Maestro Photos Show Bradley Cooper’s Leonard Bernstein Transformation

As production continues on Maestro, the first official behind-the-scenes photos from the set of Netflix’s forthcoming Leonard Bernstein biographical drama have been released.

The Maestro photos, which you can check out below, provide us with our first look at Oscar nominees Bradley Cooper and Carey Mulligan as they transformed into the respective characters of Leonard Bernstein and Felicia Montealegre. Two of the photos also feature Cooper as an older version of the acclaimed conductor.

Maestro will span over 30 years in telling the beautifully complex story of the marriage between Bernstein and his wife, Felicia Montealegre. Joining Cooper are Carey Mulligan as Felicia Montealegre, and Jeremy Strong as John Gruen.

Cooper’s main focus on the project has always been the “charged and complex relationship” between Bernstein and Montealegre. The star and filmmaker have reportedly been working closely with Bernstein’s children Jamie, Alexander, and Nina, over the past couple of years.

Maestro is co-written by Cooper and Josh Singer with Martin Scorsese, Steven Spielberg, Cooper, and his Joint Effort producing partner Todd Phillips (Joker), Kristie Macosko Krieger, Oscar-nominated producer Emma Tillinger Koskoff (The Irishman, Joker), and Fred Berner and Amy Durning set as producers.

Spielberg’s Amblin Entertainment is still attached to the project which was initially set up at Paramount Pictures. The streamer will be giving the film a significant theatrical release before it moves exclusively to Netflix.
