Evgueni Galperine & Sacha Galperine (The Undoing, Radioactive, Scenes from a Marriage, Loveless, The Family, Wizard of Lies) are set to score the upcoming sci-fi romantic comedy The Pod Generation. The film will be directed by Sophie Barthes (Cold Souls) and star Emilia Clarke and Chiwetel Ejiofor. The movie is set in a near future where AI is all the rage and revolves around a New York couple who are ready to take their relationship to the next level and start a family and use a new tool, which offers couples the opportunity to share pregnancy on a more equal footing via detachable artificial wombs, or pods. Yann Zenou (The Death of Stalin, The Intouchables) is producing the project for Quad, alongside Geneviève Lemal for Scope. Sacha & Evgueni Galperine have previously scored Barthes’ last feature, Madame Bovary. The Pod Generation is set to start shooting in March of 2022. (Variety)
