The 52nd Telluride Film Festival has officially dropped its lineup, and as usual, it’s a mix of world premieres, Venice/Cannes holdovers, and potential Oscar bait.

Here’s the latest trailer for Yorgos Lanthimos’ “Bugonia” which screened this morning at rhe Venice Film Festival. We’re under review embargo on this one for another few hours. Stay tuned.

It’s been six years since László Nemes’ “Sunset,” the film that tried to follow “Son of Saul” and never really stood a chance.

Ridley Scott, 87, isn’t resting on his laurels. He’s going full speed ahead with another epic project.

Garland aggressively pursued the A24-backed adaptation of FromSoftware’s mega-hit game by making the most epic pitch imaginable.

Some good news for us folks who believe Kusama to be a worthy filmmaker, she’s set up her next film, a thriller, no plot details just yet, titled “Stan.” Daisy Edgar-Jones (“Twisters”) has the lead role.

Chris Columbus, who first brought “Harry Potter” to the big screen, is as puzzled by HBO’s upcoming TV reboot as we all are.

Peter Farrelly (“Green Book”) is set to direct a film inspired by the story of how Sylvester Stallone came to make his 1976 boxing classic “Rocky.”

The 82nd Venice Film Festival kicked off tonight with Paolo Sorrentino’s “La Grazia,” which reunites the Italian filmmaker with acting muse Toni Servillo.

The filmmaker, who was canceled from Hollywood eight years ago, somehow mounted the funding needed and made a film about a father-son relationship set during a middle east conflict.

None other than Pedro Pascal — who else! — is circling the lead role left vacant by Phoenix. There are now plans to shoot the film in January 2026. Ramirez is still attached as co-lead.

Last month, Coppola admitted that he initially wanted “Megalopolis” to be “weirder” and that he was working on a new cut with additional material, including dream sequences.

We now have our first official look of Law as Putin in “The Wizard of Kremlin” — seen above. There’s an uncanny resemblance. This is good casting. 

The embargo lifted on “Caught Stealing,” and reviews are pretty good, not great, but good. It’s not ambitious like, say, “Black Swan,” but it seems like a fun time at the movies.

Spike Lee’s reimagining “stands shoulder to shoulder with Kurosawa’s film”? A wild take, and one which I believe not too many critics would be in agreement with.

Van Sant is planning, as his next project, to tackle one of the more infamous personalities of the present decade: Sam Bankman-Fried.

Barbera gets asked what films from this year’s Venice lineup might contend for Oscars. Turns out, he seems to have given up on predicting. Mostly due to the Craig snub.

During a GQ roundtable with Lee and co-star A$AP Rocky, the two-time Oscar winner admitted he’s simply had enough of the medium he’s dominated for over four decades.

The film has completed post-production and received an MPA rating — R for “strong/bloody violent content, sexual content/nudity and language.”

Allen now has to defend his recent appearance in Russia, but also semi-apologize, in a statement sent over to the Associated Press and CNN.
