What is our obsession with comedies about bad teachers? There have been loads of them over the years, and now 4-time Oscar nominee Saoirse Ronan will get to play one in Bad Apples.
Deadline reports that Ronan will star in Bad Apples, a dark comedy based on Rasmus Lindgren’s novel De Oönskade about a teacher who traps her worst student in her own house. The result? The rest of the class begins to excel without the influence of that one bad apple student. So all good, right? Obviously not.
The film will mark the English-language debut of Swedish filmmaker Jonatan Etzler. His directorial debut One More Time hit Netflix this year. Bad Apples will have a script by Jess O’Kane, with production set to begin in spring 2024.
Ronan is keeping busy this year. She can be seen in theaters right now in Foe opposite Paul Mescal. She has two movies coming, Steve McQueen’s Blitz, followed by The Outrun.
