It was announced in November 2016 that Leos Carax was set to make his English language film debut, with Adam Driver, Rooney Mara and Rihanna in talks to star in the film. Filming was slated to begin in Spring 2017. In March 2017, Amazon Studios acquired the film; however, Mara and Rihanna weren't involved in the project. In May, Michelle Williams was cast to replace Mara, with filming now slated to begin in July. Production on the film stalled, with screenwriters Ron and Russell Mael attributing the delay to Driver's commitments to Star Wars. Filming was moved to begin in Summer 2019.

The first Carax film that I liked. And, by the way, this applies precisely to the part for which Carax himself was responsible: directing, acting, visuals. As for Sparks, the musical here is made as a parody, which doesn’t fit with the serious tone of the film at all and is rather annoying.
"What the hell are you talking about?" With such a facial expression, questions in my head and emotions, I sat while watching. It was hard to sit and generally plunge into this picture. A lot of things my brain simply refused to perceive. This is not for me. But the actors here are just delight.
Carax decided to repent, and at the same time made a joke about the musical genre. Well, the viewer got another confession from another director. The picture is colorful and oppressive, but extremely shocking and somewhere even boring. In short, it turned out very French.
The last time the musical genre was so mercilessly turned inside out was by Lars von Trier in Dancer in the Dark. Only if Trier’s method is a noose, Carax’s method is tickling. A painful, unbearable, sadistic tickling.
Roller coaster crossed with a musical. Ups and downs, interest and boredom, resourcefulness and primitiveness, music and dog barking, melodiousness and cacophony. From love to hate one step? From genius to bad taste too. And Carax overcomes this distance with a joyful leap.
Yes, yes, a hopelessly gloomy arthouse musical in which Driver lightened his personal burden for Karax. I am impressed when subtle things (love, talent, betrayal) are presented in such a deliberately kitsch manner, the same applies to music – it is organic to the film and characters.
Howard Wolowitz as a conductor – well, that’s a real like. The story can be told in a couple of paragraphs, but the presentation and staging as a musical are very original. Driver is an actor, Carax is a director.
Pure cinema. The film is so subduing that even neighing from Driver singing during cunnilingus does not work. A tough story about oblivion in creativity and much more. Is it an artist’s confession or just a reflection on the topic? And what’s the difference if the soul is still broken.
Leos Carax buries his wife, himself and sprinkles ashes on his head, apologizing to his daughter. The spectacle is fascinating, but so painful and frightening that I would like to avoid it, if not for the Driver, who drags this performance of self-destruction with the pressure of a bulldozer from the very beginning to the final
I watched it in Rodina. Many will find the film strange, but after watching it to the end, they will talk about the heroism. After watching it, you feel like you’ve been to an opera. And the reason is not that one of the heroines is an opera diva. There are many metaphors and conventions that need to be omitted in order to see the depth.
in the category Significant arthouse, other cinema, and films not for the average viewer. Musical, arthouse, aesthetic pleasure, a breakthrough in perception, all for 10! The gloomy drag is exorbitantly long for all 6 points. The music of the Sparks group pleasantly surprised
