These numbers are way off the film’s original tracking metrics, which were comparable to those of other successful Statham movies. “Mutiny” is running at about half or less of the box office expected.

The worst-kept festival secret of the last 24 hours is that Zack Snyder’s “The Last Photograph,” which is still seeking U.S. distribution, will be a surprise late addition to the Toronto International Film Festival.

Speaking of sequels—the unusual kind, which are always the best kind—here’s a major update on one that’s been brewing since the pandemic.

The sequel looks like a vehicle to reunite Kidman and Bullock. Moviegoers are responding. This might turn out to be Warner Bros.’ biggest hit of the year—until “Dune 3”—and will easily outpace “Supergirl.”

The latest on “The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth,” starring Brad Pitt, written by Quentin Tarantino, and directed by David Fincher, is that it’s getting an unusually restricted theatrical release.

“Coyote vs. Acme,” came very close to never getting released, yet, it almost doubled the weekend box office of Ridley Scott’s much-pricier “The Dog Stars.”

Festival press conferences have turned into landmines of political questioning, to the point where some artists would probably prefer to turn down being a juror at Cannes, Venice, or Berlin.

Hathaway is set to play a racecar team owner and engineer. Cruise will reprise his role as NASCAR driver Cole Trickle. Jonathan Levine (“Long Shot,” “50/50”) is confirmed to direct.

It’s been seven years since Alma Har’el’s feature debut, “Honey Boy,” which was written by and starred Shia LaBeouf — she is now set to direct her next film, with a very talented cast.

Scott is suggesting something more significant than a simple return to the series: the filmmaker appears to believe the franchise has drifted off course.

Critics were asked to submit their personal five favorite Scott films. As you can imagine, since Scott has directed 30 films in a span of 5 decades, there was an assortment of choices available.

Hollywood has officially run out of ideas. Or, at the very least, it has reached the point where the origin story of Hooters is now being made as a feature film.

Stephen Frears, 85, has been trying to make “Wilder & Me,” a film about the final, faltering chapter of Billy Wilder’s legendary career, but like his subject, he’s facing his own late-career battle with momentum.

Starring Helen Mirren, the film reimagines the final chapter of Patricia Highsmith’s life through a fictional encounter with an ambitious young literary agent, played by Alden Ehrenreich.

Let’s start with “Coyote vs. Acme,” almost deleted by Warner Bros., saved by Ketchup for $50M, and now a sleeper hit? Tracking sat in the single digits three weeks ago, and now, it’s climbing.

Scola has shot Michael Sarnoski’s three films — “Pig,” “A Quiet Place: Day One,” and “The Death of Robin Hood” — as well as the acclaimed indie “Sing Sing.”

There have even been fan petitions circulating to convince Netflix to bring it back. Maybe those fan petitions should have been directed at Fincher instead.

He explains that even if another film were approved, “it wouldn’t get made for two years,” leaving him uncertain about “what state I’ll be in at 85, if I’m still here.”

A person with knowledge of the situation suspects Navarrette’s reps may have helped leak the “Heat 2” narrative to Page Six: she was never offered the role in the first place.
