The review embargo has lifted, and I more or less agree with the assessment — 67 on Metacritic is fair. However, look at that: the film is at 96% on Rotten Tomatoes

Harmony Korine, who has no involvement in the sequel, is puzzled by it; why would you even want to continue this story?

David Ellison must be breakdancing with joy this morning. I mean, why wouldn’t he? This is the best news he’s gotten in months.

Sayles attributes his absence to a simple but frustrating reality: financiers are no longer interested. He has two screenplays ready— including a Western, starring Chris Cooper.

Leigh is one of the great living filmmakers — Oscar-nominated five times for writing and twice for directing (“Secrets & Lies,” “Vera Drake”) — and at 83, he refuses to retire. And why should he?

Jerry Bruckheimer has confirmed the sequel and admitted he was “surprised and thrilled” by the film’s Best Picture nomination at the upcoming Oscars.

Hoffman, 88, can be seen later this year delivering a stellar performance in “Tuner,” a well-reviewed indie that deserves your attention. He has now also hopped on board Scott Cooper’s “Time Out.”

Hanks will be slipping back into the uniform of Captain Krause, and much like the first film, he also wrote the screenplay.

The Mummy” franchise has been officially revived. Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz have closed deals to reprise their roles. A May 19, 2028 theatrical release has been set up.

I loved Frank Darabont’s 2007 The Mist, and no offense to Flanagan, but I don’t see the need for a retread when there’s already a perfectly fine film version of King’s novel.

Parker has now been given yet another chance; he shot “Newborn” in 2020, starring David Oyelowo, and despite the film being in the can for nearly six years, it is finally coming out.

Sean Durkin’s “Deep Cuts” has found an actress to replace O’Dessa A’zion — who had to drop out due to not being the right ethnicity for the role, after much backlash.

The sequel is written by Chris Nash, but he’s stepping back from the director’s chair this time around and has been replaced by Nathaniel Wilson

You’ve got to hand it to Paramount/Skydance CEO David Ellison: he refuses to take no for an answer. The man is relentless.

Now, although the press release does not mention whether this is a short film, one would guess it is. Then again, how short? Given the synopsis, this one could run as long as 30 minutes, maybe more.

The review embargo has lifted on Emerald Fennell’s “Wuthering Heights,” and—absolute shocker—those first-wave social media reactions were a mirage.
