Although Peter Kavinsky is over and out, Noah s relationship with Netflix is set to continue.
Good news for Noah fans, it looks as though he’s going to be back on our screens before he has even left.
As we’re set to get the third and final instalment of To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before this month, Noah has already signed a new deal with Netflix as he’s set to take part in a movie about the GameStop stocks saga.
Very topical at the moment, anyone on Twitter has most certainly come across the current GameStop chaos, whereby hedge funds are fighting against amateur reddit traders who are investing in stock and causing it to skyrocket.
Hollywood loves a based-on-a-true-story underdog epic.
So it s no surprise there are reportedly already three projects being rushed into development based on the GameStop short squeeze rebellion a story that exploded just one week ago. There s an MGM movie in development from author Ben Mezrich (
Bitcoin Billionaires) based on a pitch titled
The Antisocial Network, another in the works from Netflix written by Mark Boal (
Zero Dark Thirty) with Noah Centineo (
The Fosters) attached to star, and a third from a new company that s described as a limited series titled
To the Moon.
One suspects that one of these three will perform quite well. Another not so much. And the third will likely get shelved along the way. Two competing projects on similar topics have often received wide distribution (Steve Jobs docudramas, Fyre Fest documentaries, killer asteroid movies.), but a trio is pushing it.

According to a report by
Deadline, the
To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before actor is gearing up with Netflix for a film about the stock saga.
The film about the battle between hedge fund investors and Reddit traders is already in the early stages.
Mark Boal, Academy Award winning writer is in talks to pen the script, leading many into already speculating the untitled project may create Oscar buzz once it hits the streaming giant.
Apart from that, Makeready founder Brad Weston is all set to produce the film.
Journalist, activist, New York University professor and tech issue expert, Scott Galloway is also in talks to consult on the script. The only star attached to the film is Noah Centineo. Centineo is known mainly for his role as Peter Kavinsky in the
To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before trilogy on Netflix, and his role as Jesus Adams on
The Fosters. It is not yet known what his role will be in the GameStop project.
Also according to Deadline, the intention behind the film is to use the GameStop episode as a way to shine a light on the phenomenon concerning how social media has levelled social playing fields and allowed the masses to challenge status quo gatekeepers, for good and bad.
