Guy Ritchie at an event for Edge of Tomorrow - Senza domani (2014)
Guy Ritchie Exits as ‘Road House 2’ Director
Guy Ritchie at an event for Edge of Tomorrow - Senza domani (2014)
Guy Ritchie has exited as the director of “Road House 2.”

It’s not yet clear why Ritchie has parted ways with the Amazon MGM project, which sees Jake Gyllenhaal reprising his lead role as Dalton. The film is set to begin production this September.

Will Beall is writing the script for “Road House 2.” Plot details remain under wraps. Producers include Atlas Entertainment’s Charles Roven and Alex Gartner, as well as Gyllenhaal for his Nine Stories Productions with Josh McLaughlin. The cast was shaping up to include new faces like Dave Bautista, but it’s unclear if the directorial shake-up will affect the call sheet.

2024’s “Road House,” a reboot of the 1989 classic starring Patrick Swayze, followed Gyllenhaal as a former UFC fighter struggling to get by. He takes up work as the bouncer of a Florida Keys bar, finding himself roped into a war of outlaws, bikers...

Hailee Steinfeld Joins Miles Teller in Paramount’s ‘Winter Games’
Image
Hailee Steinfeld will star opposite Miles Teller in Winter Games, a sporty romantic comedy from Paramount Pictures.

Paul Downs Colaizzo, who wrote and directed the sporty-themed Brittany Runs a Marathon, is helming the feature and co-wrote the script with Patrick Cunnane.

The story is set in the high-stakes arena of the Winter Olympic Games and, per the studio, centers on a perpetually overlooked skier and a self-sabotaging hockey legend that collide at their breaking points. Their unexpected connection threatens her chance for a medal and his shot at a comeback as they navigate romance and redemption in the Olympic Village.

Tim and Trevor White are producing on behalf of Star Thrower alongside Teller.

Steinfeld is coming off quite the eventful spring. Not only did she marry Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen in May but she co-starred with Michael B. Jordan in Sinners, Ryan Coogler’s original supernatural horror movie. The feature,...

Ne Zha 2 (2025)
A24 and Cmc Pictures are joining forces to bring an English-language version of Ne Zha 2, the runaway animated box office sensation from China, to theaters across North America this summer.

The English version will feature Oscar-winner Michelle Yeoh in a lead voice role. The film will open in the U.S., Canada, Australia and New Zealand on Aug. 22, screening in Imax, 3D, and other premium large formats.

It is also the fifth highest-grossing film worldwide overall, with nearly all of its revenue coming from the Chinese mainland.

Directed by Yang Yu (aka Jiaozi), the film is the long-awaited sequel to 2019’s Ne Zha, a modern reimagining...

Taylor Kitsch Teams With Filmmaker Peter Landesman On Hostage Pic ‘Eleven Days’
Taylor Kitsch
Taylor Kitsch (Lone Survivor) is set to star in Eleven Days, an indie hostage pic from filmmaker Peter Landesman that’ll shoot in Texas in September.

The film is set in the sweltering heat of a Texas summer in 1974, as head of the Texas Department of Corrections Jim Estelle (Kitsch) plays a deadly game against the ruthless Federico Carrasco, a convicted heroin dealer who has taken over the Huntsville Penitentiary and is holding dozens hostage after his pre-planned escape has gone awry. Lines between captor and captive, justice and survival, begin to blur as the siege spirals for 11 endless, terrifying days.

Based on the book Eleven Days in Hell: The 1974 Carrasco Prison Siege at Huntsville, Texas by William T. Harper, the film was written by Kevin Sheridan with revisions by Landesman. Vincent Newman and Vance Howard will produce.

Kitsch is gearing up for Prime Video’s August 28 release...

Image
Eddie Huang’s documentary feature “Vice Is Broke” is coming to Mubi on August 29. Mubi has now unveiled the trailer for the film. “Vice Is Broke” — which tackles the rise and fall of Vice magazine — premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2024 and was nominated for Doc NYC’s Grand Jury Prize that same year. Watch it below.

According to a release, the movie covers Vice from its ’90s roots as a scrappy Montreal alt-punk magazine to its heyday as a $5.7 billion media empire of the “indie sleaze era” to its 2023 bankruptcy. Huang gives the film an insider’s perspective that is billed as a “disaster capitalism exposé that’s emblematic of an era.” Huang previously hosted two seasons of “Huang’s World,” a food-and-culture-centric docuseries that aired on Vice’s Viceland television channels.

Stellan Skarsgard Talks About ‘Nazi’ Ingmar Bergman: ‘He Was the Only Person I Know Who Cried When Hitler Died’
Image
Stellan Skarsgård opened up about working with Ingmar Bergman at Karlovy Vary Film Festival.

“My complicated relationship with Bergman has to do with him not being a very nice guy. He was a nice director, but you can still denounce a person as an asshole. Caravaggio was probably an asshole as well, but he did great paintings,” said the Swedish actor.

“Bergman was manipulative. He was a Nazi during the war and the only person I know who cried when Hitler died. We kept excusing him, but I have a feeling he had a very weird outlook on other people. [He thought] some people were not worthy. You felt it, when he was manipulating others. He wasn’t nice.”

Skarsgård, in town to present “Sentimental Value” and pick up Crystal Globe award at the festival, also discussed Joachim Trier’s latest film.

“I’ve seen him really see the actors he’s worked with.

Image
Venice Classics will screen restorations of Stanley Kubrick’s Lolita and Pedro Almodóvar’s Matador as part of an 18-film line-up at the 82nd Venice Film Festival (August 27-Septemer 6).

Lolita is a US-uk co-production, adapted by Kubrick from Nabokov’s novel, with James Mason and Sue Lyon in the leading roles. It first played at Venice in 1962.

Matador is one of Almodóvar’s early works. The 1986 erotic thriller sees Antonio Banderas play a student matador who wrongfully confesses to murder.

Every DC Character Cameo In James Gunn's Superman, Explained
Image
"Superman" might be the first big-screen outing for James Gunn's DC Universe, but thanks to some supporting supers, it's already a thriving one. We always knew that the likes of Nathan Fillion, Edi Gathegi, and Isabela Merced were taking to the skies as Guy Gardner (a Green Lantern), Mr. Terrific, and Hawkgirl, respectively, but what might come as a surprise are the other notable DC characters that cross the flight path of David Corenswet's new take on the Man of Steel.

Aiding in making what feels like the most comic book movie ever made, characters flit in and out of Supes' new story, some of whom only have a few words to say on the matter of an alien being assigning himself as Earth's latest problem solver. But the fact that these characters only have a limited amount of screen time is an asset, because it makes the...

Almodóvar’s 1986 erotic thriller “Matador,” featuring Antonio Banderas as a young bullfighter and exploring themes of sex and violence in the bullfighting world – a film that Quentin Tarantino has cited an inspiration – is part of a clutch of European titles in the selection. It also includes de Oliveira’s first film “Aniki-Bóbó”; Marcel Carné’s classic noir “Quai des brumes,” starring Jean Gabin and Michèle Morgan, which was a prizewinner at Venice in 1938; and Kieslowski’s “Blind Chance, which heralded his famed “Decalogue.”

Intramovies has picked up interational sales rights for Italian drama “Mosquitos” (“Le Bambine”). Directed by Valentina and Nicole Bertani, it will premiere at Locarno Film Festival’s official competition.

Valentina Bertani’s already behind well-received doc “The Crown Shyness,” shown in Venice and nominated for David di Donatello. Nicole Bertani is making her feature debut.

Inspired by their own childhood, the “deeply personal story” – now in post-production – is set at the end of the 1990s. Eight-year-old Linda drifts from her wealthy grandmother’s Swiss villa with her carefree mother, Eva. In Italy, they meet sisters Azzurra and Marta.

“We crafted a strong visual identity with an ever-roaming camera and lush, ‘90s-inspired saturated colors, drawing the audience into a film where restless, unpredictable shifts in perspective refuse to let them slip into passive watching,” the directors said in a shared statement of the Locarno International Competition player.

Nicholas Hoult Used A DC Comic Book Line As Lex Luthor's Mantra In James Gunn's Superman [Exclusive]

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links.

Spoilers for "Superman" to follow.

If James Gunn's DC Universe is going to host the silver screen Superman for the time being, then rest assured: the casting of Metropolis' three central characters leaps and soars. Those three are David Corenswet as Clark Kent/Superman, Rachel Brosnahan as his reporter girlfriend Lois Lane, and Nicholas Hoult as his scheming scientist businessman nemesis Lex Luthor. All three actors feel born to play these parts (even if Hoult originally auditioned for Superman himself).

/Film's Bill Bria spoke with these three actors about their work on "Superman," with Hoult discussing how he researched Lex's character and inhabited it. One of the Superman comics he read that stuck with him the most was writer Brian Azzarello and artist Lee Bermejo's 2005 mini-series "Lex Luthor: Man of Steel." That book turns Luthor from the villain...

James Gunn
Sorry, Dean Cain – of course Superman is woke, he fights injustice
James Gunn
James Gunn’s latest Man of Steel has copped flak from some predictable quarters, but the truth is, superheroes have been subverting the powerful, sticking up for the underdogs, and punching moral cowardice since the 1930s

Dean Cain, you may have read, is very upset with the new Superman. The erstwhile Man of Steel, who played the last son of Krypton on TV in Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman from 1993 to 1997, thinks James Gunn has gone too far with his description of Kal-El as an “immigrant that came from other places and populated the country” in the new DC film.

Speaking to TMZ, Cain pondered: “How woke is Hollywood going to make this character? How much is Disney going to change their Snow White? Why are they going to change these characters [to] exist for the times?”...

James Gunn's Entire DC Universe Timeline Explained
Image
We may receive a commission on purchases made from links.

Spoilers for "Superman" to follow.

"Superman" is here and, Highfather willing, it's the beginning of a new DC Universe on film. James Gunn isn't just the movie's director, he's co-president of the new DC Studios with Peter Safran and is charged with assembling a DC Universe on film and television. The fate of "Superman" will determine the future of that Dcu and possibly parent studio Warner Bros'.

But there's messiness, because Warner Bros already spent a decade trying to make a cinematic universe out of the DC Comics world. That effort was called the DC Extended Universe. Gunn was involved back when the Dceu was still ongoing; he wrote-directed "The Suicide Squad" and created its TV spin-off, "Peacemaker."

Gunn has pretty consistently maintained that the Dcu is a fresh start, but it's not a clean break either. In a 2023 post on Threads,...

France’s Champs-Elysees Film Festival, Sophie Dulac’s Event Dedicated to French and American Movies in Paris, Shutters After 14 Editions
Image
The Champs-Elysees Film Festival, created by distributor-exhibitor Sophie Dulac in 2012 to build a bridge between French and American film industries and cultures, is shuttering after 14 editions.

Dulac’s decision to end the festival comes on the heels of a tumultuous 14th edition, which ran June 17-23 and saw the 10 members of its two main juries (notably filmmaker Alice Winocour) stepping down in reaction to a pair of investigative articles published in Le Monde and Liberation reporting toxic management over at Dulac’s companies. Dulac has denied the accusations.

The festival has also faced a crisis in recent years due to the successive closure of movie theaters alongside the famed Champs Elysée Avenue and rising competition from other fests such as Deauville, which are courting French and American talent and movies.

In a statement on Wednesday, Dulac said, “It is with great emotion that I announce the end of the Champs-Élysées...

Alberto Rodriguez’s “Los Tigres,” backed by Movistar Plus+, and Netflix title “She Walks in Darkness,” produced by “Society of the Snow” director J.A.

One of the biggest Basque movies ever, Asier Aituna’s “Karmele” screens out of competition in a selection of Spanish titles which is far more eclectic than many “A” festivals, ranging from thrillers – “Los Tigres,” “She Walks in Darkness” – to historical epic (“Karmele”) to intimate drama (“Maspalomas”), family tales grounded in singular social realities, doc features such as the tender bio “Flores para Antonio” and comedies, as the...

How James Gunn's Superman Differs From Past Versions
Image
This article contains spoilers for "Superman."

Superman, aka Kal-El of Krypton, aka Clark Kent of Metropolis and Smallville, Kansas, has existed as a pop culture figure for 87 years. His image, name, and origin story have become so ingrained in pop culture that he's achieved iconic status. His costume's "S" shield logo is instantly recognizable around the world, and while the character has enjoyed a variety of super powers throughout his long and complex history in the pages of comic books and on the big and small screens, everyone knows that Superman can fly and he stands for truth, justice, and the American way. Perhaps not necessarily the American way as it is, but the ideals that the country is supposed to represent.

While there are constants in his character ever since his creation by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster in 1938, there have been many more differences, as seen in the...

‘I’d be proud to be thrown out of America!’ Eric Idle on Trump, life after Python and not talking before lunch

Ahead of his UK tour, the former Monty Python star responds to questions from Catherine Zeta-Jones, David Mamet, Janet Suzman, Steve Coogan, Bill Oddie and others

When news broke in 2021 that Eric Idle had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, dismay was followed by relief when he survived to get the all-clear. Now 83, Idle is thriving and about to embark on his first UK tour since 1973.

Over haddock and chips in London last month, a gentle and friendly Idle answered questions submitted by readers and fellow writers, actors and comedians about his time as a Python, Broadway smash Spamalot – his musical adaptation of Monty Python and the Holy Grail – as well as selfies, Peter Cook and why he feels sorry for the royals.

‘Abraham’s Boys: A Dracula Story’ Review: An Intriguing but Sluggish Postscript for the Count’s Nemesis
Image
Plenty of horror movies have shifted the focus from vampires to vampire hunters, imagining an underground network of stake-drivers combatting the elusive breed of bloodsuckers. Sometimes the two sides overlap, as in the “Blade” films. “Abraham’s Boys” has the gist of an original angle that goes straight to the primary source of modern vampire mythologies.

Here, the protagonist is Dutch undead expert Dr. Abraham Van Helsing, who’d been called to England to fight a supernatural nemesis in Bram Stoker’s 1897 novel “Dracula.” That polymath, famously played by everyone from Peter Cushing, Laurence Olivier and Anthony Hopkins to Willem Dafoe (in last year’s “Nosferatu”), is now a recluse in the New World, hiding out from spectral pursuers 18 years after he’d helped orchestrate the Count’s extinction.

The twist is that fear of reprisal has turned this learned man into a paranoid tyrant, holding his family hostage in joyless...

James Gunn's Superman Recruited A Major Marvel Star To Play Jor-El
Image
This post contains spoilers for "Superman."

In the history of "Superman" movies, perhaps the only role to hold a weight similar to that of The Last Son of Krypton is the father who sent him away to begin with. Problematic as he was, Marlon Brando set the bar with his turn in Richard Donner's 1978 classic "Superman: The Movie" as the Kryptonian whistleblower Jor-El, who warned his home planet of its doom.

It would be 35 years before the character was brought to life on the big screen again, only this time with Russell Crowe playing the part in Zack Snyder's "Man of Steel," and he did an okay job of it, too. However, with writer and director James Gunn making it clear early on that his take on Metropolis' protector wouldn't waste time with an origin story, it seemed fair to assume Jor-El wouldn't be showing up in any form in 2025's "Superman.

Composer Alexandre Desplat on a Summer That Includes ‘Jurassic World,’ ‘Phoenician Scheme’ and His First Hollywood Bowl Show: ‘It’s a Dream I’ve Had Since I Was a Kid’
Image
On any list of the most admired composers working in film today, Alexandre Desplat would be either at the top or very close to it. That’s not just for the quality of the work — although, as his list of 11 Oscar nominations and two wins would indicate, there is that — but the expanse of styles and sheer breadth of his filmography, whether he’s doing ear-ticklingly eccentric scores for smaller-scale pictures or satisfyingly symphonic ones for the blockbusters.

The French scorer is about to undergo a Hollywood composer’s rite of passage, which some would say is overdue, conducting his first full night of music at the Hollywood Bowl this coming Tuesday night. It will finally answer the longstanding question: Who would win in a fight —”Godzilla” or “The Queen”? But seriously, having the music of monster movies and royal dramas on the same bill will make for a full-service...

Wisconsin Just Passed New Tax Credits for Film and TV with Bipartisan Support — Read That Again
Image
While Trump has flirted with imposing a 100 percent tariff on movies made outside the United States, Wisconsin is welcoming the industry with hope and energy. A new bipartisan budget from the Badger State — which tipped red in the last presidential race — will ramp up Wisconsin’s film and TV game.

Last week, local legislators made plans to re-establish the state’s film office, which went dark in 2005. They also approved $5 million in annual tax credits, with a $1 million cap per project, for productions made in Wisconsin. Democrats started winning again during state elections this spring, but securing new arts funding from the government in 2025 is a political miracle almost anywhere in the country.

“A lot of these states are getting these credit programs,” said Nathan Deming, a filmmaker and volunteer for the film coalition, Action! Wisconsin. He advocated in front of the state’s Ways and Means committee earlier this...

Who Is Ultraman In James Gunn's Superman? The Villain Twist, Explained
Image
This article contains spoilers for "Superman."

Superman's archenemy is, without a doubt, Lex Luthor. But the problem the movies have always run into is that Luthor is a normal guy; one punch from Superman and he's dust. So how do you make Lex stand toe-to-toe with the Man of Steel? Traditionally, there have been two options: Either put Lex in a suit of armor, or give him a superpowered enforcer.

Superman movies have always gone with the latter, and James Gunn's new "Superman" is no different. Lex's (Nicholas Hoult) muscle is Ultraman. Yes, the rumors were true, Ultraman does appear in "Superman" as a key villain. However, he's a bit different than the comic book version.

During "Superman," Ultraman stays silent and wears a full body black suit, with a goggled mask resembling Doomsday's.

But the hints to his true self aren't subtle. He has...

Peter Jackson Says ‘I’m Not Retired’ When Asked About Not Directing a Feature Film in 11 Years; He’s Focused Now on Bringing a Giant Bird Back From Extinction
Image
“Lords of the Rings” Oscar winner Peter Jackson has not directed a narrative feature film in more than a decade. His last feature, “The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies,” was released in 2014. Since then, Jackson has pivoted to documentaries with 2018’s “They Shall Not Grow Old” and 2021’s “The Beatles: Get Back.” Jackson recently spoke to ScreenRant and was asked about his decade-plus hiatus from feature filmmaking.

“No, no. I’m certainly not retired,” Jackson said. “We are currently working on three different screenplays. I’m at the moment writing three different scripts.”

“We are producing and have been writing ‘The Hunt for Gollum,’ which Andy Serkis is going to direct next year,” he added, referencing the next “Lord of the Rings” movie. “I’ve enjoyed working on documentaries, whether they show I’ve grown old or not, and obviously the ‘Get Back,’ The Beatles project.

‘Daniela Forever’ Review: A Lo-Fi Sci-Fi Take on Grief and Lucid Dreaming Much Too Conceptual for Its Own Good
Image
Grief and heartbreak easily lend themselves to stories rooted in the dreamy potential of the counterfactual. The loss of another demands you ask yourself a simple question with infinite answers: “What if?” What if I’d said this? What if I’d done that instead? Would they have stayed? Would they still be here? In Nacho Vigalondo’s ambitious if baggy and imperfect lo-fi sci-fi romance “Daniela Forever,” Henry Golding’s Nick isn’t just stuck asking himself those questions. He is actively rewriting his story with his titular girlfriend (Beatrice Grannò) in a dream world where he controls any and all possibilities.

That isn’t hyperbole. Nick, a British DJ living in Madrid who’s been mourning the loss of Daniela for weeks on end, learns of a new type of drug that may help his situation. With just one pill a night, he’s told, he’ll be...

James Gunn's Superman Post-Credits Scenes, Explained
Image
This article contains spoilers for "Superman."

Not to throw any shade at one particular comic book movie franchise, but if this were any other superhero film, that big character appearance at the end of "Superman" wouldn't have been before the credits, but long after half the theater had emptied after treading through left-behind bags of popcorn. Instead, director James Gunn debuts the wonderfully messed-up Supergirl (Milly Alcock), the next metahuman to get her own film in the DC Studios lineup, before the film's end, as she swings by the Fortress of Solitude to pick up her dog, Krypto. So where does that leave the film in regards to post-credit scenes?

Well, you'll be happy to know that Gunn has given viewers not only a mid-credits scene, but also a post-credits scene to cap his film off. Are they absolutely essential viewing to keep up to speed with where the Dcu is headed next?...

Ed Helms Says His ‘Socially Conservative’ Parents and ‘Repressed Southern Home’ Did Not Raise Him to Be in Movies Like ‘The Hangover’
Image
Ed Helms recently stopped by SiriusXM’s “Where Everybody Knows Your Name” podcast, hosted by Ted Danson, and remembered how nervous he was for his parents to see “The Hangover,” Todd Phillips’ 2009 R-rated comedy blockbuster, which paired Helms with Bradley Cooper and Zach Galifianakis. Helms said his upbringing made a movie like “The Hangover” an absolutely nuts choice for his family.

“I grew up in a kind of a repressed Southern home. Politically, very progressive, but still a very socially conservative kind of environment,” Helms said. “And so ‘The Hangover’ is nuts. That’s not what they raised me to do, to be in a movie like ‘The Hangover.’ So my parents — at that point they’d seen me do crazy stuff on ‘The Daily Show’ and ‘The Office’ — and so there was some sort of acceptance already, but, still, I was nervous for my parents to see ‘The Hangover....

Taylor Kitsch to Star in Survival Thriller ‘Eleven Days’
Image
Taylor Kitsch, the star of “Friday Night Lights” and “Lone Survivor,” is set to lead the independent survival thriller “Eleven Days.”

Set in Texas during the summer of 1974, “Eleven Days” follows the head of the Texas Department of Corrections Jim Estelle (Kitsch) who plays a deadly game against a convicted heroin dealer, who is holding dozens of people hostage at a local penitentiary after a pre-planned escape goes awry. According to the official logline, “lines between captor and captive, justice and survival, begin to blur as the siege spirals for 11 endless, terrifying days.”

Filming will take place in Texas this September. “Eleven Days” will be directed by Peter Landesman. Kevin Sheridan is writing the screenplay with revisions by Landesman, based on the book “Eleven Days In Hell: The 1974 Carrasco Prison Siege at Huntsville, Texas” by William T. Harper. Producers include Vincent Newman and Vance Howard.

Kitsch will appear next in...

‘We Are Guardians’ Review: Leonardo DiCaprio Executive Produced This Simple but Galvanizing Documentary About the Destruction of the Amazon
Image
Executive produced by Leonardo DiCaprio, and produced by Fisher Stevens, the scattered but stirring eco doc “We Are Guardians” assigns itself the unenviable challenge of providing a small — yet broadly comprehensive — window onto one of the greatest environmental crises in the history of our planet: The destruction of the Amazon rainforest. It’s a topic so vast that even a sprawling miniseries would struggle to contain it, and yet directors Edivan Guajajara, Chelsea Greene, and Rob Grobman manage to wrap their arms around the disaster in a little more than 80 minutes; not by simplifying the situation, but rather by contrasting the apocalyptic plainness of the problem with the infinite complexity of solving it.

The facts speak for themselves, tragic as it is that they don’t always listen to each other. One of several people in the film who help to anchor the project as more of a prompt to...

‘Sovereign’ Review: In the Rare Thriller That’s Truly Political, Nick Offerman Is Powerful as a Lost Soul of the New Right
Image
It’s the article we’ve all read 100 times. A liberal journalist from the mainstream media goes down to some diner in Ohio or Tennessee to talk to ordinary folks who are Trump supporters, trying to put together a sympathetic understanding of their point-of-view. The crusty true believers will inevitably say they think Trump is too this or too that (“The man is far from perfect”). But then they’ll explain why he speaks for them anyway. Your typical diner-in-Trump-land article will reference such topics as the collapse of American manufacturing, the opioids epidemic, and the stubborn resentment that festers around immigration. Yet the persistent folly of these articles is that they never really, truly explain the rise of the new right-wing politics. They don’t explain it the way a movie like “Sovereign” does.

Written and directed by Christian Swegal (it’s his feature filmmaking debut), “Sovereign” is a...

The Best New Blu-ray and 4K Releases in July 2025
Image
Physical media culture is alive and thriving thanks to the home video tastemakers hailing everywhere from The Criterion Collection to Kino Lorber and the Warner Archive Collection. Each month, IndieWire highlights the best recent and upcoming Blu-ray, DVD, and 4K releases for cinephiles to own now — and to bring ballast and permanence to your moviegoing at a time when streaming windows on classic movies close just as soon as they open.

If the CGI-laden, popcorn blockbusters flying into theaters this summer aren’t your fancy, IndieWire has you covered with a bevy of physical media releases to enjoy at home — and a few with some classic-film savoriness.

But in terms of more current releases that also were blockbusters, Ryan Coogler’s “Sinners” is now available to own at home as opposed to just streaming on HBO Max in less visually pristine terms. The vampire saga — starring Michael B. Jordan as...

‘When a River Becomes the Sea’ Review: A Sexual Assault Survivor Heals in Her Own Time in a Piercing Spanish Drama
Image
The crime is never shown, nor explicitly detailed, in “When a River Becomes the Sea,” Catalan director Pere Vilà Barceló’s quiet, contemplative but cumulatively hard-hitting portrait of a young woman reassembling herself after a sexual assault. It certainly doesn’t need to be. Taking their protagonist, archaeology student Gaia, at her word and inviting the viewer to do the same, Barceló and co-writer Laura Merino vividly and empathetically enter the mind of a victim struggling to be heard even when she is believed, in a culture where women in her position are still judged and dismissed across lines of gender and generational difference.

As a study of psychological collapse and rebuilding, the film is no easy sit, though it becomes, gradually, a rewarding one. Avoiding pat therapy-speak or a neatly cathartic narrative arc, it instead charts the jagged, irregular rhythms of trauma, closely following Gaia as she pivots between volatile anger,...

Larry David Teams with the Obamas for ‘Curb’-Like Take on U.S. History in New HBO Sketch Series
Image
Just in time for the United States’ Semiquincentennial — yes, that’s actually the official title for a 250th anniversary — Larry David is giving his own bent — curb, if you will — on the old U.S. of A. The comedy legend will produce for HBO a limited yet-untitled half-hour sketch comedy series alongside producer Jeff Schaffer — who will also direct — and one of the country’s former leaders, President Barack Obama, through his and Michelle Obama’s Higher Ground production company. Vinnie Malhotra and Ethan Lewis will also serve as executive producers.

According to the official logline, “President and Mrs. Obama wanted to honor America’s 250th anniversary and celebrate the unique history of our nation on this special occasion… but then Larry David called.”

“I’ve sat across the table from some of the world’s most difficult leaders and wrestled with some of our most intractable problems,” Obama said in a statement.

Lena Dunham Details Possible ‘Girls’ Revival Plot: ‘I Would Always’ Work with That Cast Again
Image
Could Lena Dunham bring “Girls” into the 2020s? The series creator and recent “Too Much” showrunner told Variety that she is still open to the possibility of revisiting the beloved HBO show. “Girls” concluded in 2017 after six seasons, and starred Dunham, Allison Williams, Jemima Kirke, and Zosia Mamet as a millennial friend group in Brooklyn.

While Dunham has teased a possible “Girls” reboot down the line for years and has been in talks with HBO about bringing the show back, she is now detailing what that revival would entail.

“If we had something to say that was really specific and it was a moment in their lives where we felt like revisiting it — like millennial women becoming mothers or stepping into menopause or going to live at old-age homes — I would always want to work with those people again,” Dunham said.

And Dunham has a few ideas about where the beloved characters would be specifically…...

Universal Studios Just Promised The Goriest Halloween Horror Nights Maze Of All Time
Image
"Terrifier" villain Art the Clown has come a long way since his humble origins in the indie horror anthology film "All Hallows' Eve." These days, he's a bona fide box office draw, as the "Terrifier" movie series can't stop passing box office milestones -- an impressive accomplishment when you consider that the films have a reputation for making audience members physically sick in theaters. That said, the evil clown's influence is growing, as "Terrifier" is the latest horror franchise to receive its own Halloween Horror Nights maze at Universal Studios. Suffice it to say, there will be blood.

The event, which opens at the Universal Orlando Resort and Universal Studios Hollywood on August 29, 2025, and September 4, respectively, promises to be one of Universal's goriest outings to date. Modeled after Art's Funhouse, participants will have to endure bloodbaths at the Clown Cafe, the horrors of revolting bathrooms, and other haunted hotspots...

Murderbot Season 2 Is Coming, But The Sci-Fi Series Faces One Major Challenge
Image
There's some great news for fans of the Apple TV+ sci-fi comedy series "Murderbot," though it's sadly not a spin-off that's entirely just full-length episodes of "Sanctuary Moon." We'll still probably get more chances to see our favorite fictional space soap opera, however, as Apple has announced that "Murderbot" has been greenlit for a second season. That's right folks, we're talking more murder, more bot, and more of star Alexander Skarsgård absolutely killing it as an awkward weirdo robot who just wants to watch his shows in peace instead of getting dragged into human nonsense.

The show, based on the first novella in Martha Wells' "The Murderbot Diaries" series, is a tremendous amount of fun with a terrific ensemble cast that helps make Skarsgård's dryness work and makes this unbelievable world feel more real. There's just one teensy problem for fans who have gotten attached to the scrappy hippies from...

Freestyle Digital Media Acquires ‘A Spartan Dream,’ Sets Limited Theatrical Release – Film News in Brief
Image
Freestyle Digital Media — the independent film arm of Byron Allen’s Entertainment Studios — has acquired the distribution rights to “A Spartan Dream” and will release it in select theaters for one week, starting Aug. 15.

“A Spartan Dream” is a romantic-comedy adventure film riddled with fantasy and myth.

However, plans go awry when he falls in love with a beautiful Greek woman; he changes course to salvage the village and change history.

The film stars Peter Bundic, Georgia Mesariti, Katerina Didaskalou, Renos Haralambidis and Nikos Tsergas, and is the feature directorial debut for M. Achilles. It gained attention after winning Best Feature Film at the 2025 Prague Actors and Filmmakers Film Festival.

Eight Must-See Movies at New York Asian Film Festival and Japan Cuts 2025

For the second consecutive year, the two best Asian film festivals in America are inexplicably happening in the same city at the same time.

Back in the day, and for more than a decade, the New York Asian Film Festival took place just before Japan Cuts, and the two festivals would occasionally join forces to throw their combined weight behind particularly special or challenging pieces of work. For reasons that remain unclear, the events now overlap. That might be great news for anyone who travels to Manhattan for the sole purpose of binging the best new movies from around the world (which isn’t an oxymoron so much a testament to the festivals’ growing interest in diasporic cinema). Still, it’s a massive headache for people who live here and appreciate how the programming at the New York Asian Film Festival and Japan Cuts has always offered different but complementary experiences,...
