“In the Grey” has just been given a rating in Germany, with a runtime of 100 minutes — which means the film has wrapped post-production. They’re just going to release the film as is.

Messerschmidt — known for his work with Fincher (“Mindhunter,” “Mank,” “The Killer”) and Michael Mann (“Ferrari”) — is a somewhat inspired choice.

The online hive-mind has struck again — this time aimed at Rolling Stone for leaving Ryan Coogler’s “Sinners” off its “Top 20 Movies of 2025” list. I’m serious. This is what it’s come down to.

The New York Film Critics Circle (NYFCC), the most important critics group in the country, announced their 2025 winners. Paul Thomas Anderson’s “One Battle After Another” won the top prize.

So, apparently, Hirokazu Kore-eda is releasing two movies next year. We already know about “Sheep in the Box,” which began production in September and was picked up by Neon for U.S. release.

Quentin Tarantino has completed his list. Guesting on The Bret Easton Ellis Podcast, he announced his 20 best films of the 21st century — only one film allowed per director.

Based on the reactions I’d heard over the last few months, the trailer is exactly what I expected. The film is a chamber piece set in a single location, with sporadic concert footage sprinkled throughout.

Like many of my cohorts, I attended a 9 a.m. screening on Monday of James Cameron’s third entry in the franchise. With the review embargo still in place, only social media reactions are permitted, and they’ve been mixed so far.

Panahi is now says that he won’t seek asylum in any country and in fact plans to return to Tehran to serve his jail sentence after Oscar season concludes. A brave man.

Tarantino’s career is filled with “what ifs,” unrealized projects that almost happened but didn’t. The most famous may indeed be “The Vega Brothers.”

There could even be a deal finalized before Christmas. The offers are binding, meaning the board can move swiftly and approve an agreement if it meets their objectives.

Spielberg’s UFO film, which has been going by a few working titles — “Disclosure,” “The Dish,” and “Non-View” — will mark the filmmaker’s 30th collaboration with composer John Williams.

“Frontier Crucible” is directed by Travis Mills, and the script was apparently, and officially, written by one Harry Whitington, who died in 1989 and wrote the 1961 novel the film is based on.

Panahi’s sentencing comes months after his recent Palme d’Or win. The director had previously faced a travel ban, periods of detention, and was often forced to shoot films under tight restrictions in Iran.

Stewart has strongly hinted that directing will now be a central focus for her, admitting there are “10 more movies I want to make f*cking yesterday.”

Kristen Stewart, Oscar Isaac, and Elizabeth Olsen are attached to star in “Flesh of the Gods,” a vampire thriller to be directed by Panos Cosmatos (“Mandy”).

Lilly Wachowski is asked about co-directing 1999’s “The Matrix,” and how the right has basically hijacked the “red pill” movement for their own benefit.

Why in the world would Levy even admit this? Now there are countless speculative think pieces questioning what’s going on with ‘Starfighter.’

Three posters for the film dropped this morning, stamped “In Theaters April.” A trailer arrives tomorrow, and I’ll share more about the film once it’s out.
