Overview
- News outlets reported June 3–4 that Jonathan Groff has signed to co-star with Daniel Radcliffe in Trust the Man, a Vietnam War thriller written and to be directed by Will Graham.
- The film follows an Army Intelligence officer assigned to investigate a decorated soldier, with surveillance and interrogation escalating into a dangerous personal bond.
- Groff’s specific role has not been disclosed and Lucas Hedges, who was previously attached, is no longer part of the project because of scheduling conflicts.
- Shooting is set to take place in New Jersey this summer and producers announced include Will Graham, Tonia Davis and Max Linsky for Invitation Media, Luke Rodgers, and Alex Scott, with UTA handling domestic rights and Neon International handling international rights.
- The casting reunites Groff and Radcliffe after their hit Broadway run of Merrily We Roll Along and comes as both actors finish recent Tony‑nominated shows, a pairing that could raise the film’s profile at markets and festivals as it moves toward production.
