The film is titled Scapegoat, and he also wrote the script.
If you don’t know, Ari has made a name for himself for his famed A24 collaborations, including Midsommar and Hereditary. A24 is apparently on board for this new film as well.

Deadline reports that “after reading the script, Johansson was all in on starring in the film and producers were on board for a shoot later this year to accommodate her busy schedule.” Scarlett has been filming the new Exorcist film, and will also be starring in the new The Batman movie, which will shoot later this summer.
