Reed Morano & Charlie Kaufman Tapped to Adapt The Memory Police

Reed Morano & Charlie Kaufman tapped to adapt The Memory Police

Coming off of his rave success with the Netflix distributed psychological drama I’m Thinking of Ending Things, Charlie Kaufman has found his next project in Amazon’s adaptation of The Memory Police which has also found its director in The Handmaid’s Tale‘s Reed Morano, according to Deadline.

Based on Yoko Ogawa’s 1994 novel of the same name, the story takes place on an unnamed island off an unnamed coast where things have begun to disappear, beginning small with ribbons and roses and progressively grows into photographs. However, a few rare people are able to remember the things that no longer exist but the Memory Police are determined to make sure that what has been erased must remain forgotten forever. When a young novelist realizes her book editor is one of the few people still able to remember things, she shelters him in a room under her floorboards and the two struggle to hold onto the truth as the world closes in around them.

The script for the adaptation of the National Book Award-nominated tale will be penned by four-time Oscar nominee and one statue winner Kaufman while Morano, the first woman to win the Best Director Emmy for the pilot of Hulu’s Emmy-winning drama The Handmaid’s Tale, will direct and produce the project.

Despite receiving rave reviews from critics in its original release, The Memory Police only recently made its way to English-language countries with an English translation from Pantheon Books last August, just over 25 years after its original publishing by Kodansha in Japan.

After making her feature debut with the acclaimed 2015 drama Meadowland and following it with the 2018 well-received post-apocalyptic drama I Think We’re Alone Now, Morano returned to the filmmaking world with the Blake Lively-led action thriller The Rhythm Section, which received generally negative reviews from critics and set the record for the worst opening weekend of a film playing in over 3,000 theaters and bombed at the box office.

The film is expected to have its theatrical release this fall and will be available for streaming on December 11. Check out the video in the player below!

In a time of superstition and magic, a young apprentice hunter, Robyn Goodfellowe, journeys to Ireland with her father to wipe out the last wolf pack.

Benedict Cumberbatch’s Doctor Strange Joins Spider-Man 3!

Benedict Cumberbatch’s Doctor Strange joins Spider-Man 3!

As if the return of Jamie Foxx’s Electro for Tom Holland’s third webslinger adventure wasn’t already exciting, Benedict Cumberbatch has joined the upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe Spider-Man threequel as Doctor Strange, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

With Robert Downey Jr.’s Tony Stark resting in peace and Samuel L. Jackson’s Nick Fury off on a vacation in space with the Skrulls, Cumberbatch’s Doctor Strange will be filling in as the adult mentor for Holland’s Peter Parker in the film, while also possibly establishing the connection between Foxx’s Electro and Holland’s Spider-Man, should it be the same iteration of the villain from the Andrew Garfield-led Amazing Spider-Man film.

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 webslinging 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.

Foxx previously portrayed the role in 2014’s The Amazing Spider-Man 2 helmed by Marc Webb and starring Andrew Garfield in the titular role, but after it underperformed at the box office with $708.9 million worldwide on its estimated $200 million budget and received mixed reviews from critics and fans, Sony cancelled future plans including a third Garfield-led film and Sinister Six and Venom spin-offs.

Originally scheduled for a July 16, 2021 release, the film was first pushed back to November 5 and will now bow on December 17. The untitled third installment’s previous release date was recently given to Uncharted, with Holland revealing in an Instagram video that production on the webslinging title should begin around February 2021 after the conclusion of the filming for Nathan Drake’s long-awaited big-screen debut.

Tom Holland will return for the film as the titular wall-crawler, and it remains to be seen what villains he’ll go up against in the trilogy caper. Given the ending of Far From Home however, any number of his rogues gallery are 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. Holland’s Spider-Man is also set to appear in another Marvel Studios film per the new agreement.

Sony’s upcoming Spidey slate includes the Venom sequel, starring Tom Hardy and directed by Andy Serkis, as well as Jared Leto’s in-the-can Morbius, a Kraven the Hunter film, and a spinoff featuring Silver Sable and Black Cat. Should these films interact with the MCU and Tom Holland, it remains to be seen, but the door seems open.

Minamata Trailer: Johnny Depp leads Eugene Smith biopic

After making its world premiere at the Berlin International Film Festival earlier this year, Vertigo Releasing has acquired the Johnny Depp-starring biopic Minamata and has unveiled the first trailer for the drama as well as a UK release date. The trailer can be viewed in the player below!

During his lifetime, Smith was a photographer for Life magazine, with one of his most infamous works being his coverage of the poisoning of the people of Minamata, Japan through mercury poisoning, which the film will cover. The story will begin with Smith, a former World War II photographer, coming out of a life of reclusiveness when an old friend asks him to travel to Japan to expose this big story.

Based on the book by Smith and his wife Aileen Mioko Smith, the film is written by David K. Kessler and is being directed by Andrew Levitas, writer and director of the 2014 family drama Lullaby and star of past sitcoms including Party of Five and Nick Freno: Licensed Teacher.

Alongside Depp, the cast for the film includes Hiroyuki Sanada (The Wolverine, Mortal Kombat), Minami Hinase (Battle Royale, Her Granddaughter), Bill Nighy (Detective Pikachu, Emma.), Jun Kunimura (The Wailing, Midway) and Tadanobu Asano (Thor: The Dark World, Mortal Kombat).

“Working with Johnny to give voice to those who have been silently suffering is a responsibility we do not take lightly,” Levitas previously said in a statement. “Much like Eugene Smith in 1971, we could not feel more privileged or humbled to be tasked with the mission of bringing this incredible story to the world.”

Minamata is set to hit theaters in the United Kingdom on February 12, 2021 with no release date currently set for the US.

Check out the video in the player below along with the film’s Reddit teaser which features more new footage!

Mank will be led by Oscar-winner Gary Oldman as Herman Mankiewicz. 1930s Hollywood re-evaluated through the eyes of scathing social critic and alcoholic screenwriter Herman J. Mankiewicz as he races to finish the screenplay of Citizen Kane for Orson Welles.

Oldman will be joined by Amanda Seyfried as Marion Davies, Lily Collins as Rita Alexander, Charles Dance as William Randolph Hearst, Tuppence Middleton as Sara Mankiewicz, Arliss Howard as Louis B. Meyer, Ferdinand Kingsley as Irving Thalberg, Jamie McShane as Shelly Metcalf, Joseph Cross as Charles Lederer, Sam Troughton as John Houseman, Toby Leonard Moore as David O.

Mankiewicz is most famous for co-writing Citizen Kane alongside director Orson Welles. Widely considered to be one of the greatest films of all time, it gave Mankiewicz quite the influence in the golden age of Hollywood. In keeping with the vibe, Mank is filmed entirely in black and white.

Having written or co-written nearly 100 other films, including classics like The Pride of the Yankees, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, and The Wizard of Oz, he remains best-known for Citizen Kane. Although the film caused a rift between him and Welles, as Mankiewicz accused the director of pushing him out of the limelight, even offering to pay him off so Welles could get the sole writing credit on the film.
