Scott is suggesting something more significant than a simple return to the series: the filmmaker appears to believe the franchise has drifted off course.

Critics were asked to submit their personal five favorite Scott films. As you can imagine, since Scott has directed 30 films in a span of 5 decades, there was an assortment of choices available.

Hollywood has officially run out of ideas. Or, at the very least, it has reached the point where the origin story of Hooters is now being made as a feature film.

It was previously reported that Tom Hanks is set to portray the 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln, in Duke Johnson’s upcoming live-action/stop-motion hybrid film

Stephen Frears, 85, has been trying to make “Wilder & Me,” a film about the final, faltering chapter of Billy Wilder’s legendary career, but like his subject, he’s facing his own late-career battle with momentum.

Starring Helen Mirren, the film reimagines the final chapter of Patricia Highsmith’s life through a fictional encounter with an ambitious young literary agent, played by Alden Ehrenreich.

Let’s start with “Coyote vs. Acme,” almost deleted by Warner Bros., saved by Ketchup for $50M, and now a sleeper hit? Tracking sat in the single digits three weeks ago, and now, it’s climbing.

It’s been six years since Janicza Bravo last directed a feature, with her acclaimed 2020 black comedy “Zola” marking her most recent film behind the camera.

Scola has shot Michael Sarnoski’s three films — “Pig,” “A Quiet Place: Day One,” and “The Death of Robin Hood” — as well as the acclaimed indie “Sing Sing.”

There have even been fan petitions circulating to convince Netflix to bring it back. Maybe those fan petitions should have been directed at Fincher instead.

He explains that even if another film were approved, “it wouldn’t get made for two years,” leaving him uncertain about “what state I’ll be in at 85, if I’m still here.”

A person with knowledge of the situation suspects Navarrette’s reps may have helped leak the “Heat 2” narrative to Page Six: she was never offered the role in the first place.

Picturehouse Cinemas, a UK cinema chain, have confirmed they will not screen “Ali G: Who Iz I?” In October — a decision that comes amid a campaign accusing the character of racist stereotypes.

Cinephiles another Todd Field movie, and although we might have to wait for his next directorial effort, “The Girls” will have to suffice for now.

I am very curious how Cristian Mungiu’s “Fjord” will be greeted this fall — the Palme d’Or-winning film has turned into a culture-war ticking time bomb among critics, who are more split on it than you might think.

Here’s another “Heat 2” update. Odessa Young has nabbed the role of Charlene, previously played by Ashley Judd. Young is coming off her supporting turn in “Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere.”

What are the odds this turns out to be good? Netflix isn’t giving it an awards-qualifying theatrical release, and the just-released trailer isn’t doing anything for me.

Some wondered if it might arrive this year, but its absence from the fall festivals and continued lack of a release date suggest Amazon/MGM may be holding it for next year.

Netflix has finally released a trailer for “Possible Love,” which will hit theaters on October 23 and arrive on Netflix on November 6. The official runtime is 2 hours and 44 minutes.

Beyond the fact that ‘Camp Miasma’ plays like a meta tribute to ‘80s horror slashers, it’s easy to understand why Schoenbrun would want a crack at the franchise.
