Oscar-winner Anne Hathaway has wrapped up filming for the upcoming period drama Armageddon Time. The actor took to her social media handle and made the announcement, calling her time on sets as a "gem of an experience". Helmed by James Gray, the film is touted to be a coming-of-age story based on the director's primitive years in Queens, New York during the mid-1980s. The powerful star cast also includes two-time Oscar winner Cate Blanchett, Donald Sutherland, Oscar Isaac, and Robert De Niro.

Production on Armageddon Time, which was initially announced in 2019, commenced last month in New Jersey.

On the other hand, De Niro is collaborating with Leonardo Di Caprio in Martin Scorsese’s next movie Killers of the Flower Moon. According to reports, the movie, which is based on David Grann's 2017 bestseller of the same name, will explore the serial murder of members of the oil-wealthy Osage Nation, wherein the string of brutal times came to be known as the Reign of Terror.
