Escape Artist: Ted Kotcheff, 1931–2025
Image
First Blood.In 1983, Ted Kotcheff attended the Brussels Film Festival as a guest of honor; he was also there to promote the first Rambo movie, First Blood (1982), which would be the biggest commercial success of his directorial career. First Blood had originally been set for production in the early 1970s but was put through the developmental wringer for the better part of a decade, with a revolving door of potential leading men, attached directors, and multiple revisions of its survival-thriller plotline. It was an odd project for Kotcheff, then best known for the barbed social satire of Fun with Dick and Jane (1977) and North Dallas Forty (1979), broad, vulgar comedies that dealt with class warfare by means other than armed combat. “Freud says that guns are an extension of your dick,” scoffs Nick Nolte’s battered wide receiver Phil Elliott in North Dallas Forty, mocking the hardened gridiron ideal he’s...

Amazon MGM Studios Sets International Distribution Deal With Sony Pictures
Image
Amazon MGM Studios has found its partner for its ambitious international theatrical exhibition plans in Sony Pictures. The two studios have struck a multiyear distribution deal that will see Sony release films “After the Hunt,” “Mercy,” “Crime 101” and “Project Hail Mary” overseas.

The deal comes as Amazon’s international distribution deal with Warner Bros. Pictures ends. After the aforementioned slate of films has been released, Amazon MGM will release its titles overseas directly, but the deal gives the studio time to set its international plans.

Indeed, Luca Guadagnino’s “After the Hunt” will start the partnership off with an Oct. 10 limited release before going wide on Oct. 17. The psychological drama was given a prime awards season date and stars Julia Roberts, Ayo Edebiri, Andrew Garfield, Michael Stuhlbarg and Chloë Sevigny. Longtime Guadagnino collaborators Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross are also returning as composers.

Then on Jan. 23, 2026, Timur Bekmambetov’s sci-fi thriller “Mercy” will release.

Why Christopher Reeve Was Cast As Superman, According To A DC Producer
Image
Although not the first actor to play Superman in a live-action film project, and certainly not the last, Christopher Reeve is still held up by many as the Platonic ideal of the character. Reeve first portrayed Superman in Richard Donner's 1978 feature film "Superman," and that film bothered to present the Man of Steel as an epic folk hero, worthy of a gigantic budget, a sacred tone, and the type of outsize storytelling Hollywood typically reserved for Biblical epics. At the heart of it all was Reeve, an actor who managed to communicate the humility and nobility of the character, even as he flew around the sly in Superman's cartoon-friendly blue costume.

Reeve played Superman in three additional sequels, although it was diminishing returns with each progressive outing, both dramatically and financially. By the time "Superman IV: The Quest for Peace" came out, audiences no longer cared. Despite this, though,...

Sam Rockwell's Biggest Career Regret Involves Not Working With Late Famous Friend

Die, My Love | New Lynne Ramsay film due November
Image
Lynne Ramsay’s highly-anticipated Die, My Love will be arriving slap bang in the middle of awards season 2025.

Lynne Ramsay may not be the most prolific of filmmakers but whenever she does put a movie out into the world, it never goes unnoticed. You Were Never Really Here, released in 2017, was a terribly effective blend of hitman thriller and character-focused drama fronted by Joaquin Phoenix. Since then, Ramsay has been working away on things, and it’s the upcoming Die, My Love that marks her next directorial release.

After causing quite the buzz at Cannes this year following its premiere, Mubi acquired the film for $24m, the biggest acquisition of the festival.

Die, My Love features a fascinating lead duo of Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson with the former as a mother battling post-partum depression. Pattinson plays the husband, while Sissy Spacek, Nick Nolte and Lakeith Stansfield all co-star.

Reviews have been positive so far,...

“Ronth: Two Deeply Disturbed Cops & One Helluva Film” – A Subhash K Jha Review
Image
Writer-Director Shahi Kabir’s one-night-in-the-life-of… narrative in the Malayalam, Ronth, initially seems like a routine cop-on-duty plot, with crackling police communication radios and assorted small-time criminals sauntering in and out of view, drunk or sober, preferably latter.

Then the film begins to assume another shape, a much darker and terrifying hue. By the time we reach the closure, it is hard to recognize Ronth as the laidback, slightly disturbing experience that we started with.

The jaded Yohannan (Dileesh Pothan) and his rookie partner Dinanath (Roshan Mathew) are no Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy from 48 Hrs. Both Yohannan and Dinanath have dark unresolved past encounters with suicides close to their family. They both fear themselves more than anything else.

As a writer, Shahi Kabir scores high in allowing the salient characters to grow in their mutual kinship, not so much through any external impetus but by an organic sense of unspoken hand-holding.

Cape Fear Set Photos Reveal First Look At Javier Bardem As Max Cady And Amy Adams As Amanda Bowden

"Granddaddy used to handle snakes in church. Granny drank strychnine. I guess you could say I had a leg up, genetically speaking."

Filming is now underway on the Apple TV+ Cape Fear series at Chevron Station in Atlanta, Georgia, and some set photos (via Just Jared) reveal our first look at Javier Bardem as Max Cady and Amy Adams as Amanda Bowden.

At first glance, this new take on the psychotic murderer/rapist looks quite a bit different to the clean-shaven, heavily tattooed version of the despicable character Robert De Niro played in Martin Scorsese's '90s adaptation, but closer shot reveals that the Dune: Part Two star is sporting a few tats and possibly some piercings.

The 10-episode series has Nick Antosca on board as writer, executive producer, and showrunner. The project also has two filmmaking legends involved, with Steven Spielberg and Martin Scorsese set to executive produce.

Why Did Eddie Murphy Stop Making Buddy Action Comedies?
Image
The Pickup stars Eddie Murphy and another former Saturday Night Live cast member as wisecracking “mismatched armored truck drivers” who are attacked by a gang of “ruthless criminals” and forced to rob a casino. And apparently, it’s coming out this year, and not in, like, 1997.

Co-starring Pete Davidson and Keke Palmer, The Pickup looks like the kind of buddy action comedy that Hollywood used to churn out with some regularity. Promisingly, it was directed by Tim Story, who also made Barbershop, Ride Along and the underrated meta-horror comedy The Blackening. But it’s also a return of sorts for Murphy.

Murphy, of course, launched his movie career by starring in one of the most famous buddy action flicks of all-time: Walter Hill’s 48 Hours. The 1982 blockbuster starred Murphy as a slick criminal forced to partner with a surly, drunken cop played by Nick Nolte, who has seemingly stayed...

Al Pacino Rejected Han Solo Role in 'Star Wars' Because He Didn't Understand It

Al Pacino may have become a Hollywood icon for roles in The Godfather, Scarface and many other films, but he could also have been a certain Han Solo in George Lucas’ Star Warsfranchise. While the Oscar-winner doesn’t have many regrets about not taking on the role made famous by Harrison Ford, he recently addressed why he turned the role down while promoting his current movie, The Ritual.

While Pacino was already well-known by the time he was offered the script for Star Wars, when he read the role, he simply did not know what any of it was actually about. He told EW:

“I said, ‘I think I’m in the mood to make Harrison Ford a career.’ [Spielberg, Lucas, and others] were in the late-’60s making this. They were real idealists coming into the ’70s with great films all over the globe. So, it was a wonderful place that I actually saw,...

Podtalk: Filmmaker Alan Rudolph Feasts on ‘Breakfast of Champions’

Chicago – “Breakfast of Champions” was a film that was critically reviled when it was released, and became one of those box office “mega bombs.” But the adapter/director of the film, Alan Rudolph, is getting the last laugh. “Breakfast of Champions” is being re-examined in a new 4K Uhd restoration through Shout!

A Forgotten John Candy Flop Is Making Waves On Tubi
Image
43 years ago, the runaway box office success of "48 Hrs.," in which Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy bickered and brawled as they attempted to track down a couple of vicious escaped convicts, turned the buddy-cop subgenre into a formula goldmine. Before the 1980s drew to a close, films like "Running Scared," "Beverly Hills Cop," "Lethal Weapon," and "Red Heat" were able to work profitable variations on this very simple dynamic. Even though cops have never been more difficult to root for, the subgenre, as evidenced by the 2024 success of "Beverly Hills Cop: Axel Foley," is still commercially appealing today.

While movies like "48 Hrs." and "Lethal Weapon" were powered by tightly constructed screenplays, the vast majority of buddy cop films got by on comedic anarchy. They actually had more in common with Richard Rush's gloriously shaggy "Freebie and the Bean" from 1974; two partners exchange profane repartee for a couple...

Gerard Butler’s 93%-Rated Film Is Now On Streaming But It’s Not Netflix

Gerard Butler has been a part of tons of projects over the years, both good and bad, critically and generally acclaimed and panned. Of course, some pieces have been more than just approved by audiences worldwide despite being brutally disapproved by critics. Like his 93%-rated fan-favorite flick from 2019, Angel Has Fallen.

A political action thriller, the movie was deemed rotten by the critics, but the general audience ratings said otherwise, as it seems to have truly captivated them with its action-thriller elements. And now, years after its release more than half a decade ago, the movie is finally out for streaming, but not on the streaming giant Netflix, as one might expect.

Tom Cruise Is “Very Serious” About His Tropic Thunder Character Getting His Own Spinoff Movie

Tom Cruise wants his Tropic Thundercharacter to get a spinoff movie. The original satirical comedy movie came out in 2008 and focused on a group of actors filming a high-budget movie who are forced to become the soldiers they are portraying in the war film. Tropic Thunder's star-studded cast includes Ben Stiller, Robert Downey Jr., Jack Black, Jay Baruchel, Steve Coogan, Danny McBride, Bill Hader, Nick Nolte, and Cruise. The film was directed by Stiller and was based on a script by Stiller, Justin Theroux, and Etan Cohen.

"I Feel Like It Would Be Really Hard" To Do A Tropic Thunder Sequel, Says Composer

It would be “really hard to do” a Tropic Thundersequel, says the original film’s composer Theodore Shapiro. The world was not ready for Ben Stiller’s insane war movie spoof when it came out back in 2008, but soon embraced the film’s over-the-top comedy, thanks in large part to a stacked cast including Robert Downey Jr., Jack Black, Nick Nolte and, in a truly bizarre turn, Tom Cruise. The idea of doing Tropic Thunder 2 has been floated from time-to-time over the years, but nothing has materialized, and the likelihood of a sequel seems more-and-more remote.

Count Tropic Thunder composer Shapiro among those who see slim chance of a sequel coming together. Speaking recently to ScreenRant, Shapiro admitted that he’s out of the Tropic Thunder loop these days, but says he’s game to compose the score if somehow it can be made:

I have no idea what is likely.

'Die, My Love' Director Says Critics Have Gotten the Robert Pattinson & Jennifer Lawrence Movie All Wrong

Lynne Ramsay, the director of films like We Need to Talk About Kevin and You Were Never Really Here, knows that her films tend to be deeper than the conventional Hollywood movie. She also isn't afraid to call out those who misunderstand her work. Her latest film, the psychological thriller Die, My Love, is dividing audiences at the Cannes Film Festival, and early reviews have convinced Ramsay to speak her mind. She says that the film starring Robert Pattinson and Jennifer Lawrence is being greatly misinterpreted by critics.

Mubi has acquiredDie, My Love for $24 million at Cannes in one of the festival's most interesting deals so far. Their listing of the film already includes the following plot synopsis: "Grace, a writer and young mother, is slowly slipping into madness.

Die My Love, the latest feature from Scottish filmmaker Lynne Ramsay, was one of the hottest titles heading into this year’s Cannes Film Festival, and the film’s stock has only grown following a headline-grabbing $24 million acquisition by Mubi.

The film has been divisive on the ground in Cannes and is still a hot talking point up and down the Croisette. But did anyone who watched the film in the Lumiere on Friday actually understand it? Ramsay, a Cannes Film Festival vet, is skeptical.

“This whole postpartum thing is just bullshit,” Ramsay said Monday afternoon of the discourse surrounding her movie during a fireside chat with veteran film journalist and critic Elvis Mitchell here in Cannes. “It’s not about that. It’s about a relationship breaking down,...

Netflix finds the way to Sesame Street

Netflix has acquired global streaming rights to Sesame Street, the genre-defining children's television series that's been entertaining and educating young viewers for over 50 years. The pickup comes six months after Warner Bros. Discovery opted to not renew its streaming deal for Sesame Street, leaving the show's future in jeopardy. But the crisis is averted, and Sesame Street Season 56 will premiere later this year on Netflix. According to Netflix, the new season will feature format changes and the return of popular segments like "Elmo’s World" and "Cookie Monster’s Foodie Truck." Additionally, episodes will be built around one longer, 11-minute story. Netflix has exclusive worldwide premiere rights, but episodes will continue to be available day-and-date on PBS stations in the U.S. and across PBS Kids digital platforms. Netflix will also be able to develop video games...

Jennifer Lawrence & Robert Pattinson's New Psychological Movie Debuts With Strong Rotten Tomatoes Following Cannes Premiere
Image
The new psychological drama starring Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson has been well-received by critics. While Pattinson is perhaps best known for his franchise roles including Edward Cullen in the Twilight movies, Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, and Bruce Wayne in The Batman, he has also starred in a variety of titles from auteur directors. This includes Robert Eggers' The Lighthouse, Christopher Nolan's Tenet, Bong Joon Ho's Mickey 17, David Cronenberg's Maps to the Stars, and Claire Denis' High Life.

Jennifer Lawrence movies have taken Pattinson's co-star on a similar career trajectory. She has held two major long-running franchise roles, playing Katniss Everdeen in the Hunger Games movies and Mystique in the most recent branch of the X-Men franchise, prior to the characters joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe. However, she first rose to prominence off the back of her Oscar-nominated performance in 2010's Winter's Bone,...

Lynne Ramsay Wanted Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson to Attack ‘Each Other Like Tigers’ on First Day of ‘Die My Love’: ‘Can You Do It Naked?’
Image
Jennifer Lawrence gives one of her most all-consuming and risky performances as a writer crashing down badly from postpartum in the countryside in Lynne Ramsay’s “Die My Love.” The Cannes Competition premiere is an adaptation of Ariana Harwicz’s 2017 novel, which Lawrence and her Excellent Cadaver production team sent to Ramsay a couple of years ago, hoping the “We Need to Talk About Kevin” filmmaker would want to direct it. The dark, intensely subjective drama is Ramsay’s first film since 2017 Cannes screenplay winner “You Were Never Really Here,” and it’s looking for a distributor.

“There’s not really anything like postpartum. It’s extremely isolating,” Lawrence said at Sunday’s Cannes press conference when asked about her character, Grace. “Lynne moves this couple into Montana. She doesn’t have a community. She doesn’t have her people, but the truth is, extreme anxiety and extreme depression [are] isolating no matter where you are.

“I think I have an easy answer to this one,” said Lawrence at the film’s press conference, in response to a journalist asking which was the hardest day on set. “The day before our first day, Lynne showed Rob [Pattinson, co-star] and I a scene from If…. It was these actors, and they’re attacking each other like tigers.”

“We were like ‘Ok’,” said Lawrence. “And [Ramsay] said, ‘And you’ll do it naked, yeah?”

Jennifer Lawrence, Robert Pattinson and ‘Die, My Love’ Cast Get Vulnerable About Parenthood: “I Didn’t Know I Could Feel So Much”

The cast of Lynne Ramsay’s Die, My Love got vulnerable about how parenthood has changed their lives while speaking at the movie’s Sunday press conference.

The talent came straight from the Palais premiere Saturday night — where they were recipients of a warm six-minute standing ovation — to The Hollywood Reporter-hosted afterparty at Cannes hotspot Salama.

The film, an adaptation of Ariana Harwicz’s 2017 novel of the same name — with the action relocated from France to Montana — was co-written and directed by Scotswoman Ramsay and was co-produced by Lawrence in her most ambitious performance in years. Through the two-hour film, Lawrence plays a new mother (Grace) who develops postpartum depression and begins going in and out of psychosis.

Robert Pattinson plays her husband, Jackson, Sissy Spacek and Nick Nolte play his parents, and Oscar nominee Lakeith Stanfield also stars.

Cannes: ‘Die, My Love’ reviews kickstart early Oscar buzz for ‘astonishing’ Jennifer Lawrence

Based on the reaction to Lynne Ramsay’s Die, My Love at the Cannes Film Festival on Saturday, the first significant Oscar-caliber performance of the year has arrived thanks to Jennifer Lawrence.

“Cannes is a festival where Oscar narratives typically start to take shape, and while it’s far too early to make predictions, Lawrence has announced herself as an early frontrunner,” wrote The Daily Beast in an unbylined review (although critic Esther Zuckerman has filed several reviews for the outlet this week from France). “Die, My Love still has yet to find distribution, but it inevitably will get picked up with a big campaign in place. The second coming of Jennifer Lawrence is here and it’s astounding.”

In the headline for his review, Vanity Fair critic Richard Lawson called Lawrence “astonishing.”

“What keeps our attention during the film’s slightly sagging middle, and makes it such bracing viewing,...

‘Die My Love’ Review: Jennifer Lawrence Spirals Into Psychosis While Robert Pattinson Plunges Into Despair in Lynne Ramsay’s Jarring Character Study
Image
Lynne Ramsay has never shown much interest in making films that are easy to digest, her hard-edged psychological dramas refusing to offer comfort or provide tidy answers for the messy questions arising out of her characters’ upended lives. The uncompromising Scottish director has not gone soft in her jagged fifth feature, Die My Love. Giving a no-holds-barred performance that careens between disturbed reality and disturbing fantasy, blurring any dividing lines that separate them, Jennifer Lawrence plays a woman transplanted to the wide-open spaces of rural America, where marriage, motherhood and domesticity close in on her, chipping away at her sanity.

While screenwriters Enda Walsh, Ramsay and Alice Burch relocate Argentine writer Ariana Harwicz’s Lynchian 2012 debut novel from the French countryside, they stay true to its piercing focus on a woman battling her demons in a state of increasingly feverish isolation — whether she’s alone or in a room full of people.

Critics Herald Jennifer Lawrence’s “Mesmerizing” Performance In Cannes Drama ‘Die My Love’: “Expect Her To Show Up On That Oscar Stage Again”

Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson took to the Cannes red carpet this evening for the world premiere of new film Die My Love, directed by Lynne Ramsay (You Were Never Really Here).

The Competition movie is based on the 2017 novel by Ariana Harwicz and also stars Lakeith Stanfield, Sissy Spacek and Nick Nolte.

Set in rural America, the film is a portrait of a married woman’s mental disintegration as post-natal depression consumes and obliterates her. Pattinson plays her husband, and Stanfield her lover.

In Deadline’s review, Damon Wise was impressed by Ramsay’s “mesmerizing film,” describing it as a “brutal but beautiful story.” As for many critics, Lawrence proved the star of the show. “America knows very well how good Jennifer Lawrence can be,” Wise wrote, “and this could well mean a fifth Oscar nomination if it lands in savvy hands.” But Ramsay also comes in for particular...

Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson’s Animalistic Descent Into Madness in ‘Die My Love’ Gets 6-Minute Cannes Standing Ovation
Image
Jennifer Lawrence has electrified the Cannes Film Festival with the world premiere of “Die, My Love,” the latest directorial effort from the acclaimed Scottish filmmaker Lynne Ramsay. The movie earned a six-minute ovation following its world premiere. “Die, My Love” is in competition at Cannes and competing for the Palme d’Or.

As the audience applauded, Ramsay cut her own ovation short, struck with emotion.

“Wow. I’m so overwhelmed. Thanks to these amazing actors. I’ve got to get it together, I’ll see you in a minute,” she said, breaking into a run up the aisle and out of the Palais.

In the film, Lawrence and her co-star Robert Pattinson proved worthy adversaries, who bicker and screw their way into emotional oblivion in Ramsay’s tense portrait of a woman undone. The crowd at Cannes viscerally reacted to Lawrence’s self-inflicted violence — smashing her head into mirrors, jumping...

‘Die My Love’ Review: Jennifer Lawrence Shines In Lynne Ramsay’s Brutal But Beautiful Portrait Of A Woman On The Edge – Cannes Film Festival
Image
Die My Love, Lynne Ramsay’s fifth film, ends with a familiar song sung by an unfamiliar voice: The director herself delivers a stripped-down version of Joy Division’s 1980 hit “Love Will Tear Us Apart.” Marital-breakdown songs are usually the stuff of country and western, but this stark post-punk anthem was written by Manchester’s Ian Curtis, who married at 19 in 1975 and was dead, by suicide, a month before his most famous song was released, 45 years ago, almost to the day (if you’re reading this during Cannes 2025). Ramsay’s mesmerizing film is as close as you might get to seeing Curtis’ song come to life, the brutal but beautiful story of a married woman’s mental disintegration as post-natal depression consumes and obliterates her.

The famous saying has it that hell is other people, but here, hell for other people is Grace (Jennifer Lawrence), a big-city author who has...

Die, My Love review – Jennifer Lawrence excels in intensely sensual study of a woman in meltdown
Robert Pattinson at an event for Twilight: Chapitre 2 - Tentation (2009)
Lawrence excels as a woman whose bipolar disorder is exacerbated by husband Robert Pattinson’s infidelity, with super-strength direction from Lynne Ramsay

Lynne Ramsay brings the Gothic-realist steam heat, some violent shocks and deafening music slams to this movie, adapted by her with co-writers Alice Birch and Enda Walsh from the 2012 novel by Ariana Harwicz. It’s a ferociously intense study of a lonely, passionate woman and her descent into bipolar disorder as she is left alone all day with a new baby in a rambling Montana house originally belonging to her husband’s uncle, who took his own life in a gruesome way that we are not permitted to discover until some way into the movie.

Die, My Love is another film to remind you that Ramsay believes you should make movies the way Vs Naipaul believed you should write books: from a position of strength. There is, simply,...
