Andrew Garfield and Florence Pugh to headline new romantic drama We Live in Time

British actors Andrew Garfield and Florence Pugh are reportedly teaming up for the first time for a feature that has been described as a "funny, deeply moving, and immersive love story." Deadline states that Irish filmmaker John Crowley might be at the helm.

If the talks bear fruit, the team reportedly plans to hit the floor in the latter half of 2023, which means the film may be ready for release by 2024's end. French film distribution and production firm StudioCanal is bankrolling the upcoming movie, titled We Live In Time.

StudioCanal, a 35-year-old establishment, has produced films like Terminator 2: Judgment Day, JFK, Basic Instinct, Cliffhanger, and Under Siege, among others. Free Willy, the original Stargate movie, Bully, U-571, and Bridget Jones's Diary was also financed by StudioCanal.

While Garfield was last seen in the Hulu miniseries Under the Banner of Heaven as Detective Jeb Pyre, Florence Pugh had three releases last year: Don't Worry Darling, The Wonder, and a voice role in Puss in Boots: The Last Wish.
