Thanks to Juneteenth being a federal holiday, It’s a quiet day on the film front, but that makes it the perfect moment to turn attention to Venice.

Back in January, a “Superman” teaser dropped, and instead of awe and admiration, it gifted the internet with a close-up of the Man of Steel that had everyone asking, “Why does his face look like it’s eating the rest of his body?”

The upcoming legal drama “Nuremberg,” written and directed by James Vanderbilt, stars Russell Crowe as Nazi war criminal Hermann Göring.

The film currently has a 78 on Metacritic and sits at 96% on Rotten Tomatoes. Why did Sony make critics wait until the very last day to publish their reviews? It’s mind-boggling.

Jeremy Saulnier’s mysterious A24 project now has a title, “October.” Not just that, Cory Michael Smith will star in the lead role. The film is set to shoot this fall.

So, we’re talking a trilogy of “Mindhunter” movies here. Wouldn’t that be something? Here’s hoping David Fincher is planning to direct all three.

Sources close to the filmmaker suggest the 86-year-old director feels strongly that “Megalopolis” should not be watched on a television screen. 

There’s been these persistent rumors, for well over a year now, that Johnny Depp would be returning to the ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ franchise.

The Criterion Channel has secured the rights to stream Wong Kar Wai’s “Blossoms” in the United States. A fall release is being eyed. As far as the international front, MUBI will be taking care of several regions.

Kathryn Bigelow’s long-anticipated Netflix film, previously known only as the “Untitled White House Thriller,” finally has a title: “House of Dynamite.” It marks Bigelow’s first film in eight years.

It’s a game of hype inflation, where even mediocre films are branded as “masterpieces.” These reactions aren’t reviews; they’re marketing in disguise, and anyone taking them as serious critical barometers is being willfully naive.

It looks like Issa Rae’s long-developing reboot of “Set It Off” is finally gaining traction. Playwright and TV writer C.A. Johnson (“Filthy Rich”) has been brought in to polish the screenplay.

Ron Howard apparently has two new projects in the works. According to Puck News, Howard’s actual next film looks to be “Alone at Dawn,” an adaptation of the nonfiction book by Dan Schilling and Lori Longfritz.

Scott Cooper has directed a biopic tackling singer-songwriter Bruce Springsteen and the tumultuous events surrounding the recording of his 1982 landmark album, “Nebraska.”

Given how aggressively mediocre the ‘Jurassic World’ franchise has been over the last twenty years, it’s only fair if your excitement for “Jurassic World: Rebirth” is muted.

Rejoice, stoners! Fire up the nostalgia (and whatever else you’ve got lying around), because John Cho and Kal Penn are eyeing a return to their most iconic roles.

If these forecasts prove accurate, “Elio” would register the second-weakest domestic opening in Pixar’s history, only outperforming “Elemental”, which opened to $29.5 million.
