‘Brand New Day’ Has Sold 75 Million Tickets. ‘Titanic’ Sold 137 Million, and ‘The Force Awakens’ 108 Million

Due to inflation, raw box-office dollars no longer tell us nearly as much about how many people actually saw a movie. ‘Brand New Day’ might soon be the all-time box office champ, but an asterix is needed.

Robert Eggers’ ‘The Northman’ Currently Undergoing Reshoots

July 23, 2021 Jordan Ruimy

Robert Eggers’ “The Northman” is currently undergoing an intense series of reshoots, this after politely received test screenings put a damper on the possibility of it being released in 2021. 

Suffice to say, Eggers’ third feature, after “The Witch,” and “The Lighthouse,” has had a somewhat problematic journey thus far. What we have here is an ambitious and massive film that is said to have a $110 million budget. 

“The Northman” has a screenplay co-written by Icelandic novelist and poet Sjón Sigurdsson. Expect ambiguously spooky storytelling. The film stars Nicole Kidman, Alexander Skarsgård, Anya Taylor-Joy, Bill Skarsgård, and Willem Dafoe. There is no word yet on what the plot is about, and I doubt, much like with his other films, we will get details before release.

It was announced a few months ago that the film will open on April 8th, 2022.
