Richard Linklater and Ethan Hawke Are Working on a New ‘Secret’ Project

Richard Linklater and Ethan Hawke are working together on a new project.

In an interview published by Interview Magazine, Nowhere’s Gregg Araki asked Linklater about a “secret thing” he was working on with Hawke.

Linklater confirmed that he and Hawke were working on the mystery project just last week. When Araki asked if he should’ve brought up the topic given its secrecy, Linklater said, “I’m always working on a few things, so I don’t really know. Doesn’t matter if they’re secret, no one cares.”

Ethan Hawke, R5ichard Linklater, and the Before trilogy

Hawke and Linklater have collaborated on numerous projects before. Perhaps most notably, Hawke starred in Linklater’s Before trilogy alongside Julie Delpy, which includes 1995’s Before Sunrise, 2004’s Before Sunset, and 2013’s Before Midnight.

Linklater, Hawke, and Delpy have all discussed potentially making a fourth film in the series before; however, Delpy told Variety in 2021 that the project likely wasn’t going to happen.
