Jason Bateman's Hollywood Takeover: Directing Tom Holland, Black Rabbit Success, and SmartLess Thrives

Jason Bateman BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Jason Bateman is having quite the moment in Hollywood right now. Most significantly, early October brought the announcement that he's set to direct Tom Holland in The Partner, a Universal Pictures adaptation of John Grisham's 1997 legal thriller. According to Deadline and IMDb, this marks Bateman's third directorial feature, and he'll executive produce through his Aggregate Films banner alongside his partner Michael Costigan. Holland, who was already attached to star and produce, will play Patrick Lanigan, a young lawyer who fakes his own death to steal ninety million dollars. The Imitation Game Oscar-winner Graham Moore penned the script, though no release date has been announced yet.

Meanwhile, Bateman's Netflix crime series Black Rabbit continues making waves. The show, which premiered in September and stars him opposite Jude Law, topped streaming charts for two consecutive weeks according to Samba TV, delivering over one billion viewing minutes. On September sixteenth, his former Ozark costar Laura Linney joined him at the Black Rabbit premiere in New York City, with the pair photographed together on the red carpet at SVA Theater. People magazine captured their reunion, showing Bateman in an all-black ensemble while Linney wore a luminous silver pants set.

During his promotional rounds for Black Rabbit, Bateman made headlines with a September twentieth appearance on Hot Ones where he revealed previously unknown details about his time as a child actor on Little House on the Prairie. He described being hazed by older cast members who pinned him down and gave him chest noogies, though he cleverly got revenge by having the makeup artist create fake bruises to show their parents. He also disclosed casting details for the unmade Arrested Development movie that nearly happened before Netflix revived the series, and discussed being eyed for various roles during that period.

On the business front, Bateman remains engaged with ventures outside acting and directing. SmartLess, his hit podcast with Will Arnett and Sean Hayes, continues running successfully. Additionally, Netflix announced in October that it experienced its best ad sales quarter ever, with shows like Black Rabbit contributing to the platform doubling its upfront commitments and the company projecting forty-five billion dollars in revenue for twenty twenty-five.
