White Noise release date
White Noise will debut in select cinemas on November 25 before making its Netflix debut on December 30. It is currently unknown if the November 25 date applies globally or only to the United States. All of this occurs after the film’s global debut on August 31, 2022, at the Venice Film Festival.
When is Chapter 3 of Poppy Playtime anticipated to be released?
The premiere of White Noise in cinemas prior to its streaming availability qualifies the film for Oscar consideration this year.
