For now, not much is known about the mystery film, which still doesn't have an official title, but The Hollywood Reporter reports that Emma Stone will star and Dave McCary will direct. We also met the authors of the script: Patrick Kang and Michael Levin, as well as the producers: Shawn Levy, Dan Cohen, Dan Levine, Michael H. Weber, Emma, Dave and Ali Herting. The spouses have already had the opportunity to work together, e.g. on the series “The Curse”. They were both executive producers, and the actress also played one of the main roles.
They met on the set of SNL in 2016, where Dave worked as a writer and director. They married in 2020, and a year later they welcomed their first child together. They are a great example of breaking with the patriarchal order, and in their relationship it is the man who somewhat retreats into the shadow, allowing his partner to fulfill herself.
As reported by a source from US Weekly Dave has always supported Emma in her acting career, knowing how important this is to her. “For Emma to give up acting and become a stay-at-home mom would be like cutting off a limb. It's just not her. Acting is as important to her as breathing, it's part of who she is – and Dave is 100 percent behind her.” .
The key to their good marriage is to be a relationship based on honesty and the belief that what they do professionally will help them be better parents. As the source said, “she and Dave are happy as a couple, and part of the reason is that they respect each other as artists. They love their little family. Louise has brought them so much joy and they are growing and learning every day. They are in this time. Emma still has the Hollywood ambition, drive and determination to do her best and that's what drives her and she believes that doing what she loves will make her a better mother“.
The artists also founded the Fruit Tree production company and in August 2020, they managed to sign a two-year contract with the A24 studio.
