Woody Allen’s “Coup de Chance” is being released this coming April in the U.S. It’s his best reviewed film, 84 on RT, since 2013’s “Blue Jasmine” (although, I’d say, “Irrational Man” “Wonder Wheel” and “Cafe Society” were just as good, if not better).
Allen has hinted that ”Coup de Chance,” his 50th film, might not be his last one. He keeps reiterating that it all depends on whether he can get financing, which would most likely come from European money.
Some good news. In a new interview with Spanish filmmaker David Trueba, the 88-year-old Allen confirms that he is currently trying to launch a new film, which could start shooting as early as this summer in Italy. No other details were given.
Last fall, Allen had stated that he had a “great story” for a film set in NYC and that “it's one of the best ideas I've ever had.” Has he just moved the setting to Italy? Maybe this is a totally different film.
