Ang Lee hasn’t directed a new movie in six years, with his last film being 2019 Will Smith bomb Gemini Man. (The movie that dared to ask whether two Will Smiths could be even less of a box office draw than one.) Lee has flirted around with a few projects in that time (he’s supposedly still working on a movie about boxing match The Thrilla In Manila, and has expressed an interest in a Bruce Lee biopic), but nothing concrete. Until now, as Deadline reports that the Brokeback Mountain director is returning to the geographic features that most inspire him, with a new film, Old Gold Mountain, in the works.
