According to Deadline, Brad Pitt will star in and produce Apple’s ‘Connector,’ with Darius Marder directing his first feature since ‘Sound of Metal.’ The project is in development and centers on a sky-walking ironworker in 1970s New York. Marder apparently isn’t done with metal. He co-wrote the script with Nina Marder, based on a story by Derek Cianfrance.
