I’m hearing Robert Elswitt is the DP on James L. Brooks’ “Ella McCay” — he’s coming off the beautiful black & white photography he produced on Netflix’s “Ripley.” Elswit used to be Paul Thomas Anderson’s go-to cinematographer.

A source — who has worked on several Marvel movies — is now spilling the beans to Vulture about the high degree of difficulty in making the film, which included multiple reshoots, and action set pieces that ran up the budget.

Kevin Costner has decided to side with the Netflix algorithm, which recently had ‘Horizon’ as the most streamed film in January, on any platform, with over 40M hours watched, and proclaim the film “one of the biggest” of 2024.

I was wondering what was going on with this one, shot in early 2023, and stuck in post production limbo ever since. It turns out that a straight to streaming fate has landed upon Geremy Jasper’s “O’Dessa.”

A sequel to “The Accountant” is officially releasing in theaters on April 25. Amazon will produce the film. Gavin O'Connor is directing and Ben Affleck will reprise his role. A trailer has just been released for the film.

“Remain” will shoot in August. Shyamalan is working with a new DP on this one as Adolpho Veloso, who shot the acclaimed “Train Dreams,” is billed as the cinematographer.

Francis Lawrence, who directed the 2005 film, has just given us the most promising update to date, and he seems to be hinting at an imminent and official announcement coming soon.

Margaret Qualley, Josh Brolin and Guy Pearce have joined the cast of Ridley Scott’s “The Dog Stars,” with Jacob Elordi starring as the lead. Production is scheduled to begin at the end of April in Italy.

This is beyond just a remake, its intentions are to be as identical as possible to the 2010 animated original. The shots are also framed in the exact same way.

No surprise, “Captain America: Brave New World” is being panned by critics. We all saw this coming. As it stands, ‘Brave New World’ has a 43 on Metacritic (based on 37 reviews), and 52% on RT.

Shot on an iPhone during the COVID-19 lockdown of 2020, Besson’s “secret” film is being tagged as a “love story for the ages,” starring newcomers Matilda Price and Luke Stanton Eddy.

The untitled project is the most expensive production in Korean film history. The costs, translated into USD, would be that of around $60M. Sony Pictures is rumored to be circling the project with plans for a worldwide release.

Speaking of comebacks. We’re seeing quite a few of them taking shape. It’s not just Will Smith, or even Armie Hammer, who are in the middle of cleansing their past misdeeds. Jonathan Majors is also in the middle of a cleanse.

A sequel to 2005’s Will Smith-led romcom “Hitch” is in the works, but original director Andy Tennant is saying he’s not part of the project. Smith is going solo in developing the sequel without him.

Disney CEO Bob Iger’s promise to “quiet things down” at Disney “after years of culture wars” was taken one step further this late afternoon. DEI is downgraded and “trigger warnings” are toast at the mouse house.

Jacques Audiard is a bruised man. This year marked the first time that the renowned French filmmaker had an Oscar contender, and I don’t think he ever wants to experience that again.

As Christopher Nolan continues to prep for “The Odyssey,” set to shoot later this month, details are starting to leak out about the film.

Whatever his next film might be, Sorrentino confirms (via Entertainment Weekly) that it won’t be any of his two projects which were supposed to star Jennifer Lawrence (“Sue” and Mob Girl”).

First details on the film, albeit very cryptically, but it sounds like Von Trier’s recent bout with Parkinson’s and his mortality will be taking center stage in the film
