Dakota Johnson has a new movie lined up and she’ll be working with a legendary entertainer!

The 30-year-old actress will be starring in a movie called Crackpot, which is to be directed by Elaine May, according to Deadline.

Elaine is a two-time Oscar-nominated screenwriter who also directed movies like 1972′s The Heartbreak Kid and 1987′s Ishtar, which was the last feature film she directed.

In recent years, Elaine returned to acting after a long hiatus and she even won a Tony Award earlier this year for her performance in the Broadway play The Waverly Gallery.

No other details about the film are known at this time.

Elaine May accepts her award on stage at the 2019 Tony Awards on Sunday (June 9) at Radio City Music Hall in New York City.

The legendary 87-year-old actress won her first-ever acting award for Best Performance by a Leading Actress in a Play for her work in The Waverly Gallery.

During her acceptance speech, Elaine totally spoiled the ending of the play!

“And, at the end of the play, I died. Now, my death was described onstage by Lucas Hedges so brilliantly. He described it, so heartbreaking, he was so touching, that watching from the wings, I thought, ‘I’m gonna win this guy’s Tony,’” Elaine May said during her speech.

Lucas was snubbed of a nomination this year.

Michael Cera flashes a smile alongside his co-star Lucas Hedges while taking a bow during the opening night curtain call for their play The Waverly Gallery held at the Golden Theatre on Thursday (October 25) in New York City.

The 30-year-old actor and Lucas, 21, were joined onstage by their cast mates Elaine May, David Cromer, Joan Allen, playwright Kenneth Lonergan and director Lila Neugebauer.

In The Waverly Gallery, Gladys is an old-school lefty and longtime owner of a small art gallery in Greenwich Village. The story intimately observes the impacts of her decline on her work and her family, especially her grandson.

The Broadway revival, which is set to play until January 27, marks the second Kenneth Lonergan play to be seen on the Great White Way in 2018, following Second Stage’s production of Lobby Hero earlier this season – Buy tickets here!
