Abrams’ “comeback” vehicle has officially started production in London. It’s actually happening. I suspect we’ll be looking at a 2026 release on this one. The film stars Glen Powell, Jenna Ortega, Emma Mackey, and Samuel L. Jackson.

Pascal has called for a boycott of all Harry Potter-related content, including the upcoming Warner/Max series, in response to J.K. Rowling's support of a recent UK Supreme Court decision that legally defined "woman" and "sex" as referring exclusively to individuals born biologically female.

Looks like Tom Hanks isn’t done battling Nazis just yet. The follow-up to Apple’s WWII action flick “Greyhound” is happening, with production to set sail in January 2026.

Scorsese’s 21st-century work is, for the most part, well respected, but I still occasionally meet people (and they definitely exist) who believe he lost his touch after the ’90s. They don’t believe he’s ever come close to making another “Goodfellas,” “Taxi Driver,” or even “Casino.”

A week later, and pre-sales have been through the roof. On Thursday, ‘Revenge of the Sith’ earned $3.5M in previews, and that’s more than new releases “The Accountant” ($3M) and “Until Dawn” ($1M). The film is showing in 2750+ theaters.

That solid Wednesday haul points to real momentum, with audiences clearly showing up and spreading the word. With legs like these, it’s looking like “Sinners” is in for a strong run.

It's worth noting that Stewart's fellow actor, Scarlett Johansson, had already secured a spot in this year's Un Certain Regard competition with her buzzy directorial debut, "Eleanor the Great." Harris Dickinson, another actor, is also part of the UCR competition with his own debut, "Urchin."

When asked at the TIME100 Summit whether Netflix has contributed to Hollywood’s struggles — such as shrinking theatrical windows, declining box office revenue, and productions leaving Los Angeles — Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos pushed back: “No, we’re actually saving Hollywood.”

Last month, Deadline reported that singer-turned-actress Charli XCX was in talks to play the White Witch in Greta Gerwig’s ‘Narnia’ for Netflix. However, TheInSneider is pouring some cold water on that rumor, and claiming that Charli XCX is no longer in the running.

The film, whose plot remains under wraps, has an incredible cast of French talent, including Isabelle Huppert (“Elle”), Virginie Efira (“Benedetta”), Vincent Cassel (“Black Swan”), and Catherine Deneuve (“Belle de Jour”).
