The new true-crime thriller coming to Netflix features 18-year-old child star Jacob Tremblay as one of the country’s most notorious killers. The actor, who co-starred with Oscar-winner Brie Larson in the film Room when he was just eight years old, will play Ted Kaczynski in UNABOM, a drama that follows the life of the Unabomber and his descent into madness. Tremblay will star alongside Gladiator icon Russell Crowe, who will play Harvard Professor Henry Murray. The psychologist, who died in 1988, conducted controversial experiments on Kaczynski during his time at the Ivy League. Divergent actress Shailene Woodley will take on the role of FBI agent Joanne Miller, and Peaky Blinders star Annabelle Wallis will portray a yet-to-be-revealed role. Kaczynski was a domestic terrorist who launched a violent one-man campaign to attack individuals with homemade bombs from 1978 to 1995. He was caught in 1996 after one of the longest and most expensive manhunts in history and committed suicide in prison in 2023. The project is led by director Janus Metz and screenwriters Sam Chalsen and Nelson Greaves. Production is set to begin soon, but the film has yet to be given an official release date.
