‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ is Officially Highest-Grossing Movie of All-Time at Domestic Box Office

Now the question is whether Spidey can become the first movie to cross $1 billion domestically. With its legs having slowed down, and $63M in receipts still needed, I highly doubt it.

MPA: ‘Clayface’ and ‘The Social Reckoning’ Ready With “R” Ratings

Nancy Meyers’ $150 Million Romcom Delayed Indefinitely at Warner Bros

April 10, 2023 Jordan Ruimy

That $150 million Nancy Meyers Rom-Com from Warner Bros. has again hit a ditch.

Meyers' first film in almost ten years had been set up at Netflix for over a year now, but both parties could not come to an agreement on the budget. Meyers wanted $150 million, Netflix stood its ground at $130 million.

Then David Sazlav’s Warner Bros came to the rescue and greeted Meyers with open arms. They agreed to finance the film, which has the title “Paris Paramount.”

Now, Puck is hearing that Meyers’ rom-com has reportedly been delayed indefinitely due to scheduling conflicts. Meyers plans to revisit the film in the future.

The film had Scarlett Johansson, Penélope Cruz, Michael Fassbender and Owen Wilson rumored to star. It was set to become the most expensive romantic-comedy of all time. Don’t ask why Meyers needed that much money, nobody could figure it out, but we gathered at least half of it was going to go its stars’ salaries.

The project is semi-autobiographical as it parallels Meyers’ own life. She and fellow writer-producer Charles Shyer had a longtime romantic and professional pairing, working on films such as “Private Benjamin”, “Baby Boom”, “The Parent Trap” and “Father of the Bride”.

Meyers was a very hot commodity in the early aughts with a crowd-pleasing formula that resulted in “What Women Want,” “Something’s Gotta Give,” “The Holiday,” “It’s Complicated” and “The Intern.”
