Last December, I broke the news that Netflix had dropped Adam McKay’s “Average Height, Average Build.” McKay then quickly jumped into a new project, this one about climate change.

Daniel Goldhaber directs the remake. He turned a lot of heads with last year’s taut, tense and terrific “How to Blow Up A Pipeline.” I was also a big fan of his 2018 breakout, “Cam.”

Director Zack Snyder’s sci-fi epic “Rebel Moon” premiered on Netflix in last December, and we’re also getting the sequel, “Rebel Moon Part Two: The Scargiver,” in April, but that’s not all folks.

We already know that Denzel Washington and Halle Berry will be starring in Lee’s film, which is being helmed by A24 and Apple Studios. The film will be a remake of Akira Kurosawa’s 1963 crime thriller of the same name.

Leos Carax was a guest at the Doha Film Institute’s Qumra event in Qatar. The filmmaker spoke about his career, his total hatred of digitally shot films and his upcoming 40-minute cinematic self-essay.

Andrew Scott stars in Netflix’s “Ripley,” based on Patricia Highsmith’s novel. The “All of Us Strangers” actor portrays the sinister grifter, originally portrayed by the likes of Matt Damon, John Malkovich and Dennis Hopper.

Filmmaker Jim Sheridan, a close friend of the actor, is telling Screen that he regularly speaks to Day-Lewis and he’s pretty sure that whatever hopes we might have for an acting comeback won’t be coming to fruition.

“Oppenheimer” DP Hoyte van Hoytema has won the American Society of Cinematographers, the most prestigious awards body of the craft. I guess the ASC loved all the close-up shots in Nolan’s film.

This past January, Mann did confirm his plans to shoot “Heat 2” in 2024. A few days later, he mentioned that he wanted to shoot it on film — something he hasn’t done since the aughts.

This weekend was all about “Dune: Part Two,” and not much else. And, for good reason. The sequel to the 2021 film, based on Frank Herbert’s sci-fi novel, brought in $81 million between Thursday and Sunday.

In what amounted to a considerable upset, Cord Jefferson took home the USC Scripter Award for his “American Fiction” screenplay, besting its closest competitor, Christopher Nolan and “Oppenheimer.”

I gather some of our readers went to see the film this weekend. What did you think? My review was positive. It’s an upgrade of the first one — both visually and story-wise.

For some reason, journeyman director Renny Harlin has managed to convince a studio to let him direct three new ‘Strangers’ movies (yes, three), all hitting theaters in 2024.

I didn’t expect Benny Safdie’s “The Smashing Machine” to roll its cameras this early, but a Production Weekly listing has production on the A24-produced film set to begin in April.

No offense to ‘Across the Spider-Verse,’ which I liked, but, for the longest time, Sam Raimi’s “Spider-Man 2” was known as not only the best Spidey movie ever made, but also one of the best comic book movies ever made.
