A24 Boards Lenny Abrahamson's New Film, Starring Burke & Hewson

Lenny Abrahamson, the director of "Room" and "Normal People," is set to begin filming his next project for Element Pictures, enlisting Tom Burke and Eve Hewson as the stars. The film, which will be set within Dublin's Jewish community in the late 1970s, has also secured A24 as a production partner, according to Variety.

The upcoming film isn't the only project making headlines in the entertainment world. The Berlinale Series Market and Iberseries Platino Industria are organizing a forum that will welcome projects from various production companies, including Federation Spain, Mariawood Producciones, Funicular, and Boutique Filmes, as reported by Variety. Additionally, film enthusiasts are encouraged to watch the cult classic "Possession," which is available on Shudder. The Verge's Terrence O'Brien described the film as featuring "three of the most unhinged performances in cinema history."

Beyond entertainment, other news stories are also capturing attention. Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Jon Meacham discussed Donald Trump's impact on democracy in an interview. Meacham's latest book is a collection of speeches, letters, and other original texts from 1619 to the present, according to NPR News.

In the realm of science, quantum mechanics continues to intrigue. An article in Wired discussed the concept of ground-state energy, also known as zero-point energy, which remains even when a box is emptied of all visible and invisible contents.
