Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Start, 50/50) has signed on to star in a new film titled Pendulum which is produced by Darren Aronofsky (The fighter, Black Swan, The whale). Black Swan co-writer Mark Heyman is directing and writing the screenplay.

Described as a “terrifying new genre film,” the film follows young couple Patrick (Gordon-Levitt) and Abigail on a journey to a New Age retreat in New Mexico, drawn by the possibility of healing after a traumatic event.

Patrick is willing to do anything to help his wife, but becomes wary of the retreat’s enigmatic leader even as Abigail falls under his spell.

As paranoia grows, the couple must determine whether the group’s unconventional spiritual practices offer true healing or mask a terrifying truth that threatens to consume them both.

Principal photography on the film will begin in March 2025 in New Mexico.

Aronofsky is currently filming the thriller Caught stealing hero Austin Butler for Sony Pictures. The film follows Hank Thompson (Butler), a burned-out former baseball player, as he is unwittingly thrust into a savage struggle for survival in the criminal underworld of 1990s downtown New York.

In addition to Butler, they also star in the film D’Faraone Woon-A-Tai, Vincent D’Onofrio, Zoë Kravitz, Regina King, Matt Smith, Liev Schreiber, Will Brill, Bad Bunny AND Griffin Dunne.
