The series seemed to lose steam after the first three films, with a noticeable decline in both quality and audience interest, although they were still enjoyable. Ultimately, this led Greta Gerwig to explore the story again. It’s become apparent that focusing on the earlier stories hinted at in the films could have allowed the franchise to expand and thrive.
Okay, so season three of Euphoria jumps ahead five years, and creator Sam Levinson has framed it as the cast’s post-high school chapter – think St. Elmo’s Fire to the Breakfast Club vibe of the earlier seasons. He’s dropped some interesting hints about where everyone’s landed. Zendaya’s Rue is down in Mexico, tangled up in debt with Laurie and trying to find creative (and likely risky) ways to get out of it. Hunter Schafer’s Jules is pursuing painting at art school, while both Maude Apatow’s Lexi and Alexa Demie’s Maddy have ended up in Hollywood. Maddy’s working at a talent agency, naturally with some other things going on, and Lexi is an assistant to a showrunner – played by the amazing Sharon Stone, who Levinson raves about. It sounds like they’re really exploring what happens after the drama of high school, and how these characters are navigating their twenties.
It’s still unknown what role she’ll have in the new movie – whether she’ll play a hero or a villain – but The Hollywood Reporter says she’s in talks to join the project. If she signs on, she’ll be acting alongside a talented cast including Robert Pattinson, Jeffrey Wright, Colin Farrell, Zoë Kravitz, Paul Dano, Andy Serkis, and Barry Keoghan.
The music executive was found not guilty of sex trafficking and racketeering, but convicted on two charges related to prostitution and sentenced to over four years in prison. However, the documentary series The Reckoning raises the question of who else bears responsibility for his actions and whether the public played a role in enabling his behavior. While much of the series covers well-known details of the case, it ultimately portrays a man driven by insatiable desires. Here are five key points from the series.
Scarlett Johansson is in talks to star in the upcoming Batman 2, according to Deadline. Nexus Point News first reported the potential casting. DC Studios hasn’t officially confirmed the news yet.
Partridge said this back in 2002. Since then, the Bond film challenge has expanded to include five more movies. But the next Bond film, Bond 26, will be different – it’s the first one the Broccoli family and Eon Productions haven’t directly overseen. Because of this, No Time to Die might be seen as the end of an old chapter, and Bond 26 the beginning of a new one.
The Batman 2, the follow-up to the 2023 film, is currently planned for release in 2027. Matt Reeves is directing, and Robert Pattinson will return as Batman/Bruce Wayne.
Cameron is happy with how the Fire and Ash story concludes, even if no more films are made, though there’s been talk of potential sequels. He always intended the three films to be one complete story, carefully planned from beginning to end, rather than separate installments. As he explained to io9:
During an interview on the So True with Caleb Hearon podcast, Lana Wachowski, a transgender woman, criticized conservatives for manipulating political language to suit their agendas.
This year’s best movie for me is a strange but captivating story – it’s as draining as following current events, and features characters you won’t necessarily love. Despite all that, it’s hilariously unsettling, oddly both innocent and provocative, and will leave you feeling delightfully weird and sophisticated. Seriously, if you don’t enjoy it, we might have a problem.
