Of course, we all know the rule: take these reactions with a grain of salt rather than treating them as gospel. Still, I will say that the film tested like gangbusters earlier this year, and Lionsgate clearly has confidence.

‘Compassionate Release': Christopher McQuarrie's First Non-Tom Cruise Film in 25 Years Stars Denzel Washington, Taps ‘In Bruges' DP Eigil Bryld

Bryld shot "In Bruges," "The Holdovers" and "House of Cards." That seems like the right fit for what is a smaller, character-driven crime story, and a change of pace for McQuarrie after years of stunt-heavy theatrics.
