Exclusive: Screenwriter J S Mayank has been tapped by producers Kate Cohen, Alexander Vesely and Tony Robbins to join Oscar nominee and Bafta winner Lesley Paterson (All Quiet on the Western Front) in writing the feature adaptation of Viktor Frankl‘s classic treatise, Man’s Search for Meaning.
Paterson had been writing the script with her husband and writing partner Simon Marshall, as was reported in Deadline a year ago. At the time, Marshall had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.
Marshall died last June.

“Finding a writing partner who could understand and support me on this journey while at the same time servicing this masterpiece felt like an impossible ask,” says Paterson. “J S has stepped into this role seamlessly and I’m so honored and relieved to have teamed up with him.

Gene Hackman angrily bolted out of his chair and came at me. I swear he wanted to throw a punch.
This was Puerto Rico in 2000, during rehearsals for Under Suspicion, which my good buddy Stephen Hopkins was prepping to direct with stars Gene, Morgan Freeman, Monica Bellucci and Thomas Jane.
Those weeks of private rehearsals remain one of the greatest pleasures in my long career. Stephen, Gene, Morgan and I spent our days on an upper floor of a San Juan hotel, closed from recent hurricane damage, in a space the production built out to be identical to the actual set we would later use. It was mostly just the four of us every day for three weeks.
Stephen later told me, “If only I could have stopped you” from saying what I said to Gene. This screenplay was very much like a stage play. Stephen had sat with me...

Back in 2023, we heard that Gene Simmons of the rock band Kiss would be launching a new production company with Gary Hamilton (so the company is appropriately called Simmons/Hamilton Productions), and the first project they had given the greenlight was a shark thriller called Deep Water – with Deep Blue Sea director Renny Harlin attached to take the helm of the film! That film has since made its way through production, and Deadline reports that Magenta Light Studios, the distributor behind last year’s Strange Darling, has acquired the domestic rights to Deep Water, with plans to give it a theatrical release sometime in 2025.
Scripted by Pete Bridges and John Kim, Deep Water centers on an eclectic group of international passengers whose plane, en route from Los Angeles to Shanghai, is forced to make an emergency landing in shark-infested waters. The terrified group is forced to work together and overcome...

The hot talk of the town, Ana de Armas is all set to make her debut in the John Wick universe with her upcoming Ballerina – a piece that sounds like it could soon have her career skyrocketing even further. Over the years since she debuted in Hollywood, the Cuban-Spanish stunner has scored enough groundbreaking roles to establish herself as a prominent figure in the entertainment industry.

When the Fifty Shades of Grey movie was released in 2015, it made a splash, but plenty of great movies are comparable to the Fifty Shades series. Based on the books by E.L. James, Fifty Shades of Grey focuses on the central relationship between Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson) and Christian Grey (Jamie Doran), who push each other emotionally and through physical intimacy. While the most famous parts of the books and movies are the depictions of sex and Bdsm, they're not entirely accurate, and the films have faced criticism for their weak plot and mishandling of sex positivity.
However, films that fall into the romance and eroticism genres don't necessarily have to distance themselves from a compelling story structure. Including elements like the importance of self-discovery, sexual liberation, and even the humor that can be found in intimate moments makes these projects worthwhile. Onscreen depictions of sex have faced great criticism in recent years,...

Erotic thrillers are a bit of a lost art, enjoying a Golden Age in the ’80s before tapering off in the mid-’90s around the time the genre was parodied in 1993’s Fatal Instinct. By the 2000s, notable entries in the the genre had all but disappeared thanks to its success on the direct-to-video market and the advent of the internet with its easily accessible pornography. It has has gone through a bit of a resurgence lately with films like The Voyeurs, Deep Water and Sanctuary, and we can now add Mercedes Bryce Morgan‘s aptly-named Bone Lake to the list, who brings a knowing sense of humor and feminine perspective to the genre.

Get ready for Aaron Eckhart's upcoming shark movie Deep Water, which could be the Deep Blue Sea sequel audiences have waited for. Director Renny Harlin's return to shark-infested waters will surely bring back the excitement of his past horror hits. Eckhart's action star evolution continues in Deep Water, a film that promises wild deaths and thrilling action.
I can't wait for Aaron Eckhart's upcoming disaster movie, which promises to be the Deep Blue Sea I've waited 25 years to see. I can still vividly recall the visceral shock that rippled through the theater during Samuel L. Jackson's death in Deep Blue Sea in 1999, where his character is snatched by a shark in the middle of a stirring speech. This has since become the most iconic part of the Renny Harlin-directed blockbuster, but there's still plenty to enjoy about this finely crafted B-movie.
