In December 2017, Quentin Tarantino pitched an idea to J.J. Abrams for an R-rated ‘Star Trek’ movie.

Todd Phillips’ “Joker” was this fascinating, dark and despairing arthouse movie that happened to have also been made by a big studio. That’s how I viewed the film when I saw it four years ago.

Last night, Alfonso Cuaron and Gaspar Noe took part in a masterclass at the London Film Academy and one of our readers, Nico, was in attendance.

Terrence Davis, the filmmaker behind such landmarks as “Distant Voices, Still Lives” and “The Day Closes” has sadly passed away. He was 77.

During an interview with Collider, Guillermo Del Toro confirmed that he’s cast Christoph Waltz in his upcoming adaptation of Mary Shelley’s classic monster story, “Frankenstein”.

Luca Guadagnino confirmed, via a Q&A at the BFI London Film Festival, that he is no longer involved in the Audrey Hepburn biopic, starring Rooney Mara.

Sean Durkin’s “The Iron Claw,” being released theatrically on December 22nd, is apparently not premiering at any of the fall festivals. This likely means that A24 sees zero awards potential in this film.

Speaking with Inverse, Stahelski confirms already has ideas written down for five more John Wick sequels. Yes, chapters 5-9.

Spike Lee has seen “Killers of the Flower Moon” and thinks it’s a “great film.” He also believes Gladstone can win the Oscar, calling her performance a “lead role”:

“King of Comedy” is one of Martin Scorsese’s most under appreciated films; mostly because, when it was released in 1983, it wasn’t loved by critics. Scorsese was coming off the sobering triumph of “Raging Bull” and both films couldn’t have been less alike.

We had first reported that George Miller’s “Furiosa,” and Warner Bros, were eyeing a Cannes 2024 works premiere and now it’s been backed up by Variety.

After “CODA,” director Siân Heder probably has plenty of projects to choose from when it comes to what her next movie might be. The sky‘s the limit and the industry seems to have come calling.

Greta Gerwig’s “Barbie” will be damn-near impossible to avoid this awards season, so get used to it. It has its legions of fans, including critics, and I can easily see it getting nominated for Picture, Director …

I don’t have high hopes for Matt Brown’s “Freud’s Last Session,” which is set to world premiere at the AFI Film Festival in late October.

I like British filmmaker Steve McQueen; in fact, he’s probably one of the best directors working today. With that said, his 4-hour doc, “Occupied City,” which I saw at Cannes, is a major artsy bore.

Comedian Chris Rock has been tapped by Universal Pictures to direct the “definitive cinematic biopic” about the life of Martin Luther King Jr.

Variety’s Clayton Davis has his fair share of detractors, but I agree with his assessment that Ryan Gosling could potentially win the Best Supporting acting Oscar for “Barbie.”
