So, check out the 9 best films coming to Paramount+ in August 2025 with a 90% or higher Rotten Tomatoes score.

Adaptation (August 1) Rt Score: 90% Credit – Columbia Pictures

Adaptation is a comedy-drama film directed by Spike Jonze from a screenplay by Charlie Kaufman. Based on the 1998 non-fiction book titled The Orchid Thief by author Susan Orlean, the 2002 film follows writer Charlie Kaufman as he is tasked with adapting a book by Susan Orlean into a screenplay, but his crippling self-doubt and freeloading brother make the task extremely difficult.

Exclusive: Winning an Emmy for October 7 doc We Will Dance Again was a moment to take stock for Emilio Schenker, the co-founder of MGM-backed Israeli studio Sipur.

While he was delighted to be recognized with a gong that all TV producers dream about winning, the moment was bittersweet as it came just 48 hours after the death of Sipur President Michael Peter Schmidt.

Schmidt was a legend of the international TV game, a hugely popular, larger-than-life personality who Schenker said was nicknamed “the oracle.”

“Michael was in this industry for 35 years and he never won an Emmy,” Schenker told Deadline, sitting down with us in a coffee shop in Soho earlier this month. “And he won his first Emmy 48 hours after he died. So it was bittersweet. We dedicated the Emmy to him. He dedicated so much time and energy to this project.”

Last year, an adaptation of the Stephen King novel The Long Walk (which was, like The Running Man and Thinner, published under the pen name Richard Bachman) went into production, with director Francis Lawrence, whose previous credits include Constantine, I Am Legend, Water for Elephants, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Parts 1 and 2, Red Sparrow, Slumberland, and The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, at the helm. Lionsgate will be releasing the film on September 12th. It sees a group of teenage boys compete in an annual contest known as “The Long Walk,” where they must maintain a certain walking speed or get shot. The film had a presence at the San Diego Comic-Con, and today, as JoBlo continues our coverage over at #SDCC2025, our Eic Chris Bumbray caught up with the iconic Mark Hamill and David Jonsson, along with producer Roy Lee, Tut Nyuot,...

Lionsgate has just released the official trailer for The Long Walk, a new dystopian horror film based on Stephen King’s 1979 novel, written under his pen name Richard Bachman. The film is directed by Francis Lawrence, known for The Hunger Games series, and it’s set to hit U.S. theaters on September 12, 2025.

The story takes place in a grim future where the U.S. is controlled by a brutal regime. Every year, a group of teenage boys is forced to take part in a walking contest. It sounds simple, but there’s a deadly twist: if they drop below three miles per hour for too long, they’re killed. The walk only ends when one boy is left standing.

The cast is packed with rising stars and familiar faces. Cooper Hoffman plays the lead role of Raymond Garraty. David Jonsson takes on the role of Peter McVries, and Mark Hamill...

The first trailer for The Long Walk has just been released during Sdcc, giving fans a chilling look at the upcoming Stephen King adaptation that’s set to hit theaters on September 12, 2025. Directed by Francis Lawrence, the film is based on King’s 1979 novel written under his pen name Richard Bachman.

It’s a tense, dystopian horror story set in a version of the U.S. where freedom is gone and survival is everything.

The movie follows a group of teenage boys who are forced to take part in a brutal walking contest. The rules are simple, but deadly, you must keep walking at a speed of at least three miles per hour, and if you slow down too much or stop, you’re executed on the spot.

Only one walker is allowed to survive, and the last one standing wins. It’s a test of endurance, fear, and pain,...

Before Mindhunter captured the attention of Netflix fans everywhere, David Fincher put out a dramatized true crime film that would forever shape the genre. In 2007, the famed filmmaker paired with an all-star cast that included Jake Gyllenhaal (Spider-Man: Far From Home), Mark Ruffalo (Avengers: Endgame) and Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man), to unpack one of the biggest mysteries in true crime that continues to perplex us to this day — the identity of the Zodiac killer. Aptly titled Zodiac, the film follows the story first penned by Robert Graysmithin his two nonfiction books, Zodiac and Zodiac Unmasked. A screenplay by James Vanderbilt (Scream VI) perfectly transforms the research done by the once political cartoonist (Graysmith) from page to big-screen production, as audiences tag along on the initial hunt for the famed killer. And soon, Paramount+ subscribers can do just that, as Zodiac is set for an arrival on the streamer next month.

As the fall festivals begin to roll out their lineups (a phrase you’ll be seeing a lot of on IndieWire in the coming days), a word of both caution and delight: don’t forget about the festival films that have already premiered elsewhere, from Sundance to Cannes. The Toronto International Film Festival certainly has not, as today’s full lineup of Gala and Special Presentations includes plenty of previously-premiered films that are already ranking among the year’s best.

We’re talking Sundance standouts like Mary Bronstein’s “If I Had Legs I’d Kick You” and Clint Bentley’s “Train Dreams,” plus Cannes hits likes Joachim Trier’s “Sentimental Value,” Mascha Schilinski’s “Sound of Falling,” Jafar Panahi’s “It Was Just an Accident,” Richard Linklater’s “Nouvelle Vague,” and Óliver Laxe’s “Sirāt.”

The film, starring Hoffman and Leo Woodall, is directed by Oscar-winning documentary filmmaker Daniel Roher (Navalny) in his feature debut.

The cast also includes Havana Rose Liu and Lior Raz.

The last few decades have been filled with a lot of original content that became extremely profitable, so studios decided to bank on that success with unwarranted sequels or reboots. One of those franchises includes Independence Day.

The 1996 sci-fi film marked one of Will Smith's breakout roles and won an Oscar for Best Visual Effects. The movie was extremely successful at the box office, becoming the highest-earning film that year, so two decades later, Independence Day: Resurgence followed, starring The Hunger Games star Liam Hemsworth in the leading role.Independence Day: Resurgence wasn't the same hit as the original was, but it's now becoming a success on streaming, FlixPatrol reports.

Independence Day: Resurgence has just debuted in the Top 10 overall charts on HBO Max in the United States. At the top of the charts, Sinners continues its dominance, followed by And Just Like That..., Matt Damon and Pedro Pascal's creature featureThe Great Wall,...

Whew. That took longer than expected but you can now see all of the "April Foolish" first-round predictions for this Oscar year, albeit compiled in May & June and delivered to you in early July. Since the first wave of 20 categories takes so long to compile (updates are easier) we should note up front that James Vanderbilt's Nuremberg, another film centered on the Nuremberg Trials, was scheduled for a November 2025 release after the weeks of research for these charts so it is not yet included.  That said we can hardly claim it a certainty as a competitor. World War II is no longer automatic "Bait" for voters, Vanderbilt is not (yet) an Oscar player and though the cast has four previously nominated actors none are the sort that Oscar voters Always watch regardless. Anyway, we'll save it for the next up date.

What follows are a dozen key questions were...

Stars: Jake Gyllenhaal, Robert Downey Jr, Mark Ruffalo, Anthony Edwards, Brian Cox, John Carroll Lynch | Written by James Vanderbilt, Robert Graysmith | Directed by David Fincher

David Fincher’s Zodiac has long been regarded as one of the most meticulously crafted and psychologically resonant thrillers of the 21st century. With its chilling true-crime narrative, obsessive attention to detail, and moody, restrained performances, the film has only grown in reputation since its 2007 debut. This new 4K Uhd release offers not just the best home viewing experience to date, but a stunning reminder of just how masterful Zodiac truly is.

The first thing to praise here is the video presentation. Remastered in native 4K from the original digital source, the transfer is nothing short of spectacular. Fincher’s clinical precision is on full display – every frame is awash in rich, filmic detail and an icy digital cleanliness that enhances the film’s underlying tension.

Last year, an adaptation of the Stephen King novel The Long Walk (which was, like The Running Man and Thinner, published under the pen name Richard Bachman) went into production, with director Francis Lawrence, whose previous credits include Constantine, I Am Legend, Water for Elephants, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Parts 1 and 2, Red Sparrow, Slumberland, and The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, at the helm. Lionsgate will be releasing the film on September 12th – and today, a batch of character posters have been unveiled! You can check them out at the bottom of this article.

An adaptation of The Long Walk has been trudging through development hell for decades. At one point, the rights were in the hands of Frank Darabont, who made the King adaptations The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile, and The Mist. Then the rights passed over to New Line Cinema,...

Big Game (Rent on Prime Video) Credit – Entertainment One

Big Game is an action-adventure film directed by Jalmari Helander, who also co-wrote the screenplay with Petri Jokiranta.

Leo Woodall has joined Rachel Weisz in the upcoming Netflix limited series “Vladimir.” He will play the titular role in the show based on the Julia May Jonas book of the same name.

Weisz, who also serves as an executive producer for the series, stars as a woman whose life begins to fall apart as she finds herself captivated by Vladimir, a new colleague and enigmatic figure in her life.

“Full of sexy secrets, dark humor and complex characters, ‘Vladimir’ is about what happens when a woman goes hell-bent to turn her fantasies into reality,” Netflix’s logline reads.

Jonas will co-write the eight-episode miniseries with Kate Robin, both of whom will also EP with Merman’s Sharon Horgan, Stacy Greenberg and Kira Carstensen, as well as Small Dog Picture Company’s Jason Winer and Jon Radler.

“Vladimir” marks Woodall’s second time at bat for Netflix following his starring...

Netflix has found its Vladimir. One Day breakout Leo Woodall will star opposite Rachel Weisz in the streamer’s upcoming limited series Vladimir, based on the acclaimed novel by Julia May Jonas. The 8-episode psychological drama — which is going to mix dark humor with seduction and suspense, how sexy — is being produced by 20th Television and is set to begin filming later this year.

Woodall, who's probably best known for his standout turn in The White Lotus Season 2 and as Roxster in Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, will play the titular role. He joins Weisz, who is also executive producing the series through a team that includes creator Julia May Jonas, Merman’s Sharon Horgan, and Small Dog Picture Company’s Jason Winer.

Leo Woodall is set to lead the new Netflix limited series Vladimir, adapted from Julia May Jonas’ acclaimed novel. He stars as the titular character opposite Rachel Weisz.

In the series written by Jonas, as a woman’s (Weisz) life unravels, she becomes obsessed with her captivating new colleague (Woodall). Full of sexy secrets and dark humor, the series is about what happens when a woman goes hell-bent to turn her fantasies into reality.

The eight-episode project was greenlit at the streamer in March with Weisz attached to star and executive opposite creator and writer Jonas. In addition to Jonas and Weisz, executive producers include Sharon Horgan, Stacy Greenberg and Kira Carstensen for Merman, Jason Winer and Jon Radler for Small Dog Picture Company, Shari Springer Berman and Robert Pulcini. 20th Television, where Small Dog had an overall deal, is the studio.

Idris Elba has been in the entertainment industry for three decades now, carving a unique niche for himself in Hollywood. Over these years, his commanding presence, razor-sharp charisma, and effortless ability to blend intensity with humor have made him a standout in the action-comedy landscape.

From his breakout role as Stringer Bell in HBO’s series The Wire to his portrayal of Heimdall in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Elba has consistently proven his might no matter what the genre. Whether it be a film like The Mountain Between Us or his role in the drama series Luther, trust Elba to give a swoon-worthy performance, one that transports the viewers to whatever world he is in.

Now, he is set to take the centre stage again, in yet another action-comedy called Heads of State. Directed by Ilya Naishuller and produced by Amazon Studios, the film also stars John Cena, Priyanka Chopra,...

Scream 7, the official return of the Scream franchise after a three-year hiatus, is set for release in February 2026. Fans remain clueless about the details of the slasher sequel, with Paramount Pictures keeping things close to the chest. During filming, the cast and crew were vocal when speaking about the horror sequel, but lately, things have been quiet on the Ghostface front. Fortunately, Anna Camp, one of the franchise's newcomers, has spilled a few details. However, Camp did not spoil anything important, and simply preferred to raise anticipation about the return of none other than Sidney Prescott herself, Neve Campbell.

In an exclusive interview with MovieWeb's George Edelman, Camp talked about her arrival in one of the most beloved horror franchises of all time. It's been a long time coming for the actor whose previous horror credentials include TV appearances in True Blood, Creepshow and You. Camp's latest work is the action comedy Bride Hard,...

In Highlander, there can only be one. Still, adding actors to the cast of Henry Cavill’s upcoming reboot sounds like a good idea. According to Collider, Oscar-winning actor Russell Crowe is officially joining the cast. The forthcoming reboot of Highlander features Cavill in the lead role, with John Wick mastermind Chad Stahelski directing, and cameras beginning to roll this Autumn.

Previously, Stahelski told Collider that his Highlander project is more than a reboot. It’s a chapter in the franchise meant to broaden the saga to untapped and unknown parts.

Stahelski has also teased the timeline for the movie. “We’re bringing it forward from the early 1500s in the highlands to the beyond present-day New York and Hong Kong, and seeing how it goes,” he said. “There’s big opportunity for action. There’s a chance to play a character that not a lot of people get to play.

Sony Pictures Classics has picked up the Russell Crowe period legal drama, Nuremberg, and seems to be setting the film for an awards season run.

Don’t call it a comeback, but could Russell Crowe be headed for another tilt at Oscars glory? No, really: don’t call it a comeback – it’s not like Crowe has disappeared or taken a hiatus from acting. The last five years or so have seen him pop up in some really fun genre material which has more than offset the occasional uninspired appearance in a superhero film.

With the upcoming Nuremberg however, could Crowe be headed back to the very peak of critical adoration? It’s been a quarter of a century since he won the Best Actor Oscar for 2000’s Gladiator, a win that came in the midst of a blistering run that saw him nominated three times in three years, The Insider...

Scream and Ready or Not producer James Vanderbilt teamed up with Russell Crowe, Rami Malek, and Michael Shannon for Nuremberg, a historical drama set in post-war Germany. Arranged by Bluestone Entertainment and Walden Media, the project is inspired by Jack El Hai’s book The Nazi and the Psychiatrist. Vanderbilt directs from a script he wrote, with production starting in February in Hungary. Sony Pictures Classics has announced its acquisition of the film and has scheduled a release for November 7, 2025, ahead of the 80th anniversary of the Trials.

Nuremberg chronicles the true story of the eponymous trials held by the Allies against the defeated Nazi regime. The film centers on American psychiatrist Douglas Kelley (Malek), who is tasked with determining whether Nazi prisoners are fit to stand trial for their war crimes and finds himself in a complex battle of wits with Hermann Göring (Crowe), Hitler’s right-hand man.

Joining Crowe,...

Russell Crowe's new thriller, Nuremberg, has received a release date. Written and directed by James Vanderbilt – known for writing Zodiac, The Amazing Spider-Man, Independence Day: Resurgence, and several Scream movies – the upcoming thriller tells the true story of the trials conducted by the Allied powers to prosecute the defeated Nazi leadership in Germany after World War II. In addition to Crowe, its star-studded ensemble cast includes Rami Malek, Leo Woodall, Michael Shannon, Richard E. Grant, Colin Hanks, John Slattery, and many more.

Now, the upcoming thriller has received a release date. According to Variety, Nuremberg has been set for a nationwide theatrical release on November 7 after Sony Pictures Classics secured the rights. The release date coincides with the 80th anniversary of the Nuremberg Trials.

The studio has also confirmed plans to release Nuremberg in theaters nationwide on November 7 later this year.

Leo Woodall, who starred in The White Lotus Season 2 and recently led Apple TV+’s Prime Target series, will also star in the film.

Ethan Embry, the actor famous for his roles in 1990s films like Can't Hardly Wait and White Squall, is set to make his debut in the Scream franchise in 2026. Embry will have a supporting role in Scream 7, the Kevin Williamson sequel that will essentially reboot the series created by Wes Craven in 1996. The actor recently revealed that he'd been seeking a part in the beloved horror franchise since its beginning, but after he auditioned for Craven, the feedback was not the best.

Embry told the anecdote in an exclusive video for Bloody Disgusting posted on their Instagram account. The actor showed his gratitude for the opportunity to join the iconic horror series, and recalled his failed audition to join the classic cast in 1996 during the peak of his career. Those looking for Scream 7 spoilers should know that he revealed nothing about the film:

"The one thing that I...

A major dream came true for Ethan Embry this year, when he achieved something he set out to do a full three decades ago — get cast in a Scream movie. While chatting with Bloody Disgusting, the actor, who will soon appear inScream 7, opened up about the “absolutely incredible” time he had filming the production, which is set to slice into cinemas at the beginning of next year. Keeping specifics close to his chest, Embry said, “The one thing I can tell you about Scream 7 is that it was absolutely incredible to be invited. That is a lovely community of people — from the very beginning to what it is now.”

Like many of his other cast mates on the Kevin Williamson-helmed film, the Grace and Frankie alum is sworn to secrecy and dares not to say too much lest he drop a spoiler. Instead, the actor took a minute...

Actor Ethan Embry is currently doing the press rounds for his new horror movie Alma & the Wolf, which is set to receive a theatrical and digital release this Friday, June 20th – and our friends at Bloody Disgusting took the opportunity to ask him about another genre project he’s been working on, Scream 7. Embry couldn’t say much about the slasher sequel, but he did say that it was “incredible” to have the chance to be in the movie, especially since he auditioned for a role in the original Scream almost thirty years ago… and that audition didn’t go well.

Scream 7 started filming at the start of January, aiming for a February 27, 2026 release date, with Kevin Williamson, who wrote the screenplay for the original Scream, directing from a screenplay by 2022’s Scream and Scream VI writer Guy Busick, who crafted the story with his co-writer on the fifth and sixth films,...

Scream 7 director Kevin Williamson opened up about Sidney Prescott’s long-awaited return in the next chapter of the long-running slasher franchise. After skipping 2023’s Scream VI due to a pay dispute with the studio, Neve Campbell is finally set to reprise her iconic role as Sidney.

During a recent interview with Collider, Williamson shared his excitement for fans to see what’s next with Campbell’s character, teasing another new chapter to the complicated life of the beloved final girl as we get to see her as a wife and mother. “I’m excited because I love Neve Campbell so much, and I love the cast,” he said. “I’m just totally immersed in Sidney Prescott, and who she is, and everything she’s been through, and all these different incarnations of her life, as seen through the entire franchise.”

Sidney’s journey started in 1996’s Scream, where she...

Scream 7 started filming at the start of January, aiming for a February 27, 2026 release date, with Kevin Williamson, who wrote the screenplay for the original Scream, directing from a screenplay by 2022’s Scream and Scream VI writer Guy Busick, who crafted the story with his co-writer on the fifth and sixth films, James Vanderbilt. (Vanderbilt is also a producer on the most recent sequels.) You might think this would be a gig Williamson would have dove right into, but it turns out that star Neve Campbell had to do some convincing, and it was her idea to have him direct the movie in the first place!

Spyglass and Paramount once intended to make a Scream 7 that would have starred Scream (2022) and Scream VI leads Melissa Barrera and Jenna Ortega, with Freaky and Happy Death Day director Christopher Landon at the helm. But then Ortega allegedly asked for a substantial...

While he's very well known for playing a Marvel superhero in several major films, Chris Evans also has a DC role many fans have forgotten. After 15 years, many fans are revisiting that role by checking out The Losers, which is rising on the HBO Max streaming charts.

As of June 13, The Losers is No. 5 on HBO Max's Top 10 movies on streaming in the world (per FlixPatrol). Notably, however, the film is available in other territories, but not currently in the United States. Directed by Sylvain White, the film was written by Peter Berg and James Vanderbilt, though it's based on the DC comic book by Andy Diggle and Jock. It was released in 2010, though it was not a big box office success, making less than $30 million against a budget of $25 million.

Evans was a part of the movie's star-studded ensemble cast. The Losers also starred other MCU alums, including Zoe Saldana...
