What a coincidence that Eric Roth is telling the Final Draft podcast that he’s currently writing a screenplay for Scorsese. Is it “Devil in the White City”? What else can it be?

Yesterday came the news that Robert Eggers’ next film would be “Werwulf” which has already set up a December 25, 2026 release.

The biggest surprise of the morning must be Walter Salles’ “I’m Still Here” getting nominated for Best Picture. Wow. The film’s lead actress (Fernanda Torres) is also in the Best Actress category.

Martin Scorsese is set to direct “The Devil in the White City” with Leonardo DiCaprio to star in the lead role. 20th Century has come onboard the project. There is currently no script, and we don’t really know if it’ll be Scorsese’s next project, but it’s happening!

On 09.03.24 I listed 11 films that were still missing from the movie year calendar. Two of them have now shown up in today’s announcement of the 2025 SXSW Film lineup.

Forget about the formerly rumored Edward Berger. The InSneider is hearing that not only is ‘Ocean’s 14’ happening, but that David Leitch (“Bullet Train”) is in talks to direct the sequel.

This “scoop” is utter lunacy, but I should probably tackle it since you’re going to be seeing an innumerable amount of articles written because of it.

Paramount has set up a January 15th, 2027 release in IMAX. Production is set to begin filming in South Africa in the coming weeks. 

Reviews for Mel Gibson’s “Flight Risk” are only supposed to drop on Thursday at 6PM ET which is also when previews begin.

Another actor has joined Christopher Nolan’s “The Odyssey.” This time it’s Jon Bernthal, no doubt in a supporting role (via Deadline)

It was to be expected. Coming off the immense success of “Nosferatu,” Focus Features wants to do more business with Robert Eggers, and they’ve even already set up a release date for his next film.

So this is actually coming out on March 7, right? There’s no reason to believe Warner Bros will again delay Bong Joon Ho’s “Mickey 17.” It’s already screened in Korea and will premiere next month at the Berlin Film Festival.

The film very much adheres to the “Blumhouse specialty” — shoe string budget horror that’s not meant to makes waves, but rather turn in a few million in profit. Has Jason Blum turned into the modern-day Roger Corman?

Much thanks to a source over at Production Weekly who has tipped me that long-time Christopher Nolan collaborator and cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema’s name is on the production sheet for “The Odyssey.”

It’s been announced that the film will, finally, have a very quiet world premiere at the Glasgow Film Festival in March. The fact that they’ve decided to screen it at this fest, and weren’t more ambitious with their plans, is cause for concern.

I decided to compile a quick list of the 10 most interesting Netflix films set for 2025 release. As you can see, it’s still not that impressive, but new projects from Baumbach, Bigelow, Del Toro, and Berger will no doubt be campaigned for awards.

Ryan Gosling is in talks to star in Shawn Levy’s Star Wars movie which might be shooting as early as this year (via THR).

The “Minari” filmmaker went the blockbuster route with last year’s “Twisters,” which grossed over $370M worldwide in the summer, and he’s now closed a deal with Skydance to direct “The Traveler,” a feature adaptation of the sci-fi novel Traveler by Joseph Eckert (via Deadline).

Last year, I reported on Macon Blair’s remake of “The Toxic Avenger,” starring Peter Dinklage, and how distributors deemed it “too out there” and “unreleasable.” Well, guess what? Someone seems to think it’s releasable.
