Paul Thomas Anderson’s upcoming movie stars Leonardo DiCaprio.

Contemporary filmmakers capture stunning visuals but are often mismatched with poor screenplays that lack depth, thanks to desperate plots and quick cash-grabs. Enter Paul Thomas Anderson, a production powerhouse who has it down to a tee.

Thanks to him, we have movies such as There Will Be Blood, Magnolia, and The Master. However, the director has often faced financial losses, barely turning a profit at all. Will his new film, One Battle After Another, be any different?

What’s the Plot of One Battle After Another?

The film follows Bob Ferguson as he races to find his daughter aided by so-called ex-revolutionaries after 16 years of no contact. Together, they must confront resurfacing threats from their past. It stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Benecio Del Toro, Tetyana Taylor, and Sean Penn.

The score is composed by Jonny Greenwood, who also collaborated with Anderson before.

When is it Scheduled for Release?

It’s set premiere in theaters on September 26, 2025 and was produced by Warner Bros Pictures on a budget of $140 million.
