Paul Dano has been cast in Bunker, a psychological thriller from French filmmaker Florian Zeller. The casting comes days after Quentin Tarantino criticized the actor’s performance in There Will Be Blood.
Who else is in the Bunker cast with Paul Dano?
Per Variety, Dano joins the star-studded cast that includes Javier Bardem, Penelope Cruz, Stephen Graham, and Patrick Schwarzenegger.
“We are thrilled to welcome Paul Dano to the cast,” Zeller said in a statement. “From ‘Little Miss Sunshine’ to ‘There Will Be Blood,’ Paul has consistently impressed me as an actor. He possesses an extraordinary singularity — something genuinely unique — and in that sense, he is truly irreplaceable.”
Per the official synopsis, “Bunker revolves around an architect who accepts a morally ambiguous project — building a survivalist bunker for a tech billionaire — and his wife, who begins to question their marriage after 17 years together.”
Zeller writes and directs Bunker, his third feature film following 2020’s The Father and 2022’s The Son. For his work on The Father, Zeller and his co-writer Christopher Hampton won the Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay.
Bunker is currently in its second week of filming. It will be shot between Madrid and London. Blue Morning Pictures and MOD Producciones will produce.
Dano’s name has been in the news for the past week after Tarantino made disparaging remarks about the actor during a recent podcast appearance. While discussing There Will Be Blood, Tarantino called Dano the “weakest f—ing actor in SAG,” saying he should not have been cast to star alongside Daniel Day-Lewis.
“[Dano] is weak sauce, man. He is the weak sister. [Daniel] is eating him [alive],” Tarantino said. “Austin Butler would have been wonderful in that role. He’s just such a weak, weak, uninteresting guy. Daniel Day-Lewis shows that he doesn’t need a strong foil. The movie needs it. He doesn’t need anything. It’s supposed to be a two-hander, and it’s not!”
Many actors and filmmakers spoke out in support of Dano, including The Batman’s Matt Reeves and Mattson Tomlin, actor Simu Liu, and There Will Be Blood’s Dillon Freasier.
