Chase Sui Wonders in “Goblin” Talks: Production Could Start Before Year-End

TVS News AI, editorially supervised, presents Chase Sui Wonders in “Goblin” Talks: Production Could Start Before Year-End.

On October 29, 2026, The Hollywood Reporter revealed that Chase Sui Wonders is in talks for “Goblin.” The actress is therefore moving closer to an A24 project that has been announced as a raunchy comedy. This would be another potential step following the Emmy-winning success of “The Studio.”

The report also names the previously announced core of the cast: Kenneth Branagh voices the title character, the Goblin. Skyler Gisondo and Will Forte are also part of the cast. The source gives no details about Wonders’ potential character. Consequently, production details from other reports about the project cannot be confirmed.

Chase Sui Wonders Could Expand the Cast of “Goblin”

Chase Sui Wonders’ name appears in The Hollywood Reporter’s story. The magazine initially describes her as someone being considered for the role and later says she will join the project. Above all, this means that her name is associated with “Goblin.” However, the source provides neither an official confirmation nor any details about her role.

A move to “Goblin” would make sense for the actress’s career because the comedy fits her established work. This is not a claim about the specific character, but a direct reference to the interview from which The Hollywood Reporter quoted in September 2025. Wonders recalled Seth Rogen’s “Pineapple Express” at the time and said: “I remember growing up with Pineapple Express and thinking: This is waiting for me in adulthood.”

Her verdict on “This Is the End” was particularly emphatic: “I’m sticking with this: This is the last great American comedy,” she said. This enthusiasm helps explain why the opportunity with “Goblin” could interest her. According to the available reports, the film is explicitly set to be raunchy, meaning crude and comedic.

Kenneth Branagh Voices the Goblin

Kenneth Branagh has been cast to voice the title character. This is the most concrete casting detail: Branagh is not merely part of the ensemble but is set to speak the Goblin himself. Skyler Gisondo and Will Forte have also already been announced as cast members.

The production and casting community is deliberately keeping quiet about the plot. The report explicitly states that the story details are being kept under wraps. There is likewise no information about Wonders’ role, the filming location, her contract or a possible release date.

This means that “Goblin” already has a concrete cast, but there is still no complete picture of the film. The four names mentioned provide the current status; they reveal neither the genre in detail nor the significance of the title character.

The Comedy Suits Wonders’ Own Comedy Biography

Wonders has made her mark on “The Studio” not only through a leading role. The series introduced her Quinn Hackett, whose journey from assistant to executive is chronicled. She will reprise the role in the second season, which is due to begin in 2027. The project itself has been described as Emmy-winning.

Speaking about working with Seth Rogen on “The Studio,” she said: “They really let me be a freak, and that was so liberating. It encouraged me to embrace my inner jester.” And about her next step: “I just want to do more of it, because ultimately, it’s really fun to laugh.”

It is precisely this combination of comedy, ensemble work and playing a character who cannot quite take herself seriously that makes “Goblin” relevant to the report. The plot remains under wraps, but the explicitly raunchy tone and the already-cast title character at least provide a clear anchor for the genre.

Wonders Has Two More Projects on the Horizon for 2027

Alongside “Goblin” and the second season of “The Studio,” Chase Sui Wonders has further confirmed projects lined up. In “Slayground,” an A24 film by Jeremy Saulnier, she appears alongside others. The film is currently in production and is scheduled for release on January 29, 2027.

She is also currently filming “Naughty,” a holiday comedy by Olivia Wilde. There, she stars opposite Jennifer Aniston and Peter Dinklage. This means that “Goblin” is not the actress’s only upcoming connection to A24, even though no details are provided about a possible leading role in “Slayground” either.

For her further career, this is a busy period: “Goblin” could be the first of several new film roles, while “The Studio” brings her back in 2027 and “Slayground” already has a confirmed theatrical release date. The sources do not reveal which projects will be completed first or whether “Goblin” will ultimately move ahead.

The Current Status

Chase Sui Wonders is in talks for “Goblin,” while Kenneth Branagh, Skyler Gisondo and Will Forte already belong to the announced cast. The plot remains a secret, as does Wonders’ character. So far, only one thing is clear: the project is set to be a raunchy comedy, and the actress’s previous comedy work makes her a natural fit for that direction.

Agency and Upcoming Projects

Wonders is represented by UTA and Sloane Offer Weber & Dern. Alongside “Goblin,” her name is attached to further projects, including “Slayground” on January 29, 2027, “Naughty” and the second season of “The Studio.”
