Steven Soder­bergh has set anoth­er film at HBO Max, with Zoë Kravitz starring

No rest for the wicked, a cat­e­go­ry that evi­dent­ly includes the nev­er-tir­ing Steven Soder­bergh, who’s killing time while wait­ing for his next movie to come out by begin­ning work on his next next movie. We’re all eager­ly antic­i­pat­ing the release of the peri­od-piece action pic­ture No Sud­den Move on HBO Max, but he’s already mak­ing some sud­den moves of his own, as a report today announces.

Dead­line has the exclu­sive that he will return to HBO’s orig­i­nal stream­ing ser­vice on the fea­ture KIMI, a cyber-thriller sure to touch on the themes of insti­tu­tion­al malfea­sance he’s pur­sued his entire career. The bul­letin came with the news that Zoë Kravitz will star in the film, in her first team-up with the esteemed filmmaker.

She’ll play an ago­ra­phobe who’s fig­ured out a work­able life for her­self as a tech employ­ee, han­dling every­thing from the com­put­er in the safe­ty of her own home. But when she dis­cov­ers evi­dence of a heinous crime dur­ing a review and is failed by all chan­nels of account­abil­i­ty, her whistle­blow­ing efforts will force her to leave the lit­tle bub­ble in which she’s hiding.

The whole ​“cor­po­ra­tions could not care less about the human toll their oper­a­tions exact” sounds like clas­sic Soder­bergh, but curi­ous­ly, the script comes David Koepp. Famed for writ­ing Juras­sic Park and Spi­der-Man (while infa­mous for direct­ing Mort­de­cai), he’s anoth­er new col­lab­o­ra­tor and an unex­pect­ed choice for a direc­tor who’s worked with Tarell Alvin McCraney in the past few years.

Either way, ago­ra­pho­bia is very in right now, a dec­la­ra­tion I’m mak­ing based sole­ly on how bad I want to see Netflix’s upcom­ing, long-delayed The Woman in the Win­dow. The dis­or­der is film­mak­ing gold – per­fect excuse to stay in one loca­tion, lets your actor prac­tice his or her best crazy-eyes, ready-made dra­ma of enter­ing the dan­ger­ous out­side world. Claus­tro­pho­bia, now that’s the tough one to make work. Just ask the Ryan Reynolds psy­chothriller Buried, which takes place in a coffin.
