'Where'd You Go, Bernadette' is a forthcoming comedy-drama that is set to release on August 16, 2019. Directed by Richard Linklater from a screenplay by him, Holly Gent, Vincent Palmo Jr., Michael H. Weber, and Scott Neustadter.

The movie revolves around the story of an architect and mother who is agoraphobic and has troubles sleeping. One day she suddenly vanishes leaving her 15-year-old daughter to solve the mystery and go find her.

Nelson stars as Bernadette's daughter Bee, and Crudup plays the role of her husband. Elgie and Kristen Wiig play their neighbors.

We even get to see that she has issues sleeping and accidentally caused a mudslide in her neighbor's house. The trailer also reveals that Bernadette has been missing the creative outlet in her life and in the end we see a friend who warns her that she needs to get back to work otherwise she will become a menace to society.
