Will that concert featureOlds breakout character Mid-Size Sedan!?!
One can only hope.
Borderlands
August 9
Eli Roth making a video game movie?
Hey, after producing arguably the best film of his career inThanksgiving, its worth having an open mind.
It cant be any worse thanFNaF, right?
Given that Ripley spent that time snoozing/missing out on her daughters life, she wont appear in the film.
InsteadAlien: Romuluswill starPriscillabreakout Cailee Spaeny, David Jonsson, and Isabela Merced.
The film also sees the return of Catherine OHara and introduces Monica Bellucci as… Beetlejuices wife?!
But give credit where credits due: writer and director Todd Phillips is not playing it safe.
You know ifTerrifier 3is for you.
Still, seeing the master of historical epics get to play in the Roman sandbox again is appealing.
In this one, we follow Lucius all grown up and played byAftersunbreakout Paul Mescal.
Including Denzel Washington in your cast always helps.
Cynthia Erivo plays Elphaba in this adaptation while Ariana Grande is bringing her talents to the role of Galinda.
Other notable cast members include Jonathan Bailey, Jeff Goldlblum, Bowen Yang, and Michelle Yeoh.
Based on appended details from J.R.R.

Megalopolis
TBA
About 30 years ago, Francis Ford Coppola largely retired from cinema for make wine.
About a little over a year ago, Francis Ford Coppola sold his winery so you can makeMegalopolis.
That piques curiosity, no?
As does the fact that this is his first intended mainstream cinematic effort since 1997sThe Rainmaker.
Julias father is a classicalist who prefers the art of antiquity.
No doubt things get weird, and hopefully as surrealistically grand as CoppolasDracula, from there.
So its a family affair.
The two weddings end up booked at the same destination venue for the same weekend.
They decide to share.
His bosses are not upset though… in fact they seek to harvest all unicorns for their medicinal properties.
So yeah, that old chestnut.
And, hopefully, theyll do it without abusing their animators, as reportedly happened withAcross the Spider-Verse.
All of that means it will take a lot of time to makeBeyond the Spider-Verse.
And to be honest, were willing to wait.
Well wait impatiently, but well wait nonetheless.
