Andrew Garfield and Florence Pugh find everlasting love after she accidentally runs him over in her car in the trailer for director John Crowley’s We Live in Time, which dropped on Wednesday.
That chance encounter changes their lives over decades as they find romance, build a home and family together and face a host of challenges on their way. With their relationship still apparently fresh, Tobias (Garfield) at one point in the trailer, having shed his neck brace after his car accident injuries, tells Almut (Pugh) that he must leave, only to be asked why he’s in a rush.
“Because I’m worried there’s a very distinct and real possibility that I’m about to fall in love with you,” he answers, before they embrace passionately. Along with the birth of a child, Almut faces her own health crisis at another point in the trailer, which has...

One of the worst kept secrets in Ireland’s film and TV sector has been official confirmed by the local industry body — that the second season of “Wednesday” is now shooting in the country.
The hit Netflix show — produced by MGM Television — became a smash hit in 2023, with season one (which shot in Romania) amassing more than 250 million views and winning four Emmys. It was revealed late last year that the second outing would be shifting production to County Wicklow in Ireland.
But for Screen Ireland, which has helped welcome countless major films and TV shows — including the likes of “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” — to its shores since it was re-launched in 1993 (as the Irish Film Board), “Wednesday” marks the “largest production to ever film in Ireland” in terms of production spend.

Lee Daniels’ The Deliverance just got even more haunting with new cast additions. Omar Epps, Demi Singleton, Miss Lawrence and Anthony B. Jenkins will be joining Andra Day, Glenn Close, Mo’Nique, Aunjanue Ellis, Caleb McLaughlin and Tasha Smith in the upcoming horror film.

When the family begins to experience demonic occurrences, Ebony finds herself in a spiritual battle between her faith, her life and the souls of her children — a battle that could have deadly consequences for all of them.

With past lists from the likes of James Gray, Ed Lachman, Mike Mills, Karyn Kusama, Ethan Hawke, and more, today we’re pleased to exclusively share a sneak peek from the lists of two celebrated Chilean filmmakers, Pablo Larraín and Sebastián Lelio, which have recently landed on the site.
Both filmmakers are currently working on their latest projects: Larraín is helming the Angelina Jolie-led Maria Callas drama, while Lelio is handling the musical The Wave, inspired by Chile’s “feminist May” movement in 2018. While in post-production on the projects, they’ve shared their curated collections.

Some cool international film news dropping before Cannes unveils their line-up, Variety gets the exclusive scoop on a new Sebastián Lelio project flying off our radar. Production is now complete on The Wave — a musical inspired by the mass protests and university rallies that took place during Chile’s so-called “feminist May” movement in 2018. Production took place over the past two months back in Chile. After 2022’s The Wonder, we were thinking that he’d move towards previous studio type projects in sci-fi pitched Apple/A24 Bride (last mentioned in 2020) or Voyagers but Lelio focused on a local uprising with the curious choice of utilizing the musical genre for a hard-hitting moment in Chile’s recent history.…...

The film — starring newcomers Daniela López, Avril Aurora, Lola Bravo and Paulina Cortés — centers on Julia, a dedicated music student who gets involved in the growing feminist movement on her university campus — a group effort where women step up to bring attention to the widespread harassment and abuse suffered by many of their peers. Amid the excitement of protest marches, she joins her friends in dancing and singing, revisiting her own experiences of mistreatment.

Sebastián Lelio is setting the soundtrack of a feminist revolution with musical film “The Wave (La Ola)” — it just wrapped production.
The Academy Award-winning director helms the film that follows music student Julia (Daniela López) who gets involved in the growing feminist #MeToo movement on her university campus. Amid the excitement of protest marches, per the official synopsis, Julia joins her friends in dancing and singing, revisiting her own experiences of mistreatment. As she gathers the courage to share her own abuse story, she unexpectedly becomes a central figure in the movement — a role she didn’t foresee, which forces her to address her identity as a survivor in a society that promises change but remains resistant to it.

Amazon MGM Studios executives have been screening privately a 10-minute sizzle reel of the upcoming Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans action adventure Red One and discussing the upcoming theatrical slate with exhibitors.
Red One was originally planned to launch on Prime Video and will now open theatrically on November 15. The move offers an indication of what the studio, led by head of film Courtenay Valenti and head of theatrical distribution Kevin Wilson, plans to assemble.
Executives did not host a CinemaCon presentation this year but are bullish on theatrical and say they want to offer broad tentpoles and awards-focused films.

Dune: Part Two hit theaters on March 1 and is making waves with audiences. It’s earning high praise from both critics and fans, holding strong with an impressive 94% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.
Social media is buzzing about the actors’ performances in the movie, too. Moviegoers loved seeing Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya back on screen as Paul Atreides and Chani, and Austin Butler as Feyd-Rautha.

Florence Pugh’s portrayal of Princess Irulan (an important character from the book) is also receiving praise. Pugh joining Dune: Part Two was a thrilling addition, bringing another talented rising star to the film.

Exclusive: Tessa Ross and Juliette Howell do not court publicity and when the duo welcome Deadline to their London office in early February, it is the first interview they have given about House Productions since they set up the film and TV outfit nearly seven years ago.
The Zone of Interest and The Iron Claw are in UK movie theaters when we speak, serving as a timely reminder of the company’s film credits, which have been built brick by brick. A second season of James Graham’s drama series Sherwood will drop in coming months on the BBC and the House principals are fresh back from L.A. as they line up U.S. partners for new projects.
Drama in the works include a series about the Costa Concordia cruise ship disaster, a TV adaptation of the musical Kathy and Stella Solve a Murder, and an early-stage project with Ncuti Gatwa.

Amazon MGM Studios is partnering with The Wonder Project to launch House of David, a straight to order series that will stream exclusively on Prime Video.
House of David follows the once-mighty King Saul as he falls victim to his own pride. A prophet prepares to overthrow him — anointing the outcast shepherd boy David as a second king. As Saul’s fury grows, David navigates love, violence and politics in the court of the very man he’s destined to replace. Two kings. One Kingdom. The outcome is war.
The Wonder Project, led by veteran producer Jon Erwin and entertainment executive Kelly Merryman Hoogstraten, will also develop series and films rooted in spirituality for Prime Video under this new deal. Dallas Jenkins, the creator and producer-director of The Chosen, is a large shareholder and special advisor to The Wonder Project.

This post contains spoilers for "Eileen." Seriously. If you haven't seen the movie yet, please check it out and then return to this article.
I fell hard for "Eileen" when I saw it at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year, so I was thrilled to have the opportunity to speak with director William Oldroyd to mark the film's wide release. This is his second feature film, and he's now made two movies about young women who feel restricted by the worlds they live in and dramatically lash out as a result. That's certainly true of his first film, 2016's "Lady Macbeth," which helped catapult a young Florence Pugh to stardom, and for a significant portion of its runtime, it seems as if "Eileen" is going to be a much different kind of story -- a lush but low-key period romance between a mousy young prison employee played by Thomasin McKenzie...

Shortly after shooting his 2015 film “The Lobster,” director Yorgos Lanthimos approached his producing partners Ed Guiney and Andrew Lowe about another project he was interested in — “Poor Things,” based on the novel of the same name by Alasdair Gray. “Having made a film with him and having seen all of his previous work, we were very committed to him as a filmmaker,” Guiney tells Gold Derby. “The book ‘Poor Things’ sounded extraordinary. Without really knowing how we would pull it off, we signed up to think about getting it made.” Watch our exclusive video interview with Guiney and Lowe above.
Oscar winner Emma Stone stars as Bella Baxter in the film, a young woman brought back to life by the brilliant and unorthodox scientist Dr. Godwin Baxter (Willem Dafoe). The actress also signed up as a producer early on, after discussing the project with Lanthimos on the set of “The Favourite.

The BAFTAs have a soft spot for home-grown talent. Earlier this year, “Good Luck to You, Leo Grande” scored four bids at the British Academy Film Awards, including Best Actor (Daryl McCormack) and Best Actress (Emma Thompson). Before that, in 2022, Adeel Akhtar snuck into the Best Actor lineup for “Ali & Ava” and Joanna Scanlan won Best Actress for “After Love.”
This pattern of Brits recognizing Brits could bode well for Daniel Kaluuya this year, who makes his directorial debut with the new Netflix drama “The Kitchen.” The film depicts a dystopian London in which all social housing has been eliminated. The focus in the story are the residents of The Kitchen, a community that refuses to leave their homes despite their struggles.

You can smell what’s happening in “Starve Acre” before you puzzle the rest of it out. The grassy, peaty dampness of its rural Yorkshire setting seems to hit the olfactory glands without any scratch-and-sniff assistance, only intensifying as the film unearths its literally deep-buried secrets. Daniel Kokotajlo’s impressive second feature unfolds in a vein of British folk horror that has been popular of late — with films from Ben Wheatley’s “A Field in England” to Mark Jenkins’s “Enys Men” all tapping into that retro “Wicker Man” eeriness — but rarely with such rattling sensory specificity or formal refinement. Starring Morfydd Clark and Matt Smith as former townies unprepared for the full burden of lore they inherit with their desolate farmhouse, it’s a tale of quite outlandish fantastical leaps, grounded by the chills it also finds in common weather and wildlife.

It begins as a spatter of heavy rainfall — nothing out of the ordinary for acclimatized Brits, for whom an actual storm can even be cozily welcome after days of noncommittal drear and drizzle. But then it doesn’t stop, deep-set wet turns to invasive flooding, and what seemed a mere bout of inclement weather has swept you — and countless others like you — out of house and home. Megan Hunter’s speculative novel “The End We Start From” was a neat metaphor for the larger threat in seemingly minor signifiers of climate crisis; briskly adapted by screenwriter Alice Birch, Mahalia Belo’s fine film version matches its pragmatic, coolly urgent vision of a world coming apart slowly, gradually, and then all at once.
Tight in budget and focus, this isn’t disaster cinema of the lurid Hollywood school, revelling in the grand spectacle of destruction. For much of the film’s running time,...

An orphaned Irish teenager spars with her scheming uncle in this insightful reworking of Sheridan Le Fanu’s novel
Here is a tightly laced, elegantly cut gothic period drama that easily slips through the cracks as the barrage of upmarket cinema vying for awards begins. The 19th-century source material, Sheridan Le Fanu’s novel Uncle Silas, isn’t super well-known outside university literature departments, and the lead actors aren’t especially famous names either – although gravelly-voiced David Wilmot, here playing the heavy, has built a career making indelible impressions with supporting roles on film and TV (Station Eleven). Likewise, if you caught limited TV series Ridley Road then the talents of Agnes O’Casey will already be a known quantity. But in a way, the freshness of face and/or versatility of both O’Casey and Wilmot, along with the rest of the cast, are what makes this feel like a discovery.

As we begin to see, it feels almost weekly, 'natural' (i.e. created by human activity) disasters happening around the world - floods, fires, you name it - you would be hard-pressed not think about what you would do with you were caught in such a disaster. What would you pack? Where would you go? To whom could you turn for help? At what point could you leave a loved on behind? In her feature debut, director Mahalia Belo, with a script by playwright and screenwriter Alice Birch based on the novel by Megan Hunter, follows this woman's story as she must constantly be aware of the physical, while the space and seemingly endless time around her also force to contemplate the...

Although many would look at joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) as a huge career achievement, Florence Pugh said that not everyone thought the same when she landed her role.
During an interview with Time magazine, published online Tuesday, the actress, who joined the MCU as Yelena Belova with 2021’s ‘Black Widow’, said that some people in the independent film community were “really pissed off,” reports hollywoodreporter.com.
“They were like, ‘Great, now she’s gone forever,'” she said.
“And I’m like, ‘No, I’m working as hard as I used to work. I’ve always done back-to-back movies. It’s just that people are watching them now. You just have to be a bit more organised with your schedule.'”

Loyalty is essential to a person’s character, and breaking away from the norm to explore other avenues often comes at a price. For Florence Pugh, her signing to play Yelena Belova in the Marvel Cinematic Universe rubbed people in the indie film community the wrong way. Some actors see the Marvel community as a blight against their craft. In contrast, others embrace the opportunity to star in a money-printing blockbuster alongside some of the biggest names in Hollywood. In a Time Next Generation Leaders profile, Pugh admits she’s experienced backlash for starring in Marvel properties like Black Widow and the Disney+ series Hawkeye.
“So many people in the indie film world were really pissed off at me. They were like, ‘Great, now she’s gone forever,'” Pugh told Time. “And I’m like, no, I’m working as hard as I used to work. I’ve always done back-to-back movies.

Florence Pugh says that not everyone was too pleased with her when she joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
“So many people in the indie film world were really pissed off at me,” Pugh, who plays Yelena Belova in the MCU, said in a new profile with Time Magazine. “They were like, ‘Great, now she’s gone forever.’”
Pugh became a cult favorite thanks in part to her roles in indie flicks like Lady Macbeth in 2016, Midsommar and Little Women from 2019, and Olivia Wilde’s infamous Don’t Worry Darling in 2022.

Florence Pugh revealed to Time magazine that a lot of people in the independent film community were “pissed off” at her when she decided to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Pugh made a name for herself with acclaimed roles in indies such as “Lady Macbeth” and “Midsommar” before earning an Oscar nomination for Greta Gerwig’s “Little Women.” She joined the MCU as Yelena Belova in “Black Widow” and reprised the role in the Disney+ series “Hawkeye.” Yelena will be back in Marvel’s upcoming tentpole film “Thunderbolts.”
“So many people in the indie film world were really pissed off at me,” Pugh said. “They were like, ‘Great, now she’s gone forever.’ And I’m like, no, I’m working as hard as I used to work.

Sky and AMC have released a series of first-look images for the upcoming limited event series, ‘Mary & George’, starring Academy Award and BAFTA-winning actor Julianne Moore, alongside Nicholas Galitzine and Tony Curran.
The series is inspired by the unbelievable true story of Mary Villiers, who moulded her beautiful and charismatic son, George, to seduce King James VI of Scotland and I of England and become his all-powerful lover. Through outrageous scheming, the pair rose from humble beginnings to become the richest, most titled and influential players the English court had ever seen, and the King’s most trusted advisors.
