Hollywood stars Sydney Sweeney, Scarlett Johansson, Jacob Elordi, Matthew McConaughey and Kerry Washington are among top talent who will join TheWrap’s interview and portrait studio at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF).

TheWrap Studio returns to the heart of TIFF at the InterContinental Toronto Centre, Sept. 5–8. Guests will toast the moment with Moët & Chandon, the exclusive champagne sponsor.

Additional talent attending the studio includes Amanda Seyfried, Willem Dafoe, Glenn Close, Elle Fanning, Ethan Hawke, Daniel Craig, Jason Bateman,...

The full lineup for this year’s BFI London Film Festival has been unveiled with Noah Baumbach’s George Clooney-starring Jay Kelly and Chloé Zhao’s buzzy Shakespeare tale Hamnet among the additions.

On Wednesday, a total of 247 titles — comprised of features, shorts, series and immersive works — from 79 countries were confirmed to premiere at this year’s festival, running Oct. 8-19. Rian Johnson’s next Knives Out installment, Wake Up Dead Man, was previously announced as the opening gala and Julia Jackson’s 100 Nights of Hero is set to close the fest.

The headline galas are jam-packed with Hollywood’s top talent. Kicking off the American Express Gala is the U.K. premiere of the Brendan Fraser-led Japanese drama Rental Family from Hikari, while the Patron’s Gala at this year’s fest is H Is For Hawk from Philippa Lowthorpe with Claire Foy and Brendan Gleeson.

It’s good to be the king — make that the prince.

One of Shakespeare’s most-adapted plays, there have been over 50 film versions made of Hamlet — from classics like Laurence Olivier’s 1948 version, which won Best Picture and Best Actor, to Franco Zeffirelli’s 1990 film, starring Mel Gibson and Glenn Close, to family friendly interpretations like Disney’s The Lion King.

This year is no exception, with a trio of films inspired by the famous play making the rounds of the fall festivals, each with its own spin on the classic: Riz Ahmed's Hamlet, Oscar Isaac's King Hamlet documentary, and Chloé Zhao's Hamnet. There's even an animated Japanese version: Scarlet,...

Ethan Hawke is recalling the attention on his breakup from ex-wife Uma Thurman.

The 54-year-old actor and the 55-year-old actress were married in 1998 after meeting on the set of Gattaca two years prior, and split up in 2003, with their divorce finalizing in 2005. They have two children together – actress Maya Hawke, 27, and actor Levon Hawke, 23.

In a new interview, Ethan gave some rare comments on their split, recalling how “humiliating” the public attention was.

What is Knives Out 3 called?...

Following the announcement of legendary actor Graham Greene‘s death, The Lowdown star Ethan Hawke has revealed the performer’s posthumous role in the FX series in a touching tribute. Taking to Instagram, Hawke remembered Greene by posting a photo of himself alongside the actor as they seemingly filmed on the Oklahoma-based production earlier this year. “I had the pleasure of working with Graham Greene earlier this year. His career is legendary: Dances with Wolves, Thunder Heart, Reservation Dogs, to name a few,” Hawke wrote, captioning the image. “He has always possessed extraordinary grace, wisdom, wit, & depth. Working with him was shockingly fun. He improvised brilliantly and infused every moment with spontaneity & humor.

Exclusive: Emmy nominees Walton Goggins (The White Lotus) and Lewis Pullman (Lessons In Chemistry) are newly aboard climbing movie Batso, joining the previously announced Jessica Biel in the true story of a trio of trailblazing climbers who in the early 1970s took on the most difficult route up iconic peak El Capitan in Yosemite National Park.

The film is based on the true story of Warren ‘Batso’ Harding and Dean Caldwell’s attempt to conquer ‘The Wall of Early Morning Light’.

Goggins is portraying Harding and Pullman will be Caldwell with Biel portraying Beryl Knauth, Batso’s romantic partner and a key pillar in the Yosemite climbing community. 80 For Brady filmmaker and Splitsville star and co-writer Kyle Marvin is directing.

18 months ago Ethan Hawke and Daniel Radcliffe were attached in the lead roles but the project has undergone changes.

The synopsis reads: “In 1970, The Wall of Early Morning Light was an unthinkable climb.

The Lowdown is a “Tulsa noir” crime show, says creator Sterlin Harjo (Reservation Dogs), himself a proud Tulsan, about his new series. “A noir is at its best when there’s someone fighting for truth to uncover corruption that’s usually political and cultural and everything in between.” The perfect character to encapsulate Harjo’s vision is self-described Tulsa, Oklahoma “truthstorian” and citizen journalist Lee Raybon (played with wit and grit by Ethan Hawke), who’s like a dog with a bone once he sniffs out corruption and rot. “I read stuff, I research stuff, I drive around and find stuff and I write stuff,” says Raybon about his calling.

September has always been a month for TV, from fall premieres in the network era to Emmy Awards and more.

The 77th Annual Primetime Emmys will take place right in the middle of the month, with titles like “The White Lotus,” “Hacks,” “Severance,” and “The Studio” facing off for TV’s biggest awards. But there’s plenty to watch before and after that: starting with Amazon’s latest drama about youthful abandon and quickly followed by Peacock’s highly-anticipated “The Office” spinoff “The Paper”. HBO and Issa Rae produce a retrospective on the history of Black television (of particular note ahead of another year’s minimally diverse Emmy pool).

Big names take TV this month, including Jason Bateman, Jude Law, Mark Ruffalo, Jessica Chastain, and Glen Powell. “Rick and Morty” writer Matt roller will debut a new animated series on Netflix, while “Reservation Dogs” scribe Sterlin Harjo teams up with...

Focus Features killed it in Colorado with two “Jesses” and one Emma Stone.

On the ground, the story of what resonated — or flopped — at the Telluride Film Festival can look far different from the headlines. Still, one fact was hard to miss: Focus Features reigned over the mountains with Yorgos Lanthimos’ kaleidoscopic “Bugonia” and Chloé Zhao’s devastating “Hamnet,” both receiving near-universal acclaim from critics and festival-goers.

Telluride has long been a launchpad for eventual Oscar juggernauts. Recent alumni include Barry Jenkins’ “Moonlight,” Zhao’s “Nomadland” and Guillermo del Toro’s “The Shape of Water.” If this year’s best picture winner was present in the Rockies, Zhao’s adaptation of Maggie O’Farrell’s bestselling novel feels like the strongest candidate. A win would deliver Focus Features its first best picture statuette.

“‘Hamnet’ is a masterpiece,” one woman told Variety. “It could be one of the best movies I’ve ever seen.

Over the course of his career, Ethan Hawke has left no creative stone unturned. A versatile character actor on both screen and stage, he continues to expand his work as a director, producer, writer, and author. This year at the Telluride Film Festival, Hawke is featured in not one but two projects: Blue Moon, his latest collaboration with director Richard Linklater, and Highway 99: A Double Album, an epic documentary about country music icon Merle Haggard that Hawke helmed. In recognition of his remarkable body of work, Hawke is one of three artists receiving the festival’s prestigious Silver Medallion.

“The fact that I'm here with Richard Linklater makes it even more special,...

Among the many men and women of the hour during this weekend’s Telluride Film Festival in Colorado, Ethan Hawke was soaring arguably higher than even some the other featured guests, due to having two very different films in the program, one a directorial effort and the other an awards-attention-attracting starring role. He also received a Telluride medallion and tribute as part of the festivities — a moment of triumph that stands at odds with some of the tougher times experienced by the two musical figures who are the subjects of his respective films, “Highway 99: A Double Album,” his documentary about country great Merle Haggard, and “Blue Moon,” which has him starring as the great lyricist Lorenz Hart.

As proof of just how fearless he is, Hawke ventured into what some would consider the very hub of the festival, the Baked in Telluride walk-in eatery, to meet the press, as...

Technically, the 2024-25 TV season isn't really over until Emmy night on Sept. 14. But networks, streamers and viewers are already turning their calendars over as the 2025-26 season soft launches right after Labor Day. Gold Derby poured over the upcoming schedule and selected 20 new shows that we're most excited to see, a group that includes prestige awards plays, addictive dramas and broadly commercial comedies. Set your TV remotes — if you still have them — to stun and follow along.

Merle Haggard was an escape artist.

The future country music legend broke out of juvenile hall and prison 17 times by his own count as a teenager and young man. But his greatest escape was getting out of Oildale, the hardscrabble town in California where he grew up, the son of refugees from the Dust Bowl in Oklahoma.

“Oildale is and has been struggling with real poverty, abject poverty. I mean, a lot of the roads aren’t paved,” observes Ethan Hawke, director of the Merle Haggard documentary Highway 99: A Double Album, which just premiered at the Telluride Film Festival. “There’s a lot of homeless, a lot of addiction. And you start to see that this guy pulled himself out of there without any help. He’s incarcerated from 14 to 23, grew up with virtually no education. I’m not talking about a college education; I’m talking about no...

In entertainment, nothing sells quite like a good success story, and for some, the success story begins at birth. Hollywood has always been a city of legacy, where family names echo through studio lots and red carpets. From the Fondas to the Coppolas, dynasties have long shaped the industry’s power structures. However, in the era of social media, streaming, and a rising demand for authenticity, the children of the stars are facing a different kind of spotlight. Today, a new generation of celebrity offspring is taking the reins. Stars such as Maya Hawke, daughter of Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman; Jack Quaid, son of Dennis Quaid and Meg Ryan; and Zoë Kravitz,...

Ethan Hawke wears many hats. The multi-hyphenate writer/director/actor returns to the Telluride Film Festival for a Tribute with Berlin prize-winner “Blue Moon” (SPC), in which he plays Broadway lyricist Lorenz Hart. And Hawke is debuting his new documentary “Highway 99: A Double Album,” a two-parter devoted to the life and music of Merle Haggard, which will likely sell to a streamer as it hits the festival circuit. And showing at the Toronto International Film Festival is a new series debuting on FX this September, Sterlin Harjo’s “The Lowdown.”

After all his recent efforts, Hawke, who has four Oscar nominations (three for collaborating with Richard Linklater), is ready to just talk. “I’m exhausted,” he said over breakfast in Telluride.

Hawke has always loved music, and has learned a lot over the years from playing trumpeter Chet Baker (“Born to Be Blue”) and directing the music movies “Blaze” and “Seymour: An Introduction.

Widely regarded as one of the finest performances of the 21st century, Denzel Washington's turn as the mean-spirited Detective Alonzo Harris in Training Day is a masterclass in acting, one that many budding young performers simply must watch. Starring alongside Ethan Hawke in the 2001 crime thriller, Washington verbally berates and threatens his way to an Oscar for his trouble,cementing his performance as one of the greatest to be heralded by the Academy.

Now, 24 years later, you can catch this awe-inspiring performance on a brand-new streamer. As of September 1, 2025, Training Day will be available to stream on Starz in the U.S., joining a number of exciting new arrivals on the platform.

William Shakespeare left no instructions as to the right way future dramatists should tell “Hamlet.” We have only the text, which reveals fresh insights each time someone new recites it. With director Aneil Karia’s interpretation, we get the great Riz Ahmed in the role, which is reason enough for the film to exist — but it’s perhaps the only one in a remake that might better have chosen not to be.

Transposed to modern-day London, where Hamlet belongs to a wealthy family of South Asian heritage, Karia’s version preserves the original text, albeit abridged, reordered and occasionally spoken by different characters entirely. Screenwriter Michael Lesslie oversaw this adaptation, which carries with it unfortunate relics of an earlier time — not the iambic pentameter, which is sacred, but references to kings and lords and a royal society that doesn’t translate one bit to the modern corporate world.

Here, Elsinore...

Director Robert Eggers redeemed himself last year with his biggest hit ever, Nosferatu. Headlined by Lily-Rose Depp, the movie also featured Bill Skarsgård as the titular character, and made $180 million worldwide. Eggers was coming off of his biggest box office flop, the action epic The Northman, which was headlined by his Nosferatu star’s brother, Alexander Skarsgård. Even though the movie didn’t recover its budget during its theatrical run, it has established itself as a particularly successful title on home video. The Northmanrecently witnessed another spike in interest on Netflix, where it debuted recently.

According to FlixPatrol, The Northman was the fifth-biggest movie on Netflix’s worldwide viewership charts...

On Thursday, the talk of Telluride was what the Friday patron screening would be. On Friday, we learned it was Paolo Sorrentino’s Venice opener “La Grazia.” And at the annual Telluride brunch, the question circulating was: Which screening of Scott Cooper’s “Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere” would Bruce show up at? Friday or Saturday? (Both.)

The jampacked brunch up in the mountains brought many of the Labor Day weekend players together. When I introduced Paul Mescal (“The History of Sound” and “Hamnet”) to documentarian Morgan Neville (“Man on the Run”), they dove into a deep, enthusiastic conversation about their mutual fascination, Paul McCartney. Mescal is deep in rehearsals in London for the first of four Sam Mendes Beatles movies. He has visited McCartney’s sheep farm in Scotland, where he decompressed after the Beatles breakup, and also visited his Cavendish manse. Neville is debuting his post-Beatles McCartney Wings movie.

Telluride Film Festival has unveiled the full lineup for its 52nd edition, confirming a mix of world premieres and buzzy festival crossovers for the Labor Day weekend event in Colorado. New titles on the slate include Chloé Zhao’s Hamnet, Scott Cooper’s Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere, and Edward Berger’s Ballad of a Small Player, alongside Yorgos Lanthimos’ Bugonia and Richard Linklater’s Blue Moon. The announcement positions Telluride as an early bellwether for fall releases while maintaining its long-standing “discover it in the mountains” ethos.

Organizers set the dates for Friday, August 29 through Monday, September 1, noting more than sixty features, shorts, and revival programs across the weekend.

If you watched Ken Burns’ 16-hour “Country Music” documentary when it came out in 2019, you might’ve been wishing that every legend whose life flashed by too fast could get his or her own breakout, but Merle Haggard most of all. The singer-songwriter, who died in 2016, could frankly use a little help on the immortality front, especially if there’s a danger of the novelty song “Okie From Muskogee” becoming the one tune he’s remembered by … a fate that might be slightly worse than total cultural erasure.

Thankfully, he’s found that posthumous benefactor he needed in Ethan Hawke, whose “Highway 99: A Double Album” does Haggard right and then some — although if you’re a true-blue fan, you may think that even a three-hour-plus running time isn’t quite enough. Launched at the Telluride Film Festival, “Highway 99” has a lovely, easygoing rhythm to it, like one of its subject’s train songs,...

Every awards season brings national submission debates, but this year, France’s decision for its official entry in the international feature Oscar category has turned into a geopolitical and cinematic dilemma.

On one side is Richard Linklater’s “Nouvelle Vague,” a French-language homage to the cinematic movement that redefined global filmmaking, starring breakout Guillaume Marbeck and Zoey Deutch. On the other is “It Was Just an Accident,” Jafar Panahi’s quietly explosive French co-production — a film shot in exile and widely regarded as one of his boldest works yet.

France, which typically selects auteur-driven, culturally emblematic films, finds itself choosing between two unprecedented options: one from an American director (Linklater), the other from a revered Iranian filmmaker working under government restriction (Panahi). Further complicating matters, “Nouvelle Vague” is almost entirely in French, while “It Was Just an Accident” is in a mix of Farsi and Arabic. Both qualify under the Academy’s international feature guidelines.

Is it time for the “Hawke” to swoop in and nab his Oscar prey?

After four Academy Award nominations spanning both acting and writing, Ethan Hawke may have found the role that finally earns him an Oscar. In Richard Linklater’s “Blue Moon,” the actor delivers a searing performance as lyricist Lorenz Hart, one half of the legendary Broadway songwriting team Rodgers and Hart.

The film premiered in February at the Berlin International Film Festival, where Hawke’s co-star Andrew Scott won the Silver Bear for best supporting performance. “Blue Moon” has since screened at the Telluride Film Festival, where Hawke received one of the festival’s Silver Medallions — a distinction that has proven to be an Oscar bellwether.

Recent Silver Medallion recipients include eventual nominees Cate Blanchett for “Tár” (2022) and Adam Driver for “Marriage Story” (2019), along with eventual winners Anthony Hopkins for “The Father” (2020), Renée Zellweger for “Judy” (2019) and...

Meet today’s breakout class: Maya Hawke, daughter of Uma Thurman and Ethan Hawke. Jack Quaid, son of Meg Ryan and Dennis Quaid. Zoë Kravitz, child of Lisa Bonet and Lenny Kravitz. John David Washington, Margaret Qualley, Dakota Johnson, Maude Apatow. Even Destry Spielberg is directing now.

What was once an open secret has become marketable identity — the family tree isn’t just background anymore. Legacy, in today’s Hollywood, isn’t just a perk. It’s the pitch.

For much of the last century, the industry clung to the fiction that it ran on grit and luck — a waitress discovered at Schwab’s, a Sicilian immigrant bluffing his way into a studio job, a down-on-his-luck actor who sold his dog before writing Rocky. These weren’t just origin stories. They were the dream. Hollywood didn’t run on merit, but it sold the illusion that it did — and for a while,...

Nine years after Merle Haggard’s death at 79, Ethan Hawke has organized a public wake, and it’s a humdinger. A biography by way of California road trip and recording-studio extravaganza, Highway 99: A Double Album is, at its soul-stirring core, a gathering of several dozen musicians singing the country great’s praises, mainly by singing his songs.

In a sense Hawke is doing here what he did a few years ago in The Last Movie Stars, his docuseries portrait of Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward: He’s stirring up a conversation about a legendary performer. That earlier doc felt more theoretical for two key reasons: Hawke’s searching convos were confined to pandemic-era Zoom, and the subject was acting as opposed to music, with its more visceral immediacy. But while they’re very different experiences, the three-hour Highway 99 is fueled by the same exuberance that propelled Movie Stars.

This week, with Ryan Lattanzio covering the Venice International Film Festival, David Ehrlich joined “Screen Talk” co-host Anne Thompson from the mountains of Telluride, Colorado to discuss the 60-feature line-up for the Labor Day celebration of cinema.

David gives us early reviews of several films that are already breaking in Venice: He enjoyed Yorgos Lanthimos’ “Bugonia,” starring his usual suspects Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons, but wants to see the director get more ambitious next time. He also enjoyed Noah Baumbach’s “Jay Kelly,” in which George Clooney plays a version of himself, but would have liked Adam Sandler to have more to do.

At Telluride, Anne and David are excited to see two book adaptations: Chloé Zhao’s tearjerker “Hamnet” starring Paul Mescal and Jessie Buckley, and Philippa Lowthorpe’s “H is for Hawk,” starring Claire Foy, which deal with grief for a lost child and a father, respectively.

Telluride has announced its annual selection of films to play in Colorado’s Rocky Mountains and they include Noah Baumbach’s Venice entry Jay Kelly, as well as Cannes picks Urchin from Harris Dickinson, and Joachim Trier’s grand prize winner Sentimental Value.

The festival also brings first looks from Chloé Zhao’s TIFF-bound Hamnet with Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal,Aneil Karia’s Hamlet starring Riz Ahmed, Mary Bronstein’s Sundance hit If I Had Legs I’d Kick You featuring a career-best performance from Rose Byrne, and both Richard Linklater’s 2025 films Blue Moon from Berlinand Nouvelle Vague from Cannes.

Chloé Zhao’s “Hamnet,” Edward Berger’s “Ballad of a Small Player” and Scott Cooper’s “Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere” are among the films that will premiere at the 2025 Telluride Film Festival, organizers announced on Thursday.

The festival begins on Friday in the Colorado mountain town, with the lineup traditionally kept under wraps until the day before screenings begin.

Documentaries screening at the festival include the premieres of two music-oriented docs — Morgan Neville’s “Man on the Run,” which chronicles the first decade of Paul McCartney’s post-Beatles career, and Ethan Hawke’s “Highway 99: A Double Album,” a three-hour-plus exploration of pioneering country singer, Merle Haggard. Ivy Meeropol’s “Ask E.

The Telluride Film Festival has unveiled the lineup for its 52nd edition, showcasing a mix of world premieres, international debuts and awards-season hopefuls from some of cinema’s most acclaimed auteurs.

Among the buzziest titles in the main program, known as the Show, are the world premieres of Chloé Zhao’s Shakespearean-set drama “Hamnet,” starring Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal; Edward Berger’s psychological thriller “Ballad of a Small Player,” with Colin Farrell; and Scott Cooper’s music biopic “Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere,” headlined by two-time Emmy winner Jeremy Allen White. In addition, three films will arrive from the Venice Film Festival after debuting there: Yorgos Lanthimos’ “Bugonia,” with Jesse Plemons and Emma Stone; Noah Baumbach’s “Jay Kelly,” starring George Clooney and Adam Sandler; and Paolo Sorrentino’s “La Grazia,” the Italian drama opening Venice.

Other hot titles include a double dose of Richard Linklater with “Blue Moon,...

At the Telluride Film Festival, you never know who is going to stroll past you on the street, sit across from you on a gondola or catch a movie next to you in a cinema. This year, it might just be George Clooney, Werner Herzog, Jodie Foster, Jeremy Allen White, Wagner Moura, Claire Foy, Adam Sandler, Colin Farrell, Zoey Deutch, Dustin Hoffman, Riz Ahmed or one of the Skarsgards, father Stellan or son Alexander. They all have films in the lineup — which was announced by the fest on Thursday morning, includes over 60 features and shorts from more than 30 countries, and appears in full at the bottom of this post — and are expected to be in the Rockies over Labor Day weekend, along with subjects of documentaries that will be playing at the fest including David Remnick and E. Jean Carroll.

The Boss is coming to Telluride.

20th Century’s Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere from director Scott Cooper, starring Jeremy Allen White as the title star, is set to launch its world premiere Friday night at the 52nd annual Telluride Film Festival, which announced its official schedule Thursday.

See the full lineup below.

In addition to Cooper, White, co-star Jeremy Strong and others, Bruce Springsteen himself will be on hand in the Rockies for the premiere of this much awaited film focusing on the making of his landmark album Nebraska.

President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama made a lasting impression during their tenure at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Both routinely modeled empathy and human decency, leaving behind a legacy of kindness that is sorely missed at present.

Since the couple vacated the White House, they have tried their hand at filmmaking, launching their production label, Higher Ground Productions. It’s safe to say that they hit the ground running. Their first release, American Factory, debuted to universal acclaim and even took home the Oscar for Best Documentary in 2020.

In time, the duo eventually branched out, trying their hand at narrative fiction with the twisty thriller Leave the World Behind. It just so happens that Leave the World Behind struck a chord. In fact, it ranks as the most-watched paranoid thriller of all time on Netflix. Overall, it stands as the eighth most-watched English-language title on the streamer to date.

FX has scheduled the premiere for The Lowdown, the new series from Reservation Dogs co-creator Sterlin Harjo, for Tuesday, September 23. The network also released the official trailer for the drama, which stars Ethan Hawke. Hawke, who also serves as an executive producer, plays Lee Raybon, a self-styled “truthstorian” and citizen journalist in Tulsa. His […]

FX Sets Premiere Date for Sterlin Harjo’s ‘The Lowdown’ Starring Ethan Hawke...

The first trailer for Ethan Hawke's new original series The Lowdown has arrived, featuring the actor looking a little rough around the edges. The detective noir drama features Hawke as an investigator over his head, working on a case that may end up being his last if he isn't careful. Featuring an impressive ensemble of talent, The Lowdown looks to be a spiritual cousin to series like Fargo — which probably makes sense, since that show was also an FX favorite.

Created by Sterlin Harjo, The Lowdown serves as his return to the airwaves after the critically acclaimed Reservation Dogs, which he co-created. The trailer features Ethan Hawke's character, Lee Raybod,...

"Now and again, he gets in over his head..." FX has unveiled an official trailer for a streaming series called The Lowdown, a Tulsa, Oklahoma thriller about a journalist who digs too deep into the underbelly of a dangerous local family. Created by filmmaker Sterlin Harjo of the Seminole Nation of Oklahoma. Ethan Hawke stars as Lee Raybon. It follows the gritty exploits of citizen journalist Lee, a self-proclaimed Tulsa "truthstorian" whose obsession with the truth is always getting him into trouble... A determined bookstore owner in Tulsa moonlights as an investigative journalist, digging into local corruption. When his reporting uncovers sinister connections within, he must protect both his family and the truth.

Netflix's smash hit has officially broken a four-year streaming record to become its most popular movie of all time. Since 2021, Netflix's most-watched movie of all time had been Red Notice, sitting steady at 230.9 million views. However, the star-studded action-comedy featuring Dwayne Johnson, Ryan Reynolds, and Gal Gadot has now been unseated by Netflix's new smash hit.

The streaming service's top 10 most popular movies also include Carry-On (2024), the Taron Egerton-led action thriller, and Adam McKay's star-studded political satire Don't Look Up (2021), featuring the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Lawrence, Timothée Chalamet, Meryl Streep, and many more. Reynolds appears again in The Adam Project (2022), rounding out the top five.

A well-established trope in film noir is that the protagonist comes out somewhat worse for wear by the end of the story. From the looks of its trailer, FX’s forthcoming series The Lowdown will stay true to that.

As lead character Lee Raybon, Ethan Hawke gets beaten up (and manhandled, and shoved in the trunk of a car) a good amount in the trailer. The reason? Lee is a self-appointed “truthstorian” who is committed to exposing corruption in Tulsa, Oklahoma, which often gets him sideways with those in power.

The Lowdown is Sterlin Harjo’s follow-up to the critically hailed Reservation Dogs at FX. Watch the trailer for the “Tulsa noir” series below.

Here’s how FX describes The Lowdown: “When the publication of Lee’s latest exposé — a deep dive into the powerful Washberg family — is immediately followed by the suspicious suicide of Dale Washberg (Tim Blake Nelson...

The opening concept for FX’s upcoming series, The Lowdown, may remind some people of the Mel Gibson/Julia Roberts movie Conspiracy Theory, as Ethan Hawke plays a kooky conspiracy theorist who has managed to stumble on one that’s true. Sterlin Harjo, whose work includes Reservation Dogs, created, executive produces, writes and directs The Lowdown. FX has just released the new trailer which throws back to some 70s vibes. Hawke also serves as an executive producer and stars as citizen journalist Lee Raybon, a self-proclaimed Tulsa “truthstorian” whose obsession with the truth is always getting him into trouble.

The synopsis reads,

Along with unveiling the trailer, FX has also set a premiere date for the noir series led by actor Ethan Hawke.

The Oscar-winning actress will receive the accolade at a gala on Friday, Sept. 26 at the Kursaal Auditorium, followed by a screening of her latest film, the Cannes-premiering Die My Love, directed by Lynne Ramsay.

Lawrence has starred in acclaimed films such as Silver Linings Playbook, which earned her the Academy Award for Best Actress in 2012, American Hustle, Don’t Look Up, Joy, and The Hunger Games trilogy. In 2018, Lawrence expanded her influence behind the camera by co-founding production company Excellent Cadaver.

Together with her producing partner, Justine Ciarrocchi, Lawrence has built a dynamic slate of critically lauded projects, including Causeway, No Hard Feelings, and the documentaries Zurawski v. Texas and Bread & Roses.

Die My Love, also starring Robert Pattinson, Lakeith Stanfield, Nick Nolte and Sissy Spacek, will premiere at the...

Jeffrey Scotti Schroeder’s “Or Something” (2024) is a conversational film about two strangers who spend an entire day together walking through a city after a chance encounter. While watching it, I couldn’t help but think of Richard Linklater’s Before trilogy, especially Before Sunrise, which uses this classic setup that is all about those free-flowing conversations. The setup offers enough room to breathe life into the characters instead of letting them be in the service of a rigid plotline. Still, for it to pay off dramatically, the characters need to be fleshed out and should feel interesting, no matter what way.

That last part is challenging in the case of “Or Something,...

In our humble opinion, the optimal runtime of a movie is 90 minutes. The vast majority of stories put to celluloid can be set up, explored, and satisfactorily concluded in a tight hour and a half if in the hands of an astute director and a sharp screenwriter. There are exceptions of course: Christopher Nolan's big winner at the 96th Academy Awards, "Oppenheimer," clocked in at an impressive 180 minutes, and I would argue that every minute held its own necessary purpose.

Notwithstanding the Nolans of the world, though, a great 90-minute movie finds that sweet spot where entertainment and intrigue meets our ever waning attention spans. These movies can be...

When Philip Seymour Hoffman died in 2014, we lost one of the great actors – not just of his generation, but ever. And while we can watch any of his brilliant performances any time we want, his legacy is truly being carried on by his son, Cooper. Cooper Hoffman was first pulled in front of the camera by Paul Thomas Anderson, who directed Psh in five films, for 2021’s Licorice Pizza, since marking his own path. And while he has been praised himself, he still wishes he could talk to his dad about his experiences.

Earlier this year, Cooper Hoffman turned up in a production of Sam Shepard’s Curse of the Starving Class,...

1997’s Gattacais a cult classic because it explores timeless themes about the human soul and spirit. Envisioning a future society that's built on eugenics, the movie continues to spur ethical and social discourse in the present.

Science fiction fans can revisit Gattaca when it streams on Paramount+ on Sept. 1. Director Andrew Niccol crafted a compelling thriller drama with this gem of the genre. Its existential themes are further explored in his subsequent films The Truman Show, Simone and Anon. Initially shot under the working title "The Eighth Day" in reference to the Bible's creation story, it was later dropped because of a namesake foreign film. Gattaca failed at the...
