Harry Styles is one of the most renowned musicians in the world today. However, he has been slowly but steadily making his way into the world of professional acting. His debut film role was in Christopher Nolan’s Dunkirk, and his acting was well-received by most critics and audiences. He has a few other films in the works right now, but it is clear that he is trying to find that one project that will truly put him in the spotlight and elevate him to the echelon of high-profile and high-demand actors. Well, a new report that we have received might be the movie that gives him his biggest break yet in the world of cinema.
According to our trusted inside source – the same one that gave us our confirmed exclusive scoops regarding Don Cheadle appearing as War Machine in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and Josh Brolin returning to the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Thanos – Harry Styles is in talks to star in Mobius, a true story adaptation of the romance between British musician Warren Malone and celebrated cosmologist Janna Levin. The script will be based on Levin’s short story, “Life on a Möbius Strip”. It is a heartwarming account of the relationship between the two and how it pertains to Levin’s observations about life, the universe, and everything.
It should come as no surprise that Harry Styles, an English musician, is being sought to play the part of Warren Malone. As of now, it does not look like the studio has a particular actress in mind for the role of Janna Levin. The information that our source provided us does not have a director attached to the project just yet, but we have to imagine that this will be attractive to filmmakers since it could easily be positioned as an awards darling under the right circumstances. The talent that decides to attach themselves to Mobius could end up steering how much profile this movie ends up getting once it starts getting marketed.
It certainly sounds like a good fit for Harry Styles and his desire to be seen as a dedicated actor. The musician angle to the character of Warren Malone would give Styles an understandable basis for the character, and it would also mean that the studio could potentially get Styles to record some songs for the film’s soundtrack. If the movie can boast having songs by Harry Styles, that is just one more piece of ammunition in its favor. The fans of Styles’ musical career will definitely enjoy the idea of getting to hear him sing, and the movie could even position a song for awards consideration.
We will simply have to wait and see what other developments we hear surrounding Mobius and Harry Styles’ involvement in the project. It certainly has the potential to be a good slice of true romance a la The Big Sick. Hopefully, we will get to learn some other significant developments about Mobius in the coming year or so and can look forward to seeing Harry Styles on the big screen once again.
