Besides Out Late, Perlman is also currently attached to star in two crime movies, including The Instigators with Casey Affleck and Matt Damon, and Thug with Liam Neeson.

What is Out Late about?
“The film follows the story of recent widower Angelo who is forced to confront a deeply hidden personal truth when he meets and strikes up an unlikely friendship with openly gay dancer Edmond. Though he’s never had the courage to admit it to himself, let alone his family, church and community, Angelo is gay,” reads the synopsis. “When Angelo’s adult children and friends start to suspect he is dating a man, they do everything they can to shove him back into the closet. Navigating the fears and prejudices of everyone around him, Angelo must choose between fitting in and finally being true to himself. Better out late than never.”
Out Late will be directed by Thomas Michael from a screenplay he co-wrote with Paulo Mancini. They previously worked with Perlman in 2022’s action thriller The Baker. It is produced by Michael and Barbara Shrier. Production is expecting to begin in the late summer of 2024 in Montreal.
