Project Power trailer: Jamie Foxx & Joseph Gordon-Levitt star in new Netflix film

Netflix has released the official trailer for Nerve filmmaking duo Ariel Schulman and Henry Joost’s newest sci-fi action crime film titled Project Power. The video features Oscar winner Jamie Foxx and Golden Globe nominee Joseph Gordon-Levitt as their characters try to take down a drug operation that produces pills that allow people to gain superhuman abilities. The film will be available for streaming on Friday, August 14. Check out the video in the player below (via SuperHeroHype)!

On the streets of New Orleans, word begins to spread about a mysterious new pill that unlocks superpowers unique to each user. The catch: You don’t know what will happen until you take it. While some develop bulletproof skin, invisibility, and super strength, others exhibit a deadlier reaction. But when the pill escalates crime within the city to dangerous levels, a local cop (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) teams with a teenage dealer (Dominique Fishback) and a former soldier fueled by a secret vendetta (Jamie Foxx) to fight power with power and risk-taking the pill in order to track down and stop the group responsible for creating it.

Project Power stars Jamie Foxx (Ray, The Amazing Spider-Man 2), Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Inception), and Dominique Fishback (The Deuce). It will also feature Rodrigo Santoro (Westworld), Amy Landecker (Transparent), rapper Colson Baker aka Machine Gun Kelly (Nerve) along with Allen Maldonado, Andrene Ward-Hammond and Kyanna Simpson

Project Power is directed by Ariel Schulman and Henry Joost from a script written by Mattson Tomlin (The Batman). It is being produced by Eric Newman (Narcos, Bright) and Bryan Unkeless (I, Tonya). This project will be Foxx and Gordon-Levitt’s first ever venture with Netflix.

Foxx will next be seen in Disney-Pixar’s newest animated film Soul and a Mike Tyson biographic film titled Finding Mike. Meanwhile, Gordon-Levitt’s crime drama film The Trial of the Chicago 7 has been recently acquired by Netflix and is planning to release it later this year.

Alden Ehrenreich Teases Possible Solo Return

Alden Ehrenreich teases possible Solo return

Solo: A Star Wars Story flopped at the box office, which meant a sequel that would explore some of the films’ cliffhangers — particularly that Darth Maul cameo — was unlikely to happen. Yet, in a recent interview with Esquire, the film’s star Alden Ehrenreich teased a possible return for Han Solo in some capacity.

“I’ve heard sooooome stuff,” he said, “but nothing concrete.”

Ok. That’s not much to go on, but it is something. In the same interview, Ehrenreich discussed his three-year hiatus away from the public eye following Solo‘s release.

“[It] was basically a three-year experience from pre-production to the release of the movie,” he explains. “And I just wanted to be a person, connect with people in my life, spend time and develop as a person outside of those worlds. And then you never know.”

He also said he would be willing to come back if “it feels innate to the story,” but also revealed he has yet to see either The Rise of Skywalker or The Mandalorian.

“No, I don’t know anything about that. I mean, you know, I think our movie was kind of the last of the conventional-era Star Wars movie release time.”

Solo was a good Star Wars movie, but not a great one. Although, it planted some pretty cool seeds for future exploration. Hopefully we can see some of those seeds blossom into something unique in some way shape or form.

Directed by Ron Howard, the fun-filled galactic heist movie stars Alden Ehrenreich, Woody Harrelson, Emilia Clarke, Donald Glover, Thandie Newton, Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Paul Bettany. Joonas Suotamo returns to play Chewbacca.

Written by Jonathan Kasdan & Lawrence Kasdan, Solo: A Star Wars Story is produced by Kathleen Kennedy, Allison Shearmur and Simon Emanuel. Lawrence Kasdan, Jason McGatlin, Phil Lord and Christopher Miller are executive producers.

After going through a lot of major setbacks during its pre-production stage, production on Sony Pictures’ long-forthcoming film adaptation of Uncharted is finally taking off with MCU alum Tom Holland taking to Instagram to confirm that filming has begun on the long-in development project.

Originally scheduled to be released on October 8, 2021, the highly-anticipated film will now be hitting theaters on July 16, 2021, which was the previous release date of the third installment to Sony and Marvel Studios’ Tom Holland-led Spider-Man film. The July 16, 2021 release will see the film go up against Warner Bros.’ Space Jam 2.

Day one #uncharted

A post shared by Tom Holland (@tomholland2013) on Jul 15, 2020 at 12:59am PDT

Set to be directed by Zombieland and Venom director Ruben Fleischer, Uncharted will be a prequel to the game series, taking its basis from the sequence in Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception wherein the young thief Nathan Drake (Holland) first encounters his partner Victor Sullivan (Mark Wahlberg) and in essence, sets up the events of the entire game franchise.

Joining Tom Holland and Mark Wahlberg are Academy Award-nominated actor Antonio Banderas (The Mask of Zorro, Pain and Glory), Grey’s Anatomy actress Sophia Ali and Chilling Adventures of Sabrina star Tati Gabrielle.

Based on the action-adventure video game Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune from Naughty Dog and Sony Interactive, the story follows a descendant of explorer Sir Francis Drake, a treasure hunter named Nate Drake who believes he has learned the whereabouts of El Dorado, the fabled South American golden city, from a cursed golden statue. The search becomes competitive when a rival hunter joins the fray, then is escalated when creatures — actually mutated descendants of Spaniards and Nazis — begin attacking those hoping to learn the treasure’s true secrets.

Uncharted is an Arad/Atlas Entertainment Production, with Charles Roven, Avi Arad, Alex Gartner, and Ari Arad producing. The film will serve as the first feature produced by PlayStation Productions.

Despite previous drafts by the likes of Mark Boal (The Hurt Locker, Zero Dark Thirty), Oscar nominee David O. Russell, Doctor Strange‘s Thomas Dean Donnelly and Joshua Oppenheimer, Safe House‘s David Guggenheim, and Joe Carnahan, the new draft of the screenplay is written by Rafe Judkins, Art Marcum, and Matt Holloway.

Travis Knight became the sixth director to leave the project in its decade-long development cycle which began with Russell attached to direct followed by Neil Burger (Limitless), Seth Gordon (Baywatch), Shawn Levy (Free Guy) and Dan Trachtenberg (10 Cloverfield Lane)

Radar Pictures Signs The Soska Sisters for BlindSide Film Adaptation

Radar Pictures signs The Soska Sisters for BlindSide film adaptation

After nearly a decade of working in the indie horror world, Jen and Sylvia Soska, better known as The Soska Sisters, are partnering with Radar Pictures for a film adaptation based on the hit audio horror adventure game BlindSide, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The film, being written and directed by the Twisted Twins and entitled Unseen, will center on a Boston couple as they wake up blind and in a terrifying world they don’t recognize, struggling as they feel their sanity slipping and sensing the presence of a strange new species.

“Unseen is a horror film experience completely unlike any other before it,” the Soskas said in a statement. “This film will truly bring the fear of the unknown to life by putting the focus of storytelling on what you hear.”

The project is currently in development at Radar Picture after the Ted Field-ran production banner landed the film rights to the game, with Field (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Amityville Horror) attached to executive produce.

“I enjoyed what the Soskas did with their twist on Cronenberg’s Rabid,” Field said in a statement. “Their work as writers and directors embraces classic genre elements and adds a fresh, visceral quality. I look forward to seeing what we create with Unseen.”

Telluride Film Festival Cancelled Due to Pandemic

Telluride Film Festival cancelled due to pandemic

The Colorado-based Telluride Film Festival, which last year saw the debut of multiple acclaimed hits including Uncut Gems and Ford v. Ferrari, is the latest to bite the global pandemic dust as this year’s event has officially been cancelled, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

“After months of intense due diligence around physically holding an event, we’ve come to the heartbreaking but unanimous conclusion to cancel this year’s Labor Day celebration of film in Telluride,” the festival organizers wrote in a statement.

Telluride, which typically launches over Labor Day weekend, is well-known for going hand-in-hand with the start of the Academy Awards season, frequently premiering of screening films sure to catch the attention of Academy voters. Though with this year’s awards ceremony delayed and with a rise in cases across the country as people try and race back to normality with the reopening of some businesses, the festival organizers have come to the decision to cancel it outright rather than their original safety-conscious plan.

“Until the past week or so, we had a very good plan to put on the SHOW safely,” the statement read. “But with a seemingly unending number of new cases of Covid-19 and the national chaos around it, even the best strategy is threatened by this out of control environment. No matter how much many of us wear our masks and observe social distancing protocols, the pandemic has worsened rather than improved and the health and safety of you – our passholders, filmmakers, the people of Telluride and its surrounding areas – cannot be compromised. ”

Though this year’s event has been cancelled, the organizers confirmed that they will still be announcing the full list of titles they had planned for their program, many of which previously premiered at the New York, Toronto International and Venice film festivals, in hopes that “you will experience as we did, the best in film this year.”

“There are some incredible, powerful, and beautiful gems and we’re excited to extol their virtues when the time is right,” the organizers wrote. “Follow these titles, support them. We intend to champion them outside of the festival as best we can.“

The organizers also express their “enormous” gratitude for those who support the festival every year and assure that they will be announcing further details regarding the program and passes in an upcoming email.

ComingSoon.net recommends all readers comply with CDC guidelines and remain as isolated as possible during this urgent time.

CS Interview: Talia Shire Talks Cult Classic Rad

Rad remains one of the great guilty pleasures of the 1980s — a rockin’ youth versus the man story that features glorious stunts and one of the most insane dance sequences of all time. The cult classic finally landed on Blu-ray and 4K in May, and to commemorate the event, ComingSoon.net sat down and spoke with living legend and two-time Oscar nominee Talia Shire (Rocky, The Godfather, The Godfather: Part II), who starred in the film as Mrs. Jones. The new Rad Blu-ray from Vinegar Syndrome is currently sold out, but is available on Altavod now with exclusive Q&A and will be available On Demand on July 24!

Rad was written by Sam Bernard and Geoffrey Edwards and directed by Hal Needham. It also stars Bill Allen and Lori Loughlin. Parts of this movie were filmed in Cochrane in Cochrane, Alberta, Canada, Colonel Macleod Jr. High School, and at Bowness Park, both in Calgary, Alberta.

ComingSoon.net: So your husband Jack Schwartzman produced this movie. How did both of you get involved with the film?

Talia Shire: Jack and I were making this company and we had three movies we were involved in. Lion Heart, Hyper Sapien, and Rad. And Rad was, I think something Jack had found and was very excited about. And all of those three movies were really about young people and empowerment. So this was something Jack was very interested in. How do you inspire young people so that they have a feeling that they could do something in their world? Rad is pretty much about a kid who can do something, you know?

CS: Were you familiar with the BMX bike sensation of the time?

Shire: You’re talking to somebody who, believe me, I’m so embarrassed with my lack of athletic skills, but yes. But you know, BMX at that time, that was brand new. That was a brand new sport. And Jack was fascinated with it, as was I. And when we got to Canada, where we shot it in Calgary, I mean, you could see all our actors on the streets doing dance with their bikes. And you know, I love the ballet. So it was a brand new sport. And today, it’s an Olympic sport, not back then.

CS: So would you say you guys were the first to usher in that era of interest for BMX bicycling?

Shire: Jack did. And I did whatever Jack wanted to do, yes. And it was the very first, the very first BMX ever.

CS: So what was the production like, compared to say something like maybe The Godfather or Rocky IV, which you had just done?

Shire: Wowee. Well, we certainly, we had more money for Rad than we had in Rocky I. Godfather was, of course, very complex and had different conflicts. You know, every movie, whether it’s a big budget or a very low budget, it’s very hard to put movies together. They are complex, you know? But I have to say, I was enchanted when I got to Calgary. I adored Hal Needham. Hal Needham was our director, very well-known stunt — remember Hal Needham’s work before? He did a million Smokey and the Bandit, did I get that right? Did I say that right, Smokey and the Bandit?

CS: Yeah, yeah.

Shire: All right, so Hal was the perfect person to do this movie. So I mean, he was a marvel to work with, I have to tell you. But you know, every movie is difficult.

CS: Okay, so this is one of those movies that ultimately didn’t score well with critics, but it was a huge hit with audiences. What do you think is the ultimate appeal for fans of the movie?

Shire: Well, isn’t that an interesting thing? Why is it some movies have a heartbeat, some movies are big and terrific, but they seem to be embalmed? Rad was alive. It was this incredibly sweet and at its core, a very moral piece about young people. And it refused to die. It just stayed alive. And people are finding it at this moment.

CS: Are you surprised by its longevity?

Shire: Yes and no. But I think the gods have been kind because I have to tell you. When you put everything you have into a movie, right, and it opens and it closes, your heart is broken. Jack and I moped around this house. I have to tell you, we were heartbroken because we really thought maybe this could be just a terrific young people’s movie. And so, to have it discovered again is very satisfying, at least for me, and certainly for my children, who were tiny then, way back then. And now it’s exciting to see they’re discovering it.

CS: Speaking of your kids — you recorded the commentary for the 4K Blu-ray release with your son Robert. What was that experience like?

Shire: Well, let’s see. So Robert doesn’t remember, but he and Jason and Matthew were up in Calgary. Robert was like, three years old, but he was there. He was with the writers. And then, time goes by. And then losses happen. So for Robert to rediscover it and want to be involved in it, it was very important for me because we lost Jack some years ago. So for Robert to make this part of his, I guess part of his mission, you have to understand makes me feel that Jack is with us again. But Robert absolutely, you know, he’s given the most extraordinary restoration. He’s so proud of it. It sounds better. I thought recently sounds better than it ever did. It looks better than it ever did. It is a thrill to see Rad. It is alive. And I have to thank Robert. Robert, if you’re going to listen to this, thank you, Robert. Thank you.

CS: You’ve worked with a lot of family members on different movies. What is that like?

Shire: It’s a very important question. Some years ago, I saw a documentary on the Wallenda family. That is a famous circus family that has these great — it also had a great tragedy many years ago. But the Wallendas, you know, are back. They’re climbing on buildings and doing all these various things. And I called my sister-in-law, Ellie Coppola. And I said, “Gee, Ellie, I think the Coppolas are a great circus family.” And she totally understood, because we love craft, we love to dare the other person to do their best. And sometimes, you know, we have conflicts, but we’ll never drop the other family member. That means we are absolutely totally professional on the set.

CS: I think that’s great. I’ve noticed that you’re a very strong advocate of smaller films, like, say, Working Man. Do you gravitate towards the smaller films more?

Shire: You know, blockbusters, you need to know, blockbusters are very, very difficult as well. The reason I enjoyed what we’ll say the low budget, the lower budget movie is I obviously attract a lot of talent that comes to work on those movies, maybe for a little less money, right? And Rocky was a low budget movie, you need to know that. But I feel on a low budget movie, that I have the opportunity to teach, because making movies and acting, that is a doing thing. So I have a chance to say, and I did this on Working Man. I said to somebody, “So let me tell you about Barbara Stanwyck.” They didn’t know what I was talking about. So I needed to explain about Barbara Stanwyck. So I do enjoy the opportunity to maybe be that older professional person who can pass on some wisdom.

CS: Do you carry a sense of nostalgia for that old school style of filmmaking from the 70’s era?Movies like Rocky which required a bit more creativity and imagination, and aren’t so reliant upon computers and digital practices and such?

Shire: My God, you know, I’m on a cell phone talking to you. I don’t even know how I’m working this cell phone. I have to tell you, I’m not from this time. I mean, I’m strictly analog. But anyway, I have a great — first of all, you know who Roger Corman is, right?

CS: Oh yeah!

Shire: And if anybody doesn’t know who he is, he’s that guy that gave everybody their first job. And he would basically say, here’s not a lot of money and here are three things, three props, go make a story out of it. But he really did give people those opportunities. And so, I had those experiences way back then. In terms of this new world and this new technology, I look to my children to educate me. But you know what? You still have to hit your mark. You still have to hit your marks.

CS: It’s very true. And so, you’ve been in so many classic films over the years. So what would you say is the secret to sustained success in Hollywood?

Shire: Golly. Wow. That’s a tough question. I don’t know if you’ve ever seen The Hustler, that wonderful movie, Jackie Gleason, you know and Paul Newman? Did you ever see that?

CS: Oh yeah.

Shire: He’s like this great young — Paul Newman — great pool player, right, but at the end of that movie, I think what the lesson is is that to be a winner, you need style and endurance, right? Those two things, style and endurance. So I think part of, for me, it’s endurance, you know, God knows I’m enduring. And I’m keeping Rad alive with Robert. But it is style and endurance. And I think at the least, that what we do is meaningful.

CS: Do you think a movie like Rad could be made today?

Shire: Yes, and maybe, maybe a sequel will be made today. I mean, but it speaks of skill and talent. And it might have a new one or a sequel might actually be fascinating. But what’s interesting about this first Rad, and I’ve seen it now several times, I don’t know about you, but it’s very pure. It’s very wonderful and alive and incredibly sweet and important for today.

CS: So are you giving us an exclusive? Are you saying that there’s a Rad sequel secretly in the making and you’re going to be behind it all the way?

Shire: [Laughs] Golly, am I doing that? Can I do that? Oh boy oh boy. I don’t know. I’m feeling wild today. Do I have to check in with my children? I don’t know. But I know that’s what Josh wanted to do. I know my experience way back then with those very gifted writers, those talented writers, and the fact that it is an Olympic sport today. Who knows, you know? Who knows? I think this movie really belongs to the children now. I mean, it would be taken on by Jack’s family, by his children. And if you’re saying would I act in it? Sure, if they give me one song. If somebody will just let me sing in one movie? How about that?

Official Runtime for Christopher Nolan’s Tenet Revealed

BEGIN SLIDESHOW

Official runtime for Christopher Nolan’s Tenet revealed

The official runtime for Christopher Nolan’s latest sci-fi action feature Tenet has been released by the Korea Media Ratings Board. The long-awaited film reportedly holds a total running time of 149 minutes and 59 seconds, making it one of Nolan’s shortest films following 2008’s The Dark Knight which is 152 minutes long. Because of this, his Matthew McConaughey-led film Interstellar remains the filmmaker’s longest sci-fi feature to date.

The Warner Bros. Pictures film has suffered previous delays regarding its theatrical release and is currently slated for an August 12 release. However, this still might be changed due to a recent surge of new COVID-19 cases as many theaters including all the ones in California have been closed down again which clearly puts movie releases next month in danger of potential delays.

Tenet will be an international espionage thriller filmed across seven countries. John David Washington (BlacKkKlansman) stars, with a supporting cast that includes Robert Pattinson (Good Time), Elizabeth Debicki (Widows), Dimple Kapadia (Fugly), Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Avengers: Age of Ultron), Michael Caine (The Dark Knight Rises) and Kenneth Branagh (Dunkirk).

The director first made an impact in 2001 with his indie film Memento. His next film, Insomnia, was also a modest hit. but it wasn’t until Batman Begins hit theaters in 2005 that Nolan became a box office force in his own right. The Prestige was Nolan’s last movie to gross under $200 million worldwide. His other films include The Dark Knight, The Dark Knight Rises, Inception, Interstellar, and Dunkirk.

Tenet is written by Nolan and will utilize a mixture of IMAX and 70mm film, which is something he’s become famous for. Nolan is the film producing along with his partner Emma Thomas and is currently slated for an August 12 release.
