William Baldwin and Leo Gregory have signed on to The Road to Nevermore, a new feature written and directed by Jane Spencer (Little Noises).
The film is said to follow “two delusional Irish poets who ditch their stalker-fan and blow her life savings on a road trip to the Swiss Alps in search of spiritual enlightenment.”
The official synopsis reads: “What follows is a collision with a UFO hoax, an earth-worshipping cult, a fog-bound mountain barn, and a celebrity poetry reading, before the pair stumble through a tunnel into Nevermore — a pristine, eerily polite town frozen in a 1950s American aesthetic where poetry is outlawed, phones are banned, and time itself appears to loop.”
Marc Holthuizen of Ward 9 Productions, Mark Forstater (Monty Python and the Holy Grail), and Nathan Neuman of Dreambird Studios produce. Executive producers are Claudia Landsberger and Mark Foligno (The King’s Speech). Production is set to begin in August 2026.
“This film is about the dreamers and the ‘crazies’ who search for meaning and refuse to conform — and I stand firmly on their side. William and Leo bring an extraordinary chemistry to these roles, and together they’re going to take this somewhere genuinely surprising,” Spencer said in a statement.
Forstater added: “Dreambird Studios has developed this surprising and inventive road movie comedy with Jane Spencer and believes it will be a treat for audiences around the world.”
