Warner Bros. decided to announce, via TikTok video, that a sequel to “Practical Magic” is officially in the works. The 1998 film, directed by Griffin Dunne, starred Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman.

The usual suspects are named in Screen’s spitballing of the upcoming 81st Venice Film Festival: Leigh, Larrain, Guadagnino, Phillips, Martel, Salles and Schnabel.

Absolutely wild how the review embargo for Oz Perkins’ “Longlegs” has lifted, more than a month before it's supposed to be released. Almost no studio does this unless they have absolute confidence.

Rian Johnson has shared a first image of “Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery,” which has begun production in London.

Here’s an interesting interview with Richard Linklater in which he ponders the disappearance of films for adults at the multiplex. He blames infantilism and the scourge of superhero flicks that have invaded the big screen.

Brad Bird and troubled productions, name a more iconic duo. Then again, I’ll watch whatever Bird directs. It’s as simple as that. Even if it means trudging through his 2015 Disney bomb “Tomorrowland” (remember that one?)

Hearing shaky things about this one. It might have the same fate as Audrey Diwan’s “Emmanuelle” and not show up at either Cannes or Venice … However, Telluride is a real possibility for a world premiere. Just what I’m hearing.

Richard Linklater’s “Hit Man” is now streaming in the U.S. on Netflix, and theatrically in a host of other countries, including Canada. So, what did our readers think of the film?
