No start date or release window has been set as the project enters casting.

Overview

  • The story follows Trey, an ex-con working nights as a driver, whose growing connection with Camden, a young sex worker played by Keen, draws pressure from a figure in Trey’s past portrayed by Gillen.
  • Driver marks Patrick Ireland’s feature directorial debut from a script he co-wrote with Jessica Romagnoli.
  • Playhouse Pictures is producing the film, which remains in development with principal photography and further casting to be announced and no release window yet.
  • Casting is being led by Ajo Kacmar of IO Casting as the production assembles its ensemble.
  • Keen also serves as an executive producer, and Ireland describes the film as exploring class, trauma and liberation.
