Maestro (2023) is staying in the musical realm, but changing the dynamic of the relationship. Cooper isn’t going to be playing the overshadowed former star. Instead, Cooper is going to be playing renowned musical talent Leonard Bernstein as he becomes one of the most iconic conductors of all time. The lens through which we will view many of Leonard’s actions is his wife Felecia, who will be played by two-time Oscar nominee Carey Mulligan.
