Now called “Atlantis”, it is set to hit theaters on May 9, 2025.
“Atlantis” is described as a vibrant exploration of a transformative summer in the life of a young boy in 1977, drawing from the rich cultural tapestry of Pharrell’s upbringing.
Dope title. We’re here for it.
Behind the camera, “Atlantis” is directed by Michel Gondry, known for “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind” and “The Science of Sleep.” The film features a star-studded cast, including Kelvin Harrison Jr., Halle Bailey, Brian Tyree Henry, Quinta Brunson, Anderson Paak, Janelle Monáe, and Missy Elliott.

Pharrell is also producing the project alongside Mimi Valdés and Gil Netter. The executive producers include Matthew Hirsch, Raffi Adlan, Jennie Lee, Shani Saxon, Michael Mayer, Benj Pasek, and Justin Paul.
