Cast and Crew Details on A Naked Singularity

The original novel of A Naked Singularity follows the fictitious story of Casi, a public defender who works in Manhattan and has never lost a trial. Nothing lasts forever, they say. So when Casi loses his first case, he begins to question himself, his sense of justice and the American Judicial System.

The movie will be directed by Chase Palmer, who also worked on “IT” as a writer. And although this is going to be Palmer’s directorial debut, he has teamed up with accomplished cast and crew members to ensure A Naked Singularity reaches expectations. Also joining the executive producing team are David Matthews (Narcos, Law and Order), Ridley Scott (The Martian, Hannibal), and Kevin J. Walsh (Manchester by the Sea).
