White Noise is directed by Noah Baumbach, starring Adam Driver and Greta Gerwig.
White Noise is a respectful adaption of a novel by the irreverent and respected author Don DeLillo, who in a way has spent decades challenging the idea of perceived stability.
Do not be surprised by this dystopia that at times seems surreal, at others uneven, dark and hilarious in its all its farcical glory.
Premise
A toxic cloud covers the placid town. Jack is a university professor who is well contented with his life, until he finds himself in the midst of an apocalyptic scenario, and is forced to confront his ingrained notions of his own existence.

Despite all their self-mythologisation, filmmakers are still ultimately mortal. So it’d be entirely forgivable if they’d spent the past few years preoccupied with death. Why else would Noah Baumbach have been so drawn to make White Noise? This is, after all, an adaptation of Don DeLillo’s supposedly “unfilmable” novel that positions fear of the grave as the driving force behind every American ideal, from station wagons to Elvis Presley.
DeLillo’s language is severe and enchantingly precise; every individual in his world is a philosopher lecturing to no one but themselves. His book is set in the Eighties and concerns a miniaturised apocalypse triggered by a cloud of chemicals – not an obvious fit, then, for Baumbach, whose films (Marriage Story; The Meyerowitz Stories) largely concern the most intricate neuroses of modern-day, self-branded intellectuals. But there is nothing more self-centred, perhaps, than a fear of death. And even...

Noah Baumbach’s firm grip on White Noise, Don DeLillo’s masterpiece, starring Adam Driver and Greta Gerwig with Raffey Cassidy, Sam Nivola and May Nivola (Emily Mortimer and Alessandro Nivola’s children), Don Cheadle, Jodie Turner-Smith, Lars Eidinger, and Barbara Sukowa, with costumes by Oscar-winner (for Anthony Minghella's The English Patient) Ann Roth (Baumbach ’s While We're Young), is vibrantly disturbing and joyously faithful to the source. The uproarious finale, an all-encompassing supermarket dance number, visually part Stepford Wives and Jacques Demy musical, is set to new body rhumba, a new song by LCD Soundsystem, all ready to show the Grim Reaper what we humans are up to.

It’s not hard to see why Noah Baumbach, our foremost movie satirist of the body neurotic, would have Don DeLillo’s 1986 novel “White Noise” in his sights for adaptation — especially so after the pandemic seemed to bring stark new resonance to the author’s prescient, all-too-human black comedy about a dysfunctional family in distracted, anxious, consumerist America enduring an “airborne toxic event.”
What’s harder to accept about this ideal blend of filmmaker and material — in a way, rounding out a trilogy about cracked-but-surviving families following Baumbach’s “The Meyerowitz Stories” and “Marriage Story” — is that it’s impressive in its filmic warp and woof but falls short getting under our skin the way the novel immortalized with joking seriousness our collective “brain-fade” and how each of us handle the fear of death.

Netflix has unveiled the trailer for Noah Baumbach’s “White Noise,” starring Adam Driver and Greta Gerwig as the heads of a blended family forced to go on the run after an “airborne toxic event” settles over their town.
The adaptation of Don DeLillo’s prize-winning novel finds Jack (Driver) and Babette (Gerwig) living with their four whip smart children in a university town at the peak of mid-1980s consumer culture. That all changes when a mysterious chemical cloud starts heading their way, forcing everyone to evacuate.

Noah Baumbach and Adam Driver made waves with their raw emotional drama, Marriage Story when it premiered on Netflix back in 2019. The director and actor re-team for a new quirky comedy-drama set for Netflix called White Noise. The trailer for the film has just premiered online and finds Adam Driver and his wife, played by Greta Gerwig, having to keep their family calm and safe amid a pending doom in the middle of a disaster in their town as their family continues to struggle with their personal conflicts.
The official Netflix synopsis reads,
“At once hilarious and horrifying, lyrical and absurd, ordinary and apocalyptic, White Noise dramatizes a contemporary American family’s attempts to deal with the mundane conflicts of everyday life while grappling with the universal mysteries of love, death, and the possibility of happiness in an uncertain world.”

"Doesn't anyone want to pay attention to what's actually happening?" Netflix has unveiled the wild full trailer for Noah Baumbach's new film White Noise, based on the acclaimed book of the same name by Don DeLillo. This premiered at the Venice and New York Film Festivals earlier this fall. White Noise dramatizes a contemporary American family's attempts to deal with all the mundane conflicts of everyday life while grappling with the universal mysteries of love, death, and the possibility of happiness in an uncertain world. The title is a reference to an industrial accident that unleashes an "airborne toxic event", which this trailer spends most of its time on. The film's ensemble features Adam Driver, Greta Gerwig, Don Cheadle, Raffey Cassidy, Sam Nivola, May Nivola, Lars Eidinger, Andre Benjamin, Jodie Turner-Smith. This is a good film, but not as good as it could've been, as it's not easy to adapt DeLillo's prose into cinema.

Writer-director Noah Baumbach’s latest film White Noise is his most ambitious project yet, with a production budget north of 100 million, per reports, and a wacky plot featuring elaborate car chases and a fully staged train crash.
The film is an adaptation of Don DeLillo’s cult novel of the same name. In the simplest terms, the film follows a family across three wildly different but intersecting stories about contemporary American life following the outbreak of a catastrophic “airborne toxic event.” Some of Baumbach’s acting favorites return, including Adam Driver and Greta Gerwig. There is also lots of his trademark whimsical cross-talk among characters. But the film’s cinematographer, Lol Crawley, told Deadline that the key to executing the family drama was Baumbach embracing a new, larger methodology.
“I discovered early on that Noah doesn’t really like a second camera. But we just had to embrace that to accomplish the more ambitious scenes,...

Noah Baumbach has a firm grip on Don DeLillo’s masterpiece White Noise (the Opening Night selection of the 60th New York Film Festival). It is the first time the writer/director adapted someone else’s work, and the result is a vibrantly disturbing tableau that is joyously faithful to the source.
The Gladney household consists of Jack (Adam Driver) and his wife Babette (Greta Gerwig), his two children from previous marriages, Heinrich (Sam Nivola) and Steffie (May Nivola), Babette’s daughter Denise (Raffey Cassidy) and the wise, wordless Wilder (played by twins Henry Moore and Dean Moore), who, as opposed to the novel, is the son they have together (Wilder here also does get to say one single show-stopping word - “again”).

“White Noise” holds a mirror up to American culture, especially cinema history. It’s the purely controlled, heightened chaos onscreen that reminds us why “family is the cradle of misinformation,” much like how the blur of media, art, and celebrity similarly splinter into everyday existential crises.
Based on Don DeLillo’s 1985 novel of the same name, “White Noise” was meticulously written and directed by Noah Baumbach and stars Adam Driver as Professor Jack Gladney, tasked with protecting his family, played by Greta Gerwig, Raffey Cassidy, Sam Nivola, and May Nivola, after an airborne toxic event forces them to evacuate a picturesque college town. “White Noise” premieres in theaters November 25 and streams on Netflix December 30.
Ultimately, “White Noise” is a dissection of the distractions of daily life and the inherent craving to “flatten” our emotions on the inevitable march toward death. But the Hitchcock-meets-Spielberg-meets-Altman sentimentality, with a dash of Wes Anderson,...

Alice, Darling by Mary Nighy
Also playing are Alice, Darling (Mary Nighy) in which Anna Kendrick captures the anxious psychology of a woman in an abusive relationship as her friends try to reconnect with her while on a cottage getaway.
Black Ice(Hubert Davis) about Black hockey players facing systemic racism in the sport.

Don DeLillo’s post-modernist 1985 novel White Noise long has been desired by filmmakers trying to crack the nut of how to bring the complex dark comedy to the screen. Barry Levinson made an attempt in 2004 that didn’t come to fruition. Director Michael Almereyda was announced in 2016, also going nowhere. James L. Brooks’ Gracie Films had it optioned at one point. But it seems entirely appropriate that it finally should land in the hands of Noah Baumbach, a self-professed mega-fan of the book he read first in college in the late ’80s and saw it as a very satiric yet accurate account of the sad state of affairs of the world at that time. However, by 2021, when he got around to adapting and directing the first of his own films he didn’t write as an original screenplay, the multiple themes running though the book not only still were relevant,...

As a filmmaker, Noah Baumbach has always been a dyed-in-the-wool dramatic realist, talky coastal neurotic division. He hasn’t always been as good at it as he is today; “The Squid and The Whale” (2005), the divorce drama that established his reputation and is held in supremely high regard by many cinephiles, isn’t half the movie that “Marriage Story” is. The latter film was Baumbach’s culminating achievement after 25 years as a writer-director, and it brought his strengths to a new pitch of mastery: his ability to nail the dynamics of troubled relationships in all their frayed layers, his extraordinary skill with actors, and the nimble levity of his dialogue, which emerges from the human comedy as surely it did in the great films of Woody Allen and Paul Mazursky.
With “Marriage Story,” Baumbach enjoyed the kind of success that independent filmmakers dream of. So it’s no surprise, in a way,...

There’s much to appreciate in Noah Baumbach’s alternately exhilarating and enervating attempt to tame Don DeLillo’s comedy of death, White Noise, not least the daredevil spirit and ambition with which the writer-director and his cast plunge into the tricky material. But little in this episodic freakout hits the target quite so well as the wild end credits sequence, a dance number set in a suburban A&p supermarket, in which the entire ensemble boogie in aisles stacked with colorful products, accompanied by an LCD Soundsystem banger called “New Body Rhumba.” With that ecstatic visual, Baumbach nails a key theme of the book — Americans seeking solace from their mortality in consumerism.
The 1984 novel is a postmodern satire of encroaching disquiet and cacophonous chaos that — particularly in its depiction of environmental catastrophe and human-made disasters — now seems even less like epochal paranoia...

The 79th Venice Film Festival kicked off Wednesday night with the world premiere of White Noise, Noah Baumbach’s adaptation of Don Delillo’s “unfilmable” 1985 novel and a video cameo by Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Starring Adam Driver and Greta Gerwig, and with a cast that includes Don Cheadle, Jodie Turner-Smith, May Nivola, Raffey Cassidy and Sam Nivola — all of whom attended Venice’s red carpet premiere, White Noise is the first Netflix film to open the world’s oldest film festival.
Baumbach’s last feature, Marriage Story, also starring Driver, alongside Scarlett Johansson, premiered in Venice in 2019, launching a successful awards season run for the divorce drama, which ended with six Oscar nominations and one win, a best supporting actress nod for Laura Dern. Netflix will be hoping for a similar reception for White Noise on the Lido this year.

Noah Baumbach passed through the Lido Wednesday afternoon where he broke down the origins of his Venice Film Festival opener White Noise, starring Adam Driver, Greta Gerwig, and Don Cheadle.
Written for the screen and produced by Baumbach, David Heyman, and Uri Singer, the film is based on the cult book by Don DeLillo, which Baumbach said he rediscovered during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic.
“I both couldn’t believe how relevant it felt and how it felt so much about the moment,” Baumbach said. “But I was also struck by how I feel like whatever moment was going on it would feel relevant to that. And at the same time, I started not only taking on DeLillo’s language but finding my own voice within his language. It was something that felt very familiar.”

“Everything is extra!” blurts out Don Cheadle at the press conference for “White Noise” at the Venice Film Festival.
The Noah Baumbach-directed film, an adaptation of the 1985 Don DeLillo novel, opens the Italian festival on Wednesday night, and is nothing if not theatrical, as its cast members explained at length before the screening.
“When [Baumbach] started re-reading the book, I did too,” said Greta Gerwig, who is Baumbach’s real-life partner. “[The writing] has this quality that makes you want to say, ‘Listen to this!’ and read sections out loud. There’s a performative quality to it; you want to share with other people. It seemed to be both emotionally and intellectually exciting.”
When asked whether the film was trying to convey DeLillo’s language or Baumbach’s, Adam Driver noted that he “didn’t define it as one or the other.”

Oscar-nominated writer/director Noah Baumbach reunites with two-time Oscar nominee Adam Driver and three-time Oscar nominee Greta Gerwig (his real-life partner) for White Noise, based on the book by Don DeLillo. The one-minute teaser trailer doesn’t give away much; if you haven’t read the book, odds are you’ll have no better idea what the film’s about after watching the trailer than you did before pressing play.
Netflix hasn’t set a premiere date for the comedy/drama which is embarking on a festival run before its wide release. White Noise is the opening night film at the Venice Film Festival on August 31, 2022 and will screen at the New York Film Festival in September.

Viewers are getting their first look at Noah Baumbach’s latest project, “White Noise”.
Baumbach writes, directs, and produces the dark satire starring frequent collaborators Adam Driver and real-life partner Greta Gerwig in the Netflix film. Based on the 1985 novel by Don DeLillo, “White Noise” marks the first time Baumach will direct a film he didn’t write himself.
The story centres on Prof. Jack Gladney (Driver), an academic who has made a name for himself in the field of “Hitler studies” and his wife Babette (Gerwig), who struggle to protect their family after an “airborne toxic event” occurs in their fictional town. The film’s official synopsis says the story “dramatizes a contemporary American family’s attempts to deal with the mundane conflicts of everyday life while grappling with the universal mysteries of love, death, and the possibility of happiness in an uncertain world.”

"May the days be endless… Let the seasons drift… Do not advance the action according to a plan." Netflix has revealed the first teaser trailer for Noah Baumbach's new film White Noise, which is premiering at the 2022 Venice Film Festival. This is his highly anticipated follow-up to Marriage Story, which also premiered in Venice and went on to earn six Oscar noms (and one win). This time Netflix gave him a bigger budget. Based on the book by Don DeLillo, White Noise dramatizes a contemporary American family's attempts to deal with the mundane conflicts of everyday life while grappling with the universal mysteries of love, death, and the possibility of happiness in an uncertain world. The title is a reference to an industrial accident that unleashes an "airborne toxic event".

If you’ve ever wondered what “Stranger Things” would look like through the lens of “The Squid and the Whale” filmmaker Noah Baumbach, Netflix appears to be granting that wish. The first teaser trailer for the Oscar-nominated “Frances Ha” and “Marriage Story” writer/director’s new film “White Noise” has arrived, which finds Adam Driver and Greta Gerwig playing a married couple in the 1980s trying to keep their family safe from… something.
The teaser trailer is purposefully obtuse, as is the official logline. Based on the novel of the same name by Don DeLillo, the film is described as “at once hilarious and horrifying, lyrical and absurd, ordinary and apocalyptic,” going on to say the story “dramatizes a contemporary American family’s attempts to deal with the mundane conflicts of everyday life while grappling with the universal mysteries of love, death, and the possibility of happiness in an uncertain world.

Three-time Oscar nominee Noah Baumbach has returned with some familiar faces. The “Marriage Story” filmmaker has reunited with Adam Driver and his real-life partner, Greta Gerwig, for an adaptation of Don DeLillo’s sprawling novel “White Noise.” As with Baumbach’s previous two films, “The Meyerowitz Stories” and “Marriage Story,” Netflix will release the project on its platform. The streaming service unveiled the first trailer for “White Noise” on Thursday with a promise to debut the film later this year.
“At once hilarious and horrifying, lyrical and absurd, ordinary and apocalyptic, ‘White Noise’ dramatizes a contemporary American family’s attempts to deal with the mundane conflicts of everyday life while grappling with the universal mysteries of love, death, and the possibility of happiness in an uncertain world,” reads a description provided by the studio that accompanied the first teaser trailer.

“White Noise,” the latest feature film from “Marriage Story” Oscar nominee Noah Baumbach, is scheduled to open this year’s Venice Film Festival. Starring Baumbach’s oft-collaborators Adam Driver and Greta Gerwig, “White Noise” is the first Netflix feature to open the fest.
The film is an adaptation of Don DeLillo’s 1985 novel of the same name.

Co-stars to Driver and Gerwig include Jodie Turner-Smith, Don Cheadle, Raffey Cassidy, Sam Nivola, May Nivola, André L. Benjamin and Lars Edinger.

At a Tribeca loft in New York City on Sunday evening, many of the cast members and producers of the new film “With/In” met each other for the first time. That’s because “With/In,” produced by Maven Productions’ Trudie Styler and Celine Rattray, is an anthology of short films created during the early months of the pandemic.
In 2020, as the world shut down, Styler and Rattray had an idea: They’d flip through their extensive rolodex of Hollywood names — like Julianne Moore, Elizabeth Marvel, Rosie Perez, Gina Gershon, Chris Cooper and Talia Balsam — and ship professional camera, sound and production equipment to their homes. In possession of the equipment for two days, participants could write, direct and shoot a 10-minute short film on any topic of their choosing.
“I don’t think anyone quite expected how difficult the challenge would be,” Rattray told Variety at the screening. “With/In,” which features eight of the 13 films,...
