Movie theaters have changed a lot since the pandemic. There’s always been a difference between big-budget action movies and smaller, character-focused films, but now even the films expected to be huge hits are having trouble attracting audiences. This makes it seem like there’s no room for smaller films in theaters, but director Steven Spielberg disagrees.
While Steven Spielberg isn’t directing a film slated for release in 2025, he’s a producer on Chloe Zhao’s new movie, Hamnet, which is predicted to be a strong awards season contender. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, he stated he’s committed to ensuring films like Hamnet continue to be shown in cinemas, emphasizing the importance of theaters…
We’re working hard to ensure theaters show more than just big-budget action movies. We want to see films that explore real life – stories about love, family, and the powerful moments of realization that come from both joy and pain, much like the one you’re about to experience.
Hamnet is a movie based on the novel of the same name, telling a fictional story about the death of William Shakespeare’s son. The film centers on Shakespeare (played by Paul Mescal) and his wife, Agnes (Jessie Buckley), and explores how their son’s death might have affected their marriage and inspired Shakespeare’s play, Hamlet.
Steven Spielberg is a remarkably versatile director. He’s known for creating both hugely popular, crowd-pleasing films like the original Jaws, E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial, and Jurassic Park, as well as critically acclaimed and award-winning movies such as Schindler’s List and Saving Private Ryan.
Directors like Martin Scorsese and Francis Ford Coppola have expressed concern about the dominance of big-budget blockbusters in theaters, specifically criticizing movies from Marvel and similar franchises. However, Steven Spielberg, who recently applauded Top Gun: Maverick for boosting cinema attendance, isn’t offering criticism here. He’s not saying these films are bad, just that theaters need to offer more than just spectacle. He went on to explain…
Films like Chloé’s deserve to be seen, and I’m thrilled I had the chance to help bring this wonderful movie to life. It’s a true gem!
The film Hamnet has premiered at several film festivals and critics are raving about it. It’s still uncertain if positive buzz will translate into big ticket sales over Thanksgiving, but audiences who see it are expected to thoroughly enjoy the theatrical experience.
