American Skin Trailer Released for Nate Parker’s Drama Feature

American Skin Trailer Released for Nate Parker's Drama Feature

American Skin Trailer Released for Nate Parker’s Drama Feature

The official trailer for actor/filmmaker Nate Parker’s (The Birth of a Nation) drama feature American Skin has been released by Vertical Entertainment, who acquired the North American rights to the film (via Deadline). You can check out the trailer now in the player below!

Written and directed by Parker, who also stars in the movie, American Skin follows Marine veteran Lincoln ‘Linc” Jefferson (Parker) who takes matters into his own hands in a series of events he hopes will finally lead to justice for his 14-year-old son after witnessing his son’s murder by a white police officer who goes uncharged.

The movie is executive produced by Oscar-winner Spike Lee (BlacKkKlansman) and also stars Omari Hardwick (Kick-Ass), Theo Rossi (Luke Cage), and Beau Knapp (Seven Seconds).

“In 2014, following the death of Michael Brown, I traveled to Ferguson, Missouri to stand against the overt domestic terrorism I saw spreading like a virus throughout our country,” Parker told Deadline. “My hope was both to amplify calls for justice, while seeking a better understanding of the tensions between law enforcement and men and women of color. The most tragic moment of this trip arrived when I stood downtown between two infuriated groups of citizens. From one side came yells of ‘Justice for Mike Brown’ and on the other ‘Support Our Police’. It became even more clear to me, the disconnect in our collective understanding of citizenship, law enforcement, and our responsibility to preserve American Black lives. This trip and subsequent killings developed in me a fire that manifested itself into the makings of this film American Skin.

“As an American citizen, father, brother, son and artist, I felt compelled to use my platform as a filmmaker to respond to this crisis in a way that could not only promote social equity, but initiate a global culture shift that can result in the preservation of lives. If saving one life is the only thing this film achieves, it will have served its core purpose.”

Lukas Behnken, Ben Ammar, and Mark Burg produce, with Zak Tanjefloff also executive producing and R.D. Delgado co-producing.

The movie debuted at the Venice Film Festival in 2019. It will be released next year in North America on Martin Luther King Day.

Alfred Molina Reprising Doctor Octopus for Tom Holland’s Spider-Man 3!

Alfred Molina Reprising Doctor Octopus for Tom Holland’s Spider-Man 3!

TheWrap brings word that Alfred Molina will be reprising his villainous role as Otto Octavius, aka Doctor Octopus, in the upcoming Spider-Man 3 movie led by Tom Holland. The character last appeared in Sam Raimi’s 2004 Oscar-winning movie Spider-Man 2 starring Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst.

According to the outlet, Molina’s involvement with the project was first reported by GWW after the actor was spotted on set.

Tom Holland will return for the untitled third Spider-Man film as the titular wall-crawler alongside Benedict Cumberbatch’s Doctor Strange, going up against Jamie Foxx’s Electro. Given the ending of Far From Home, however, any number of his rogues’ gallery are also likely eager for a fight. The third installment to the MCU’s Spider-Man films will also feature the return of Zendaya (Euphoria, Dune) as MJ and Jacob Batalon as Ned.

While most of the original series cast are set to return for the threequel, Foxx’s casting further blurs the lines across Sony’s three web-slinging franchises, with the previous installment bringing back J.K. Simmons as J. Jonah Jameson from Sam Raimi’s trilogy and the studio’s Sony Universe of Marvel Characters led by Venom expected to crossover into the Marvel Cinematic Universe series soon.

Originally scheduled for a July 16, 2021 release, the untitled Spider-Man 3 was first pushed back to November 5 and will now bow on December 17, 2021.

Paramount Pictures’ new edit and restoration of Francis Ford Coppola’s final film in his epic Godfather trilogy features a new version of The Godfather: Part III, achieving Coppola and screenwriter Puzo’s original vision for the finale.

Coppola’s masterful film adaptation of Puzo’s novel chronicles the rise and fall of the Corleone family and the saga is rightfully viewed as one of the greatest in cinematic history. Celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, The Godfather: Part III was nominated for seven Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director. The film follows Michael Corleone (Al Pacino), now in his 60s, as he seeks to free his family from crime and find a suitable successor to his empire.

Coppola and his production company American Zoetrope worked from a 4K scan of the original negative to undertake a painstaking, frame-by-frame restoration of both the new Mario Puzo’s THE GODFATHER, Coda: The Death of Michael Corleone and the original The Godfather: Part III.

In order to create the best presentation possible, Zoetrope and Paramount’s restoration team began by searching for over 50 original takes to replace lower resolution opticals in the original negative. This process took more than six months and involved sifting through 300 cartons of negative. American Zoetrope worked diligently to repair scratches, stains, and other anomalies that could not be addressed previously due to technology constraints, while enhancements were made to the original 5.1 audio mix. These thorough restoration efforts were not immune to the coronavirus pandemic: midway through the project, all work—even the search for the negative—shifted to the San Francisco Bay area and Los Angeles and was completed by Zoetrope and Paramount remotely.

Ridley Scott’s Gucci Biopic Adds Jeremy Irons to Cast

Ridley Scott’s Gucci biopic adds Jeremy Irons to cast

After lining up Al Pacino (The Irishman) and a number of other A-list performers to join Lady Gaga (A Star is Born) in Ridley Scott’s Gucci biopic, the cast is growing even further with the addition of Emmy-nominated Watchmen star Jeremy Irons, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Roberto Bentivegna’s script is based on Sara Gay Forden’s 2001 novel The House of Gucci: A Sensational Story of Murder, Madness, Glamour, and Greed that used the murder to delve into the complex yet dishy family history, filled with infighting, corporate intrigue and gobs of money. Gucci, the grandson of Guccio Gucci, ran the company in a declining period in the 1980s after wrestling it out of his uncle’s hands.

Sources reported in August that Pacino, Adam Driver (Marriage Story), Jack Huston (Antebellum), Jared Leto (Morbius) and Reeve Carney (Penny Dreadful) were all in talks to star in the film, with Driver being eyed for Maurizio Gucci, and that Robert De Niro (The Irishman) was in talks to portray Maurizio’s father, Rodolfo, though those proved to be misinformed as Irons has signed on for the role.

Pick up your copy of Forden’s novel here!

Coming off from the critical success of 2018’s A Star Is Born which earned her an Oscar for Best Original Song and an Oscar nomination for Best Actress, Lady Gaga is attached to portray the role of Maurizio Gucci’s ex-wife and mother of his two daughters, Patrizia Reggiani, who was tried and convicted for orchestrating her ex-husband’s murder on the steps of his office in 1995. Despite her children’s pleas to the court and public to reevaluate her mother’s case as the operation drastically changed her behavior, she was portrayed darkly in the media, being dubbed the Black Widow and was sentenced to 29 years before being let out early in 2016 after only 18 years.

The film will be produced by Ridley Scott and Giannina Scott through their Scott Free Productions banner. Kevin Walsh has also boarded the project to serve as a producer.

MGM has set Gucci’s release date for November 24, 2021.

Neill Blomkamp Has Written & Directed A New Supernatural Horror Film

According to Deadline, Oscar-nominated filmmaker Neill Blomkamp (District 9, Elysium) has written and directed his first feature film since 2015’s Chappie, a currently untitled supernatural horror movie that was made “under-the-radar” during the pandemic. The movie was filmed in British Columbia over the summer with on-set COVID-19 protocols in place.

Written and directed by Blomkamp, the plot details for the movie are being kept under wraps but the project is reportedly one Blomkamp had “always wanted to make.”

The cast for the film is mostly made up of Canadian actors and it is rumored there is a “strong sci-fi and VFX component in keeping with Blomkamp’s previous three movies,” which would be Chappie, starring Sharlto Copley, Dev Patel, Hugh Jackman, and Sigourney Weaver, Elysium, Blomkamp’s highest-grossing project so far, starring Matt Damon, Jodie Foster, and Copley, and District 9, nominated for four Oscars and starring Copley.

Editor Julian Clarke (Deadpool, District 9, Elysium) and Director of Photography Byron Kopman (Volition) are also attached to the project.

The untitled horror is produced by AGC Studios.

Rathalos Sends Fiery Attacks in New Monster Hunter Clip

Sony Pictures has released a brand new clip for Paul W.S.

Set to debut in theaters on December 25, 2020, you can check out the video now in the player below!

In addition, the film is currently wrapped-up in controversy after China has decided to remove Monster Hunter from its cinemas due to a scene involving a racist Asian joke. The film’s producer Constantin Film has quickly issued a statement addressing the controversy, apologizing to the Chinese audience for the thoughtless line.

“[Constantin Films] sincerely apologizes to Chinese audiences for a line of dialogue contained in an early scene of Monster Hunter,” the studio said in a statement (via Deadline). “There was absolutely no intent to discriminate, insult or otherwise offend anyone of Chinese heritage. Constantin Film has listened to the concerns expressed by Chinese audiences and removed the line that has led to this inadvertent misunderstanding.”

Monster Hunter centers on the leader of a UN military team named Artemis, played by Jovovich, who is transported to another realm populated by monsters. There she meets the Hunter (Jaa), with the two teaming up to close a portal to prevent monsters from attacking earth. The movie will be a highly stylish big-screen adaptation of the video game.

Monster Hunter is written and directed by Paul W.S. Anderson. The film is a production by Sony Pictures, Constantin Film, and Impact Pictures with Anderson, Jeremy Bolt, Robert Kulzer, Martin Moszkowicz, and Dennis Berardi serving as producers.

The Capcom video game series consists of action role-playing games where players and their friends work together to take down larger-than-life beasts in a living, breathing ecosystem. Since the first Monster Hunter title made its debut 14 years ago in 2004, the series has attracted a dedicated fan base, and grown into a global mega-hit with Monster Hunter: World, the latest title in the series, shipping 10 million units worldwide, with cumulative sales of the series exceeding 49 million units as of August 20, 2018.
