Although the film has a different title, it is actually a new adaptation of Shakespeare’s play “King Lear.”

Al Pacino, who has been dreaming of this project for a decade, will of course portray King Lear. Jessica Chastain will play the eldest daughter, Goneril.

Behind the camera will be Bernard Rose, known for both “Candyman” and “Anna Karenina.” He is also the screenwriter.

In “Lear Rex,” the aging King decides to divide the kingdom among his three daughters to avoid conflicts. He rejects the youngest daughter, believing in his other children. However, they betray him, plunging him into the horrors of pure madness.
