Searchlight Boards Laura Chinn Drama ‘Suncoast’; Laura Linney, Woody Harrelson & Nico Parker To Star
Searchlight has boarded Suncoast — a new film marking the feature directorial debut of Laura Chinn (Florida Girls) that will star Laura Linney (Ozark), Woody Harrelson (Triangle of Sadness) and Nico Parker (The Last of Us) — Deadline can confirm.
The film going into production next month is a drama based on Chinn’s life experience from the early 2000s. It follows a teenager (Parker) living with her strong-willed mother (Linney) who must take her brother to live at a specialized facility. There, she strikes up an unlikely friendship with an eccentric activist (Harrelson) amid protests surrounding controversial medical cases.
Jeremy Plager, Francesca Silvestri, Kevin Chinoy and Oly Obst are producing the pic, based on Chinn’s 2020 Black List script. SVP Production Taylor Friedman and Manager of Creative Affairs Daniel Yu will oversee the project for Searchlight, reporting to Heads of Production and Development DanTram Nguyen and Katie Goodson-Thomas.
