Apple's upcoming ensemble science fiction drama Swan Song is quickly ramping up its cast. 

After Awkwafina recently joined the movie, it's now being reported that actor Glenn Close has also boarded the project. The Hollywood Reporter has published the news tonight that she will be taking on a lead role in the film that's set in the near future. The basis of the movie will look at how far one will go to make a happier life for the people they know. Naomie Harris has also recently boarded the upcoming streaming project. Oscar winner Benjamin Cleary is set to write and direct. Production is already set to begin in the spring as long as the pandemic begins to ramp down a bit. 

Glenn Close has been a major player for decades. She has an obvious long running resume of amazing films and television series including Fatal Attraction, Damages, The Shield and dozens more. 

Adam Shulman (Defending Jacob) and Jacob Perlin (The Amazing Johnathan Documentary) are both attached to produce the film for Apple's recently launched platform. Mahershala Ali is set as the lead star for the project. 

A quick rundown says that this will be a genre bending feature that will be produced by Anonymous Content in partnership with Apple and Concordia Studio.
