Oscar-winning actor Mahershala Ali, who was supposed to play the titular character, has broken his silence on the project’s collapse, and apparently — the decision wasn’t his.

I wouldn’t be surprised if ‘Brand New Day’ beats “Avengers: Endgame”’s $365M domestic opening, the all-time record. The worldwide numbers are even stronger, with a projected $800M+ debut.

Paramount is now caught in an unexpected battle with Warner Bros., which is also planning to remake ‘Elm Street,’ as both studios race to get their projects made before the proposed merger closes.

The case being made is compelling: John Boorman’s ‘Exorcist II’ isn’t a lazy cash-in, but a subversive, experimental film that challenges the formula of Friedkin’s original.

You get plenty of list-making these days, but documentaries are almost never included; THR has decided to rank the 25 greatest, featuring many essential titles — along with a few unexpected choices.

‘Dune 3’ has an ensemble cast, including Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya, Jason Momoa, Bardem, Florence Pugh, Robert Pattinson, and Anya Taylor-Joy. The film is set to hit theaters on December 18.

Marvel series “Wonder Man” has been canceled by Disney+ after just one season, despite recently receiving a greenlight for Season 2.

“Fortitude,” directed by Simon West, is a World War II spy thriller based on British intelligence operations designed to deceive Nazi leadership. The film stars Nicolas Cage.

“Digger,” a high-budgeted Warner Bros original, set to release in October, just isn’t creating much excitement among moviegoers. The YouTube trailer shows only 4.5M views for “Digger.”

The Daniels, aka Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, will write and direct. Sandra Oh, Sean Kaufman, Michael Gandolfini, and Charles Melton are also part of the ensemble.

This project has been in development for seven years, with lots of back-and-forth and tons of hesitation, but filming is finally slated to begin in Los Angeles in 2027.

This is an over-the-top, ultra-violent, preposterous film. There is absolutely zero reason to take this film seriously while watching it.

Here’s a Sundance 2026 title. Alex Huston Fischer and Eleanor Wilson’s “Wicker,” starring Olivia Colman and Alexander Skarsgård, was acquired by Black Bear and now has a trailer.

A nifty behind-the-scenes account of “Heat 2” has just been published. It includes some details I had previously reported, along with some new information.

AMC CEO Adam Aron has published a Variety op-ed fully endorsing the proposed Warner Bros.-Paramount merger. He argues that combining the companies would strengthen Hollywood.

Tomi Adeyemi is at it again. Twenty-four hours after the first trailer for “Children of Blood and Bone” hit online, the author behind the bestselling novel and co-writer of the film has once again disowned the project.

“The Odyssey” has also just surpassed the $330M domestic total that “Oppenheimer” made during its entire run, and it will likely hit the $400M mark by the end of the weekend.

Ceylan has become a staple of Cannes with his 2014 Palme d’Or winner “Winter Sleep,” as well as other prize winners such as the masterful “Once Upon a Time in Anatolia.”

The project is untitled and currently only described as a TSA comedy, with the only known detail being that Safdie flew Johnson to New York multiple times to work on it after seeing “BlackBerry.”

Universal and Vin Diesel are currently “solving some big problems” on the final film, many of them having to do with the immense budget the actor is seeking.
