So this next film by The Daniels, Scheinert and Kwan, of “EEAAO” fame, is looking exactly like we expected it to be.

The film involves much more than just a hurricane. The script includes a gunman, major flooding, killer crocodiles, a nuclear explosion, aliens, and a secret magical bunker under the Waffle House.

Watch out for “The Odyssey,” which, after a $1.8M Wednesday, is back at #1 at the domestic box office, dethroning “Spider-Man: Brand New Day,” which grossed $1.7M.

There are a few laughs, mostly at the start, and occasional visual treats, including a jaw-dropping cave setting in the final stretch, but the movie increasingly feels like an experiment in narrative improvisation.

World Premieres will include Simon Stone’s “Elsinore,” Jesse Eisenberg’s “The Debut,” Mike Leigh’s “Tender Loving Care,” Andrew Haigh’s “A Long Winter,” and The Zellner’s “Alpha Gang.”

The actresses being considered to play Adele Astaire — Fred’s older sister — in the Paul King-directed biopic are now down to Monica Barbaro and Margaret Qualley.

Andrew Garfield leads the peasant revolt in Paul Greengrass’ “The Uprising,” and the first reactions are mostly mixed-to-negative, which is unusual these days

Hüller, known for her roles in “Anatomy of a Fall,” and “The Zone of Interest,” will take on the role of Wolfgang Herrndorf, who began recording his experiences after receiving a terminal brain tumor diagnosis.

“The Runner,” which is basically another riff on “Run Lola Run,” a movie centered on characters moving through a city, is getting some of the worst reviews of the year.

Yes, ‘Doomsday’ was shot without a finalized script. It was being written as production rolled on. The screenplay was still under development on set, with daily rewrites and updates in progress.

Schrader has been open to AI in filmmaking. He frequently posts AI-generated images of himself on Facebook and has admitted to using AI for script ideas. Did it come up with this new version of “Three Guns at Dawn”?

The film is at its best when it’s simply being loud and messy — which isn’t enough of the time. And it’s fitting that a movie about The Sun should feel exactly that way.

The upcoming series is being touted as one of the most expensive shows ever made, with a jaw-dropping $2 billion budget. That’s around $300M per season.

Variety has confirmed that Focus Features is mounting a major Oscars campaign for Inde Navarrette’s breakout performance in “Obsession,” with her being pushed for Best Actress.

The film stars Guy Pearce as Rupert Murdoch and O’Connell as Larry Lamb, portraying the 1969 launch of the sensationalized The Sun and its lasting impact on journalism.

Speaking to Inverse, Daley and Goldstein confirmed one major aspect of their reboot that will no doubt spark Trekkie fury: this movie will feature “all-new Star Trek characters.”

This past weekend, “Buddy” grossed an estimated $5.4M on just 1,258 screens, doubling initial box-office projections. It’s the highest opening of the year for a film playing on fewer than 1,800 screens.

These two films represent ambitious animated swings that have opted to skip the big four festivals — Venice, Telluride, TIFF and NYFF — and instead make their festival bows in London.
