John Musker, who worked at Disney for many decades, and contributed to the likes of “The Little Mermaid,” “Aladdin” and “Moana,” left the company six years ago, part of an exodus that had to do with DEI initiatives.

Baker says he perhaps won’t always make films about the subject, but teased that “we’re already talking about the next one and it involves a sex worker.”

Yesterday, A24 released a first look at Dwayne Johnson in ‘The Smashing Machine’ and I had suspected that they might want to rush this one for this year since 2024 lacks prestige contenders.

Adam Wingard, who has directed the last two of Legendary’s ‘Godzilla’ hit MonsterVerse movies, will not be returning for a third installment, multiple sources tell THR.

I’m not sure why A24 recently decided that it was a good idea to acquire Paolo Sorrentino’s “Parthenope,” but the film just screened at Cannes and it’s incredibly vacuous and flat.

At first, he said he only invested $20 million of his own money on the ‘Horizon’ films and then, just a few days ago, claimed it was $38 million. Now, he’s telling a confused Anne Thompson, via IndieWire, that it was $100 million!?

Producer Jerry Bruckheimer is confirming that the “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise will have a few reboots. Bruckheimer is telling EW: “It’s two different movies. We hope to get ’em both made.”

There’s a fascinating movement going on in American indie cinema. Sean Baker and the Safdies are creating what I like to call “Gutter Poetry,” cinema out of the American middle and lower class.

THR is now that 14% of Pixar’s employees have just been laid off as part of Disney’s cost-cutting measures. It will be the biggest restructuring in Pixar's history.

It looks like cameras are rolling on Benny Safdie’s “The Smashing Machine,” being produced by A24. A first look image has been unveiled by the studio.

In April, I had been told, by two separate sources, that Jeff Nichols was in talks to adapt the late Cormac McCarthy’s last two novels, “The Passenger” and “Stella Maris.” Last I heard, he was close to striking a deal with the McCarthy estate to adapt these works.

Donald Trump’s comms director has issued a statement promising legal action against the filmmakers involved in “The Apprentice.”

Now, two years since production wrapped, and formerly stuck in post-production hell, it does look like the end is near. "It's finally finished," Lange, 75, tells PEOPLE "You'll be able to see it in theaters."

In her review, The Daily Beast’s Esther Zuckerman disliked ‘Horizon’ for another set of reasons. Her headline says it all: “Kevin Costner’s ‘Horizon’ Review: A Misogynistic, Racist Mess.”

It pains me to say this, but David Cronenberg’s “The Shrouds” is such a disappointment. I was a major fan of his last film “Crimes of the Future,” but this latest one gets lost in muddled ideas and tons of conspiracy theories.

Mel Gibson’s “Flight Risk,” starring Mark Wahlberg, is officially scheduled for theatrical release on October 18, 2024. A prime fall slot that will see it pitted that same weekend against Paramount’s “Smile 2.”

The sheer risk it took for Ali Abassi to make a film about Donald Trump, and know what? “The Apprentice” works very well as an origin story of what made Trump who he is today.

It didn’t look like John Krasinski’s “IF” was going to hit $30M. Friday’s receipts were average ($9M) but word of mouth travelled (“A” CinemaScore) and the film landed a $34M opening weekend.

Oliver Stone, 77, currently the Chomsky of Hollywood filmmakers, is still fully engaged, plugging away and making docs — his latest one, “Lula,” premiered yesterday.
