Pedro Pascal Officially Saves Todd Haynes’s Explicit Queer Noir

by

Pascal has been incredibly busy lately, appearing in three films – Materialists, The Fantastic Four: First Steps, and Eddington (with his former co-star, Phoenix) – as well as the hit series The Last of Us. He has even more projects coming out later this year, including The Mandalorian and Grogu and Avengers: Doomsday. Some might worry he’s appearing in too many things, but starring in large, successful films often gives actors the financial freedom to pursue smaller, passion projects without damaging their careers. So, we can thank the Marvel and Star Wars universes for helping make this new film by Haynes possible – who knew Grogu would play such a key role?

Netflix CEO Suggests ‘Superman’ Underperformed at the Box Office

I was listening in on the Senate hearing, and Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos addressed their deal with Warner Bros. to show their movies in theaters for 45 days before they hit Netflix. He admitted that timeframe isn’t set in stone – a film’s success (or lack thereof) in cinemas could speed things up. He pointed to Superman as a movie that ended up streaming faster than expected. Now, James Gunn had said Superman‘s early digital release was planned to coincide with the Peacemaker show, but Netflix is claiming it was actually how the movie did in theaters that made the call.
