Justin Chon & Elijah Bynum Teaming On Sci-Fi Film ‘Capsule’ For 20th Century Studios
Justin Chon and Elijah Bynum are teaming on 'Capsule,' a sci-fi film for 20th Century Studios, Deadline can exclusively reveal.
Actor-filmmaker Chon broke out behind the camera with a pair of critically acclaimed Sundance indies — the dramas Gook(2017) and Ms. Purple(2019), which were released by Samuel Goldwyn Films and Oscilloscope, respectively. Making his feature directorial debut with the 2015 comedy Man Up, Chon also previously directed Blue Bayou(2021), a Focus Features drama examining the struggles of a Korean adoptee facing deportation, which premiered at Cannes, as well as the music-world drama Jamojaya, which premiered at Sundance 2023. Bynum is a writer-director whose lauded bodybuilding drama, Magazine Dreams, was shelved for a time amid allegations of assault and other charges against star Jonathan Majors.
