Matthew Goode hints at new role

A new interview with Collider (see Press Archive for 2025 for more) hints at a new role (or two?) –

Do you guys each know what you’re going to be doing next?

GOODE: For me, one of them hasn’t been announced yet. There’s something quite exciting coming up, which is good. And then, there was a project that went down, earlier this year. It’s a thing with Zoe Saldaña and a really lovely script, by the same gentleman who wrote Birdman. So, that may happen. I don’t know. But the next thing that is definite, I can’t even speak about.
