Following the one-two punch of Hereditary and Midsommar, filmmaker Ari Aster's next project is called Disappointment Blvd. We already learned that Joaquin Phoenix was tapped to star, and now a new detail has emerged: the film will shoot in Montreal.

As Cult MTL points out, the film is scheduled to shoot in Montreal from June until October. 

Details are scarce, but an IMDb listing explains that the film is "an intimate, decades-spanning portrait of one of the most successful entrepreneurs of all time."

Further, Aster has suggested that the film will be a "nightmare comedy." It's Phoenix's first project since his Oscar-winning turn starring in Joker.
