Charlie Kaufman's 'I'm Thinking of Ending Things' premieres on Netflix
Charlie Kaufman's new film 'I'm Thinking of Ending Things' will be available on Netflix from September 4. Based on Iain Reid's 2016 novel, it marks Kaufman's third directorial effort after 'Synecdoche, New York' and 'Anomalisa', the latter winning a Silver Lion at Venice in 2015. The film stars Jesse Plemons, Jessie Buckley, David Thewlis, and Toni Collette. The trailer, released two years after the project's announcement, exemplifies Kaufman's signature style of mystery, surreality, and horror.
