A year ago, Amazon surprised everyone by inking a deal with Woody Allen. The retail-giant-turned-film-studio booked Allen for an original TV series. While that project is still in the works, today Amazon announced another project with the iconic and polarizing filmmaker.

Amazon acquired Woody Allen’s latest feature film, an untitled project starring Steve Carrell, Jesse Eisenberg, Blake Lively, Parker Posey, Kristen Stewart, and a handful of others.

The film, a romantic comedy set in the 1930s, will have a traditional theatrical release and then will become available exclusively to Amazon Prime members.

Allen’s TV series, which stars Elaine May and Miley Cyrus, begins shooting next month.
