Vachon has now gone on her own personal Facebook account to post thoughts about the debacle. She’s calling the situation a “nightmare”, and saying that “This was HIS [Joaquin’s] project that he brought to US.”

Like most critics, I’ll be watching Fede Alvarez’s “Alien: Romulus” on Monday, and the review embargo is set to lift on Wednesday at 3pm ET.

The first “Crawl” was a fine-as-it-goes B-movie, set in New Orleans, about a woman trapped in a flooding house filled with alligators. It became a sleeper hit, grossing $90M on a $14M.

It looks as though no film will be hitting all four major fall fests in 2024. There are a few titles doing three of the four, but not all four. Based on the buzz I’ve been hearing, watch out for Brady Corbet’s “The Brutalist” …

Meanwhile, we have another summer hit — $8M previews for “It Ends With Us.” The film has had strong pre-sales the entire week, and the result should lead to a $22M opening day.

A few years ago, Warners Bros greenlit an R-rated animated comedy from filmmaker Genndy Tartakovsky (“Hotel Transylvania”) called “Fixed,” about a dog’s wild last night before being neutered.

The Playlist’s Rodrigo Perez is reporting that the ever unpredictable Joaquin Phoenix might have dropped out of Todd Haynes' gay detective movie at the last minute, leaving the cast and crew in chaos.

There appears to be a rift between “It Ends With Us” star Blake Lively and her director/co-star “Justin Baldoni,” who hasn’t done much press for the film.

Yesterday, in Disney CEO Bob Iger's Q3 earnings statement, the exec listed every 2025 Marvel project, except for one.

The film, originally greenlit for HBO Max in 2021, was supposed to be part of the content tax write-offs at Warner Bros, much like “Coyote v Acme” and “Batgirl.”

Here’s a shocker (and I’m being sarcastic here). Hunter Schafer is confused by reports that “Euphoria” will return. Schafer hasn’t gotten any scripts and hasn’t been told anything about a third season.

Finally, someone bought Paul Schrader’s “Oh, Canada.” It premiered in May at Cannes to mixed reviews and is set to screen next at TIFF and NYFF. A U.S. December release is being set up for the film.

No, 1999 is not being overhyped. It really was that great of a year. It signified the end of a certain type of cinema, and revealed a new kind, one that would shape the 21st century in ways we never could have imagined.

The review embargo has lifted, and Eli Roth/Tim Miller’s “Borderlands” doesn’t have a single positive review to its name. As it stands, 0% on Rotten Tomatoes.

A few months back, I reported how Apple had already greenlit a sequel to Jon Watts’ “Wolfs,” starring Brad Pitt and George Clooney. It’s now been made official.

Jason Reitman’s “Saturday Night” will be headed to TIFF. Will it be a world premiere? I’m hearing Telluride wants to screen it too.

Last week, Martin Scorsese hinted that he wanted to shoot a limited series and that, unlike his “Boardwalk Empire” and “Vinyl,” he’d want to direct every single episode.
