UPDATE: An insane Wednesday for “Zootopia 2,” storming past expectations, with a tally of $40M in ticket sales. This film is going to hit the $170M domestic mark by Sunday.

That Paul King–directed Fred Astaire biopic, which is supposed to star Tom Holland, has hit a legal roadblock over at Sony.

I’m not even a fan of Guillermo del Toro’s “Frankenstein,” but this is an update that’s worth celebrating.

Here’s some good news: indie distributors are teaming up to deliver theatrical screenings for 2020 and 2021 releases that had their big-screen runs “impeded or nixed” by pandemic restrictions.

The filmmaker “grabbed a pen,” and “started writing titles.” He’s come up with his own 20 best films of the 21st century; Only one film allowed per director.

“Hunger Games” author Suzanne Collins has long denied any direct connection to the Japanese film — a claim that grows harder to buy each time the similarities are stacked side by side.

Sydney Sweeney really needs a hit right now, and coming off the “Christy” debacle, she must be thanking her lucky stars that she already has another film lined up in December.

James Cameron has suddenly changed his tune when it comes to “Ghosts of Hiroshima” being his potential next film. Turns out he only hyped it up because he was trying to sell copies of the book version?

Of course a filmmaker doing yet another slavery drama is going to cast the actress who won an Oscar for playing a slave. This is Hollywood 101.

Although no cast or plot details have been revealed yet, all we know is Johnson describing the story as a ’70s paranoid thriller with “a tinge of sci-fi.”

Penn will not only likely earn an Oscar nomination but could very well take home the award, delivering a performance so loony, hilarious, and terrifying that I’m having a hard time imagining he won’t win.

Here’s yet another remake because Hollywood can’t ever come up with new ideas. There’s a “Baby Boom” reimagining in the works at Amazon/MGM.

This must be the single funniest turn of events you will likely find in recent Hollywood memory.

IP-crazy Hollywood will never stop. There was no chance Universal Pictures was going to let “Wicked: For Good” be the final film of the franchise.

Kubrick protégé Todd Field, who was on the set of “Eyes Wide Shut” and took part in some of the post-production work with Kubrick, is amping up theories that it was not a final cut.

The film is reportedly tracking for a massive $200M+ opening in China alone. Combined with other countries’ ticket sales, it’s on pace to earn $500M worldwide by Sunday evening.

The release date is February 20, 2026. Not necessarily the most confident scheduling move on the part of A24 but I’m definitely willing to give this one a shot.

I actually expected “Some Like It Hot,“ which would have been the predictable choice, but consider me delighted by “The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad!” being named the greatest comedy of all time.

So, what exactly has Alejandro González Iñárritu concocted in his latest film? We barely know anything about it. All we’ve been told is to expect the unexpected.
