Netflix teases the upcoming George Clooney/Adam Sandler film, Jay Kelly, with a new image

A little over a year ago, it was reported that Noah Baumbach has been tapped to helm his fourth project with Netflix after Marriage StoryWhite Noise and The Meyerowitz Stories. Plot details are still kept under wraps and it was only this past January that Netflix revealed the title of the film will be Jay Kelly. Baumbach directs the film from a screenplay written by him and the movie’s co-star, Emily Mortimer. Baumbach reunites with his Meyerowitz Stories star Adam Sandler and pairs him up with George Clooney. Netflix continues to dole out the details of the film little by little and today, we are treated to a single image of the film. Take a gander below.

The only description given for the plot reads, “It’s a heartbreaking comedy from Noah Baumbach starring George Clooney, Adam Sandler, and Laura Dern.” There is also a bit of a tease with the tagline, “Everybody knows Jay Kelly, but Jay Kelly doesn’t know himself.” The cast list who join Clooney and Sandler include:
