Jason Bateman's Explosive Return: Black Rabbit Trailer Drops, SmartLess Mobile Launches
Jason Bateman BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Jason Bateman is all over the headlines this week, with a major splash on both TV and in business. Netflix sent entertainment outlets buzzing with the official trailer for Black Rabbit, its upcoming limited series premiering September 18, starring Bateman opposite Jude Law. Critics are already calling it his most explosive television role since Ozark, marking Bateman’s return to small-screen crime after recent successes in Carry On and dramatic turns in Air. The show centers on two estranged brothers—Jake Friedkin, played by Law, a charismatic restaurateur, and Bateman’s Vince, the chaotic sibling whose return to New York’s nightlife scene brings car chases, gunshots, old traumas, and a $20,000-a-week debt to dangerous loan sharks. The series, created by Zach Baylin and Kate Susman, features Bateman not just acting but directing the first two episodes and serving as executive producer alongside Law. Bateman shared with Netflix’s Tudum that switching roles—he typically plays the straight-laced problem solver, but this time he’s diving into the unpredictable troublemaker—was a deliberate choice for himself and Law. Law praised Bateman’s “innocence and likability,” suggesting that Black Rabbit will be a true acting showcase and a likely hit with both critics and fans.
Beyond the trailer’s strong reception, outlets like TVLine, UPI, and ScreenRant are framing Black Rabbit as Bateman’s next big legacy move—a subversive answer to Ozark, but set amid Manhattan’s high-pressure hospitality scene. Social media is lit up with speculation about Emmy nominations, and the ensemble cast, which includes Cleopatra Coleman, Troy Kotsur, Amaka Okafor, and Abbey Lee, has drawn further excitement. Expect this project to dominate Bateman’s biography and public image well into next year, should it meet streaming expectations.
Off the screen, Bateman has made business headlines as one of the SmartLess podcast trio—along with Will Arnett and Sean Hayes—rolling out their own branded mobile carrier, SmartLess Mobile. Business Insider and The Wall Street Journal both ran stories about the celebrity invasion of the telecom world, following in the footsteps of Ryan Reynolds’s success with Mint Mobile. The convergence of Bateman’s broadcasting clout with this new tech venture is seen as reflective of the broader trend in celebrity entrepreneurship, fueling both curiosity and plenty of memes online.
As for pure gossip, no fresh tabloid scandals or viral controversies involving Bateman surfaced this week. The news remains firmly focused on his big streaming launch and business moves. Bateman’s gravitas as both a director and actor, and his preference for breaking typecasting, has put him in a uniquely magnetic position at the very top tier of Hollywood this month. All developments reported are verified by outlets including TVLine, UPI, ScreenRant, and Business Insider, and speculation about award prospects remains just that—speculation—until the show drops next month.
