Thomas Vinterberg’s “One More” won the 2021 Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film and the BAFTA award. The plot centres on four bored schoolteachers in crisis who start drinking daily to see if it is true that a small dose of alcohol makes people happier.
American comedian, actor and director Chris Rock will film a remake of Thomas Vinterberg’s Oscar-winning film “One More”, starring Mads Mikkelsen. The film will be produced by Leonardo DiCaprio with his company Appian Way, in 2021 there were reports that the “Killers of the Flower Moon” star could also star in the film.
As a director, Rock, known primarily as a comedian and actor, established himself with “The Top Five,” a film for which Rock himself wrote the screenplay. The film was bought by Paramount Pictures at the 2014 Toronto Film Festival for $12.5 million, the biggest deal at the screening. Rock also directed the successful films Head of State and I Think I Love My Wife. And in the autumn, news broke that he is also preparing a film about Martin Luther King.
