Gluck is currently prepping to direct and produce the dark comedy Jackpot for Global Road and the heist romantic comedy drama Steal Away for Columbia Pictures. Through his company Olive Bridge Entertainment, he is developing an untitled action comedy with Dwayne Johnson for New Line. The company also has various other projects in development at Columbia, Fox Searchlight, and Focus Features, among others.

Gluck most recently released the modern-day reimagining of Annie, which he directed and co-wrote for Columbia Pictures. The film stars Quvenzhane Wallis in the title role alongside Jamie Foxx, Rose Byrne, and Cameron Diaz. Gluck received a Golden Globe nomination for Best Original Song for "Opportunity" from the film, shared with Sia and Greg Kurstin.

In addition to numerous projects in development for both network and cable television, including a series based on Down the Rabbit Hole by Holly Madison, Gluck and Olive Bridge are making the Topher Grace-fronted action comedy series "Treasure Squad" at Amazon, the animated series "Sticks" for Freeform; a television movie "Angry Angel" for Freeform; and the musical docudrama "Encore" for ABC. Olive Bridge produced the animated "Moonbeam City" for Comedy Central, and "The McCarthys," a family sitcom, for CBS. In 2013, Gluck co-created and directed the critically acclaimed "The Michael J. Fox Show" for NBC and "The Loop" for Fox.

Gluck released Friends with Benefits in the summer of 2011 for Sony/Screen Gems, starring Justin Timberlake, Mila Kunis, Woody Harrelson, Patricia Clarkson, and Richard Jenkins, which grossed over $155 million worldwide. His second feature, Easy A, released in September 2010, was a massive critical and financial success, winning Best Comedy Movie at the Critics Choice Awards.
