Outcome is an upcoming American black comedy film directed and co-produced by Jonah Hill, who co-wrote the screenplay with Ezra Woods. It stars Keanu Reeves, Hill, Cameron Diaz, Matt Bomer, David Spade, and Laverne Cox.

## Premise

[edit]

Reef Hawk is an actor who has been sober for five years. He has taken a break from acting to build his new home, and he takes pride in his progress in life. However, when he receives a call from his crisis lawyer Ira Slitz, who reveals that someone is blackmailing him with a video of questionable content, his life is turned upside-down. Reef then sets out to make amends with those who he has wronged in the past to figure out who the blackmailer is.[1]

## Cast

[edit]

* Keanu Reeves as Reef Hawk, a damaged Hollywood star who must look into his past to confront demons and make amends after he is extorted with a mysterious video clip.[2]
* Jonah Hill as Ira Slitz, Hawk's crisis lawyer who informs him of the extortion and works to solve it.[2]
* Cameron Diaz[3]
* Matt Bomer[3]
* Susan Lucci[4]
* David Spade[4]
* Laverne Cox as Virginia[5]
* Kaia Gerber[4]
* Roy Wood Jr.[4]
* Atsuko Okatsuka[4]

Martin Scorsese revealed to Dave Karger at the 92Y that he plays a "washed-up agent for young actors" in the film.[6]

## Production

[edit]

It was announced in April 2023 that Apple TV+ had acquired the film, which was to be directed by Jonah Hill.[7] He would also star in the film, while Keanu Reeves was in negotiations at that point to star alongside him.[8] Hill co-wrote the screenplay with Ezra Woods.[9][1] In January 2024, Reeves was confirmed to star in the film, with principal photography scheduled to begin in March 2024 in Los Angeles, and expected to wrap in May.[1] Nick Houy serves as an editor for the film.[10] In March, Cameron Diaz was said to be in advanced talks to join the film in an undisclosed starring role.[9] Days later, Diaz was confirmed to have signed on to join the cast, with Matt Bomer also joining in another undisclosed role.[3] This will mark the first time Reeves and Diaz have appeared in a film together since Feeling Minnesota (1996).[11] Principal photography began on March 20, 2024,[12] shortly after the production of Reeves and Aziz Ansari's comedy film Good Fortune.[7] In April, Susan Lucci, David Spade, Laverne Cox, Kaia Gerber, Roy Wood Jr. and Atsuko Okatsuka were added to the cast.[4] Cox revealed her role as Virginia in September, and revealed her involvement with Reeves in "one big scene", likening it to "a one-act play within the film".[5]

## Release

Outcome is set to be released by Apple TV+.[8]
