Jason Bateman, Jude Law fall down 'Black Rabbit' hole
Los Angeles Times

Far be it from me to tell anyone how to direct their career, but can I just say how glad I am to learn that Jason Bateman, who spent four seasons in the darkness of "Ozark," is making a comedy again.

Netflix JASON BATEMAN, left, and Jude Law in "Black Rabbit." Review ROBERT LLOYD TELEVISION CRITIC
(A "dark comedy," but still.) That's not the series he's starring in at the moment for Netflix, however, but something called "DTF St. Louis," for HBO, from "Patriot" creator Steve Conrad, which isn't arriving until next year. Fingers crossed, we'll all be around to see it.
In the eight-episode miniseries "Black Rabbit," which premieres Thursday, Bateman and Jude Law play brothers Vince and Jake Friedkin, respectively, who long before the story begins were partners in a rock band, the Black Rabbits — successful enough that Vince is recognized in a bar (but not so successful that the fans can remember his name, or the name of the band).
More recently, they had been partners in a far downtown Manhattan restaurant, also called Black Rabbit, though Vince's level of current participation is muddy, (At one time, he ran the upstairs bar.) It isn’t a comedy, in spite of Vince's Michael Bluth-like habit of dropping ironic quips into stressful situations.
