Damson Idris and Jonathan Levine Team for Apple and Chernin Thriller ‘Sacrament’

Damson Idris, the star of Apple’s hit racing drama F1, is reuniting with the streamer for a new thriller titled Sacrament, with Jonathan Levine attached to direct. Apple Original Films is developing the project alongside Chernin Entertainment, with Idris also serving as a producer. The film is in early development, but the pairing signals Apple’s commitment to building on its relationship with Idris after F1’s global success. Jonathan Levine, known for films like 50/50 and Warm Bodies, brings a strong track record in character-driven genre storytelling. Sacrament marks another high-profile collaboration between Apple and Chernin, who have previously worked together on projects like the acclaimed series See. For Idris, this move cements his rising status as both a leading man and a producer, expanding his footprint behind the camera. The thriller genre continues to be a priority for streamers seeking broad audience appeal, and this project’s pedigree suggests it could be a major draw. As development moves forward, expect more details on casting and plot to emerge.
