According to Deadline, The Baker will tell the story of a quiet, detached man, portrayed by Perlman, who lives alone by his own choice.

The film is being directed by Jonathan Sobol, whose directed films include The Padre, which stars Nick Nolte and Tim Roth, The Art of the Steal starring Kurt Russell and Matt Dillon, and A Beginners Guide to Endings with Scott Caan and Harvey Keitel. The Baker is written by Paolo Mancini and Thomas Michael, who also wrote and starred in the feature Hank and Mike starring Joe Mantegna. The film is being produced by collaborators Jason Jallet (Blue Iguana) and Doug Murray (The Immaculate Room), while John Hills and Andrew Chang-Sang (Stockholm) serve as executive producers.
