Harvey Keitel stars as a celebrated acting teacher in “The Method,” the first feature from director and co-writer Gaurav Bhardwaj, produced by “CTRL” banner Travelin Bone Entertainment alongside Imagination Infinite Motion Pictures. Mina Sundwall (“Murdaugh: Death in the Family,” “Lost in Space”) also features, as do Rakshit Bhuchar and Rohan Maletira, both of whom make their feature debuts with the film. The story plays out in New York’s cutthroat acting scene, where a talented Indian actor chasing his craft falls under the sway of Keitel’s teacher.
As ambition, friendship and artistic ideals pull against one another, the mentor challenges every one of them to consider what they would give up to succeed. Production has wrapped in the New York and New Jersey area, and the film is expected to release in 2027.

I want audiences to experience the same conflict our characters face – the tension between the relationships we value and the ambitions we choose to pursue.” Travelin Bone was set up by Marc Sternberg, Steve Garrow and Naresh Malik.

The traditional boundaries between industries and markets are becoming less relevant, creating an extraordinary opportunity to bring together artists from different backgrounds to tell compelling stories.”
