Zack Snyder Warner Bros Not Interested In Making More Movies With Me

“I just finished this really awesome movie for Netflix called ‘Army of the Dead,’” Snyder told Deadline. “We had an amazing experience with [Netflix], I’m trying to write them another movie, and I have two animated series I’m doing with them, and I also have a German-language prequel to ‘Army’ that we did. So, we’re really like trying to stay on that franchise, the ‘Army’ franchise, and I really want to go do ‘Horse Latitudes,’ this summer, if I can....

Zero Fucks Given Review Ad Le Exarchopoulos Soars As Flight Attendant

A pretty but withdrawn Belgian twentysomething who totally lost her bearings before she even had a chance to leave home, Cassandre looked to the sky for escape after her mom died in a car accident, and she found it in the purgatorial solace of a pressurized cabin, where the entire world is rolled up into a metal tube that’s much too small for comfort (especially when flying on the cramped low-budget carrier that sends her puddle-skipping across Western Europe and the Canary Islands)....

Alien Television Series From Noah Hawley Set For Fx

Per Deadline: “The series is billed as being the first ‘Alien’ story set on Earth, and will blend the timeless horror of the original 1979 movie and the non-stop action of the 1986 James Cameron-directed second.” (Disney, apparently, does not consider the “Alien vs. Predator” series to be part of the official franchise.) “We’re moving quickly to bring audiences the first television series based on one of the greatest science-fiction horror classics ever made,” Landgraf said during a Disney Investor Day announcement....

Bob Ross Documentary Netflix Paints Unhappy Portrait Of Joy Painter

That’s the question at the center of Joshua Rofe’s hazy documentary “Bob Ross: Happy Accidents, Betrayal, and Greed.” There was no doubt a real man behind the facade of the television-famous painter, but the film often feels like it’s scraping for a scandalous angle simply to make it worthy of Netflix and its big buzz machine. In the opening credits alone, dark clouds are painted on the horizon (pun very much intended) as Ross’ own son, Stephen, implies that his dear old dad hid many secrets....

Bombay Rose Trailer Netflix S First Animated Film From India

Based on true events, “Bombay Rose” chronicles the struggles of people who migrate to Mumbai from small towns, and the importance of Bollywood movie fantasies to take their minds off living in the ruthless, crowded city. Painted frame-by-frame by Mumbai-based Paperboat Animation Studios, “Bombay Rose” entices with its aesthetic and doesn’t shy away from such topical themes as inter-faith romance, economic migration, and child labor. What’s noteworthy is the way in which Rao designed urban reality with a striking documentary style, while the intricate dream worlds were inspired by India’s rich and varied folk art styles....

Candyman Director Nia Dacosta On Importance Of Juneteenth Watch

“Especially last year, I was thinking a lot about the duality of the Black experience in America,” DaCosta said. “At once, it’s a place of this great hope, which I think is what Juneteenth represents in one way. It’s a celebration of us, of life, of freedom, of possibility. On the other side, it’s incredibly difficult and there’s a lot of pain and they kind of walk hand in hand....

Clarice Review Cbs Shouts Down The Silence Of The Lambs It S Bad

Picking up a year after Clarice Starling tracked down Buffalo Bill, Alex Kurtzman and Jenny Lumet’s continuation quickly positions its lead (now played by Rebecca Breeds) as an outsider at the FBI, who’s despised by jealous colleagues for her highly publicized experience catching a serial killer. (Due to rights issues, the show can’t mention Hannibal Lecter by name.) Her boss thinks she got lucky, the press hounds her like a celebrity, and she just wants to do the work: to help victims....

Coda Review The Formulaic Coming Of Age Tale Gets A Freshening

There’s little surprising about the shape of director Sian Heder’s latest feature: It’s a family drama and a coming-of-age tale that combines familiar beats about finding yourself, breaking free of your family, and making plenty of mistakes along the way into one tear-jerking package. Yet what “CODA” lacks in storytelling originality, it more than makes up for with other touches of ingenuity. Chief among them is that it’s a film that focuses on a deaf family and treats their woes as being just as worthy — and relatable — as innumerable other stories that, at least, initially feel just like it....

Don T Worry Darling Trailer Harry Styles House Is Full Of Secrets

The latest trailer for Olivia Wilde’s psychological suburban thriller “Don’t Worry Darling” reminds us that chaos is the “enemy of progress” in a hauntingly mundane and isolated life corralled by a white picket fence and the promise of everlasting marital bliss. But as Alice (Florence Pugh) grows wary of her husband Jack (Harry Styles) seemingly distracting her with mind-blowing sex (even director Wilde promised the film will be all about “female pleasure”), the facade of a perfect life starts to crack…....

Everything Is 1 Everywhere All At Once At 4 99 On Vod

This week, Daniels’ acclaimed multiverse fantasy is a unanimous #1 across three VOD charts. It came close to this when initially released at $19.99 last month, but at the lower price it has corralled all for the first time — and it’s the first time a film outside a major studio has achieved this. The price drop ($1 less than the usual next step of $5.99) may have helped a little at iTunes and Google Play, which count the volume of transactions....

Falcon And Winter Soldier Finale Review Ending Falls Flat Spoilers

Is it possible to agree with everything a show is trying to say about generational trauma, income inequality, and the dangers of nationalism, and simultaneously struggle with the way in which it uses the medium of television to espouse those thoughts? The obvious answer is, “Of course — the objective truths of our world differ from the subjective views of art.” Which is what makes viewing the final episode of “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier” (Season 1?...

Fatal Attraction Reboot Glenn Close Wants Killer To Be Fragile

Exactly 35 years since Adrian Lyne’s iconic erotic thriller debuted, Oscar nominee Glenn Close gave some sage advice for the revival series: Show more of a well-rounded Alex, and less crazed woman stereotype. “I hope they tell her backstory, her side of the story,” Close told Entertainment Tonight. “[Alex] is a human being in need of great help. She’s a fragile person.” The original ending for “Fatal Attraction” concluded with Close’s Alex killing herself....

Written by screenwriting duo Ann Marie Allison and Jenna Milly, who make their feature debut with the film, “Golden Arm” ably contorts the usual sports film tropes — an unlikely contender, a big final match, plenty of personal demons — into a new take on the genre. Much like dearly departed Netflix series “GLOW,” “Golden Arm” builds a distinct and interesting world for its ladies to wrestle within, never making fun of a setup that seems like an easy target....

The project has languished in development, but it took Steven Spielberg’s involvement to finally get the show off the ground.

The series was developed by Kyle Killen and Steven Kane, and stars Pablo Schreiber as the famous Master Chief....

Inventing Anna Julia Garner Accent Most Difficult Of Her Career

But as Garner told IndieWire, pulling off Anna Delvey’s accent was the hardest thing she’s done in her entire career because of the layers of Delvey’s deception. “I was like, ‘What is her accent?’ I didn’t even know what her accent was,” Garner said. “It’s a hybrid of different accents. This is a girl who said that she was German, and people believed it, but she actually was born in Russia, so she’s not going to have a Russian accent....
