In late 2023, Bradley Cooper set up his third feature as a director. Cooper will be teaming up with Will Arnett and Emily Blunt on the Searchlight-produced “Is This Thing On?” Cooper is set to write, direct and star in the film — Arnett penned the script with Mark Chappell. Production is now set to begin in September. Plot details are being kept under wraps. Cooper is coming off the Oscar-nominated Netflix biopic “Maestro,” and his 2018 Oscar-winning directorial debut “A Star Is Born.”
