Hollywood is ready to get out of quarantine and start making movie magic! Just a day after Warner Bros announced the cast of George Miller’s next movie, Mad Max: Furiosa Netflix announced an A-list cast for Adam McKay’s upcoming film Don’t Look Up. The cast is stacked and includes Meryl Streep, Timothée Chalamet,  Ariana Grande , Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Lawrence, Cate Blanchett, Jonah Hill, Himesh Patel, Kid Cudi, Matthew Perry, Tomer Sisley, and Rob Morgan.

According to Deadline, “the film follows two low-level astronomers who embark on a media tour to warn mankind of an approaching asteroid that will destroy Earth.” McKay will write, direct and co-produce along with Kevin Messick under McKay’s Hyperobject Industries Banner. McKay is known for previously directing Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, Step Brothers and Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues.

Netflix confirmed the news on Wednesday by sharing a tweet with photos of the iconic cast members. “The cast of Adam McKay‘s DON’T LOOK UP is absolutely iconic,” the streaming site tweeted.
