The Lady Bird and Call Me by Your Name star is in talks to appear in Net­flix dra­ma The King.

Michôd’s pre­vi­ous fea­ture, the Brad Pitt-front­ed mil­i­tary satire War Machine, arrived on Net­flix last year to lit­tle fan­fare. The Aus­tralian film­mak­er has teamed up with reg­u­lar col­lab­o­ra­tor and com­pa­tri­ot Joel Edger­ton to pen the script for The King, and with Cha­la­met join­ing Robert Pat­tin­son in the prin­ci­ple cast, we’re brac­ing our­selves for some­thing big.
