During the final moments of Quentin Tarantino’s revisionist World War II drama “Inglorious Basterds” (2009), Brad Pitt’s foul-mouthed, no-nonsense team leader of the eponymous nazi-killing squad Lieutenant Aldo Raine asks the ruthless High Ranking S.S. Officer Hans Landa whether, once the war is over and he is left free, he will take his military regalia off. Typically, Lt. Raine would not hesitate terminating Third Reich officials of any ranking, for their crimes warrant only one fate. In the exceptional case that he must leave a Nazi alive for whichever reason, he would only do so under a strict condition: to mark them for life by carving a swastika on the individual’s forehead, an identifier for all the world to see that they would never be able to erase or hide, much less take off.

No resleeves this time – we must bid adieu to Netflix’s Altered Carbon. Actually, it was time to bid adieu to Altered Carbon months ago. According to reports, the streaming service called time on the pricey sci-fi drama series all the way back in April, but news of the show’s cancellation didn’t reach any of us until now, for reasons best known to Netflix.

Unlike Netflix’s recent choice to drop sophomore seasons of both The Society and I Am Not Ok With This, the decision not to pursue a potential third season of Laeta Kalogridis’ cyberpunk adaptation had nothing to do with pandemic logistics, Deadline confirms. It was just a standard case of ye olde “viewership vs. cost renewal review process” for Altered Carbon, which is arguably less comforting for fans of the series.

Having originally optioned Richard K. Morgan’s bestselling 2002 novel of the same name,...

The future isn't good for the Altered Carbon TV series. The Netflix sci-fi drama has been cancelled by the streaming service so there won't be a third season. The episodes of season two were released on February 27th. An anime movie was released on March 19th.

Season two of Altered Carbon stars Anthony Mackie, Renée Elise Goldsberry, Lela Loren, Simone Missick, Chris Conner, Dina Shihabi, and Torben Liebrecht. Will Yun Lee and James Saito guest star.  This adaptation of the Richard K. Morgan cyberpunk novel comes from creator Laeta Kalogridis. The story unfolds in the 24th Century when death is far from inevitable.

The second season of the series finds Takeshi Kovacs (Mackie), the lone surviving soldier of a group of elite interstellar warriors, continuing his centuries-old quest to find his lost love Quellcrist Falconer (Goldsberry). After decades...

Netflix has canceled its science-fiction series “Altered Carbon” after two seasons.

The series featured both Joel Kinnaman and Anthony Mackie as the lead character, Takeshi Kovacs. It was based on Richard K. Morgan’s novel of the same name, which took place in a society where the human mind has been digitized, thus giving people the ability to upload their mind into new bodies (referred to as “sleeves”).

Kinnaman played the character in season and Mackie took over for season two. In Morgan’s book series, Kovacs’ story spans hundreds of years, many different bodies and planets.

The series was produced by Skydance Television and executive produced by Alison Schapker, Laeta Kalogridis, James Middleton, Rose Lam, Bradley J. Fischer, James Vanderbilt, Mike Medavoy and Arnold W. Messer, alongside David Ellison, Dana Goldberg and Marcy Ross for Skydance.

“Altered Carbon” has been canceled at Netflix, Variety has confirmed.

The second season of the sci-fi series aired on the streaming service back in February, while the first season aired in 2018. An anime special titled “Resleeved,” which was set before the events of Season 1, was released in 2019.

The series was based on the novel of the same name by Richard K. Morgan. It followed the adventures of interstellar warrior Takeshi Kovacs, who was played by Joel Kinnaman in Season 1 and by Anthony Mackie in Season 2. According to an individual with knowledge of the decision, the decision to cancel the show was made due to Netflix’s traditional approach of cost versus viewership of a series.

Last week, it was announced that Netflix had pulled the plug on both “The Society” and “I’m Not Okay With This” due to budgetary issues surrounding increased health and safety costs related to the Covid-19 pandemic.

In a Gold Derby exclusive, we have learned the category placements of the key Emmy Awards contenders for Netflix. For this season, the streamer has returning hits “After Life” (Ricky Gervais), “Black Mirror” (Andrew Scott), “The Crown”, “Dead to Me”, “Glow” (Alison Brie), “The Kominsky Method” (Michael Douglas), “Ozark”, “Stranger Things” (Winona Ryder) as part of their 2020 campaign. Newcomers include “#blackAF” (Kenya Barris), “Living with Yourself” (Paul Rudd), “The Politician”, “Space Force” (Steve Carell) and “The Witcher” (Henry Cavill).

Below, the list of Netflix lead, supporting and guest submissions for their comedy, drama, TV movies and limited series. We’ve also got the full list of titles for variety, reality and other major genres. More names might be added by the studio on the final Emmy ballot. Also note that performers not included on this list may well be submitted by their personal reps.

13 Reasons Why

Drama Series

Drama Actor...

The German family drama, now in post-production, will star Sinje Irslinger, Til Schweiger and Heike Makatsch in the lead roles. Berlin-based sales outfit Picture Tree International has picked up the international rights to André Erkau’s family drama God You’re Such a Prick. The director’s latest cinematic endeavour was Happy Burnout (2016), a comedy revolving around an unemployed man diagnosed with burn-out syndrome, and starring Torben Liebrecht, Kostja Ullmann and Anke Engelke in the lead roles. The news about Picture Tree International’s acquisition was first reported by Variety. The script of God You’re Such a Prick, penned by Tommy Wosch and Katja Kittendorf, centres on a 16-year-old girl called Stefanie (Sinje Irslinger), whose world is turned upside down when she finds out she has terminal cancer right before a school graduation trip to Paris. When Stefanie’s parents (Til Schweiger and Heike Makatsch) decide that she should stay home instead,...

Takeshi Kovacs can’t smile. That’s just a fact or, better put, a defining facet of “Altered Carbon’s” lead character. After watching the first 10 hours of Netflix’s sci-fi adaptation — about a future where a person’s brain can be digitized into a portable “stack,” and then swapped into a new body to achieve immortality — it was clear the 300-year-old Envoy played (mostly) by Joel Kinnaman can fight well, shoot even better, and have remarkably nimble sex for a three-times-over centenarian.

But following that first season, my own digitized stack can only produce images of an angry Kinnaman, a sad Kinnaman, and, the most popular version, a confused Kinnaman, who’s blank face offers only the faintest hint of curiosity. The actor known for similarly hard-edged action roles in “Robocop” and “Suicide Squad” could dutifully perform Kovacs’ functions, just like his military-trained interstellar warrior, but he cannot smile.

Spoiler Alert: Do not keep reading if you have not yet watched Season 2 of “Altered Carbon,” streaming now on Netflix.

“Altered Carbon” Season 2 sees Anthony Mackie take over the role of Takashi Kovacs, the so-called Last Envoy.

In the new season, Kovacs is on an intergalactic hunt for revolutionary leader Quellcrist Falconer (Renée Elise Goldsberry), his mentor and lover. He eventually finds her on Harlan’s World, Kovacs’ home planet and a principal source of the alloy used to make the stacks that make re-sleeving possible. Season 2 showrunner Alison Schapker tells Variety that it was her and her team’s goal to craft a Kovacs that was significantly different from the Season 1 character, who was played by Joel Kinnaman.

“I feel like the Kovacs in Season 1 was more that noir hero who had seen it all and had no s—s left to give,” she says. “In Season 2, he’s...

This spoiler-free review is based on the first three episodes of Altered Carbon season 2 but contains spoilers for season 1.

Altered Carbon pulled out all the stops in season one, introducing viewers to a cyberpunk world ruled by wealthy nigh-immortals and others who, for a price, can digitally transfer their consciousness into new bodies. But with the audience’s cynical proxy embodied by Joel Kinnaman as Takeshi Kovacs, a soldier from a previous era who is awakened to defend the powerful, viewers might be wondering what will happen now that the characters in season one are either dead or have been forced to take on different “sleeves” with new actors embodying them?

The good news is, Altered Carbon is in good hands with Anthony Mackie...

The trailer for Season 2 of “Altered Carbon” is out, and the long-awaited return of the Netflix series finds Takeshi Kovacs (Anthony Mackie replacing Joel Kinnaman) still searching for his long lost love, Quellcrist Falconer (Renée Elise Goldsberry). But it soon becomes clear that he doesn’t know her as well as he thought.

The premise of the sci-fi series, which aired its first season in 2018, is that society has been so radically transformed by new technology that consciousness can now be digitalized, human bodies are interchangeable, and death is no longer permanent, according to Netflix.

Lela Loren has already lined up her return to the small screen.

The former Power actress will play Danica Harlan in the second season of Altered Carbon.

Netflix has confirmed that her casting was kept under wraps, and the actress has already filmed all of her scenes in Vancouver, British Columbia.

It's not surprising that the news was kept quiet, especially when you consider that Loren exited her series regular role on Power on Sunday.

Power Season 6 Episode 1 was a wild start to the sixth and final season, and I won't be going into detail on that one in case you have yet to watch the episode.

In 1960 a team of secret agents, led by Mossad agent Peter Malkin, set out to track down Adolf Eichmann, the Nazi officer who masterminded the transportation logistics that brought millions of innocent Jews to their deaths in concentration camps during the Holocaust…

Director Chris Weitz’s Operation Finale follows the haunting and terrifying true story of a team of Israeli secret service agents and their tense mission to identify and extract Adolf Eichmann, an architect of the Holocaust who escaped justice and fled to Argentina. Weitz film while almost perfectly evokes such a perfect 1960′s cinematic aesthetic and utilises a terrific cast, does little to showcase the haunting and intense thriller...

MGM’s Mossad spy thriller Operation Finale opened yesterday to $1M at 1,818 locations, a solid start for a political thriller aimed at adults and in sync with similar titles that have played the last weekend of summer.

Yesterday’s results are ahead of the opening day of the 2011 Labor Day weekend political thriller, Focus Features’ The Debt ($970K which went on to a $8.2M 3-day, $12.8M 4-day) and ahead of Oscar-winner The Constant Gardener ($929K opening day, $8.6M 3-day, $10.9M 4-day). Rotten Tomatoes’ score on Operation Finale was 63% fresh, but CinemaScore audiences gave an A- to this Chris Weitz directed pic which stars Oscar Isaac, Ben Kingsley, Nick Kroll, Melanie Laurent, Lior Raz, Joe Alwyn, Haley Lu Richardson, Michael Aronov, Ohad Knoller, Greg Hill, Torben Liebrecht, Mike Hernandez, Greta Scacchi and Pêpê Rapazote.

MGM has released the final trailer for Oscar Isaac's great looking thriller Operation Finale. The story centers on the real-life event of a spy who is brought in to hunt and capture a Nazi war criminal named Adolf Eichmann who was hiding out in Argentina in the 1960s. He was one of Hitler's deadliest lieutenants.

Isaac (Star Wars: The Last Jedi) stars as Peter Malkin, "the Mossad member and head of a group of Israeli spies who took him down. Eichmann (Ben Kingsley) had murdered Malkin’s sister and her children and was the organizer of the transport of Jews to concentration camps in Europe. He escaped to Austria and then to Argentina after WWII."

MGM has released the final trailer for Operation Finale; the story of how a Mossad agent captures the Nazi officer, Adolf Eichmann.

The film is based on the team that hunted down and captured Adolf Eichmann, one of the major architects of the Holocaust. Eichmann organised the transport of Jews from countries all over Europe to concentration camps where millions were murdered. After the war, he fled to his home country of Austria and then moved to Argentina. He was finally brought to Israel on his capture to face crimes against humanity and the Jewish people. He was sentenced to hang and was executed in 1962, unrepentant all the way to the grave.

Directed by Chris Weitz, the film stars Oscar Isaac, Ben Kingsley, Lior Raz, Melanie Laurent, Nick Kroll, Joe Alwyn, Haley Lu Richardson, Michael Aronov, Ohad Knoller, Greg Hill, Torben Liebrecht, Mike Hernandez, Greta Scacchi and Pêpê Rapazote.

"For the first time in our history we will judge our executioner. For the sake of the world, do not fail..." MGM Studios has debuted the second & final trailer for Chris Weitz's new film, titled Operation Finale, about Mossad agents in Argentina tracking down Adolf Eichmann, the infamous architect of the Holocaust. Based on a true story, Oscar Isaac stars as Peter Malkin who heads to Argentina with a team of secret agents in hopes of finding and capturing Eichmann. The first trailer for this was fantastic, and this one is even better. The full ensemble cast for this thriller includes Ben Kingsley, Lior Raz, Melanie Laurent, Nick Kroll, Joe Alwyn, Haley Lu Richardson, Michael Aronov, Ohad Knoller, Greg Hill, Torben Liebrecht, Mike Hernandez, Greta Scacchi, and Pêpê Rapazote. This has quickly become one of my most anticipated films to see this fall, I'm really looking forward to it.

“We’re all animals,” says Sir Ben Kingsley’s Adolf Eichmann in this intense trailer for Operation Finale. “Some of us just have bigger teeth than others.”

So it goes in director Chris Weitz’s thriller about the Israeli “catch and extract” operation in Argentina to bring to justice the chief architect of Hitler’s Holocaust.

This trailer – the last look at the thriller before MGM releases the film in theaters on Wednesday, August 29 – highlights, among other aspects of the movie, the psychological battle of wills between Kingsley’s Eichmann and Oscar Isaac’s Peter Malkin, one of the Israeli agents tasked with capturing the Nazi.

In exchanges that recall the evil mind games from classics like The Silence of the Lambs and The Exorcist, Eichmann, sounding like evil incarnate, tells Isaac’s agent, “My job was simple: save the country I love from being destroyed. Is your job any different?...

It's nearly the end for X Company. Today, Ovation announced the TV show's third and final season will premiere in August.

Exclusive: MGM’s Operation Finale, which follows a team of secret agents in their pursuit of Holocaust Nazi architect Adolf Eichmann 15 years after World War II, is moving up from its Sept. 14 opening to August 29, the Wednesday before the four-day Labor Day stretch.

We hear the film tested quite well in the mid 80s in the top two boxes in a Los Angeles-area screening, but tested through the roof in the high 90s elsewhere in the country. Labor Day is a prime time when upscale and older audiences head to the cinema, and with Operation Finale‘s new date, it gives the Chris Weitz-directed movie a jump on the crowded fall awards season competition.

Other notable adult-oriented pics that launched over Labor Day include The Constant Gardener ($33.5M domestic, plus four Oscar noms and a best supporting actress win for Rachel Weisz), George Clooney thriller The American ($35.6M), John Hillcoat...

This first trailer for the upcoming film Operation Finale does a great job of building the tension for the story that it tells. That story centers on the real-life event of a spy who is brought in to hunt and capture a Nazi war criminal named Adolf Eichmann in Argentina in the 1960s.

Oscar Isaac (Star Wars: The Last Jedi) stars as Peter Malkin, "the Mossad member and head of a group of Israeli spies who took him down. Eichmann (Ben Kingsley) had murdered Malkin’s sister and her children and was the organizer of the transport of Jews to concentration camps in Europe. He escaped to Austria and then to Argentina after WWII."

Operation Finale was directed by Chris Weitz (About a Boy) from a script written by Matthew Orton. The film also stars Lior Raz, Melanie Laurent (Inglorious Basterds), Nick Kroll (The League), Joe Alwyn (Billy Lynn’s...

MGM has released their first trailer for Operation Finale, a post-World War II period thriller staring Ben Kingsley and Oscar Isaac. Kingsley plays Adolf Eichmann who, as described in the trailer as “Hitler’s deadliest lieutenant,” was personally responsible for overseeing the transportation and subsequent murder of millions of innocent Jews during the Holocaust. Taking place after the conclusion of World War II, the film tells the incredible true story of Israel’s intelligence service – the Mossad – and their plan to “catch and extract” the fleeing Eichmann from Argentina. Isaac plays Mossad operative Peter Malkin who’s assigned to execute said operation – and he feels the weight of mission as he’s warned in the trailer: “If you succeed, for the first time in our history, we will judge our executioner. If you fail, he escapes justice, perhaps forever. I beg of you, do not fail.”

Chris Weitz directed Operation Finale...

The first trailer for Operation Finale is here. WWII dramas have been a staple of cinema pretty much ever since the war ended. While they often turn out to be great cinematic experiences, it also seems like we're getting to a point where many of these stories have been told. Then something like this comes along that promises to tell a very different kind of war story on the big screen. This movie actually takes place years after the war, but deals with tying up one of the most heinous and important loose ends that needed tying up. It's very early, but this looks like the kind of movie that could have Oscar buzz written all over it.

This trailer is a bit understated in some ways. This isn't a war movie in the typical sense. While we may see some flashback battle sequences, this is a movie that focuses...

Oscar Isaac chases down one of the architects of the Holocaust in MGM’s first trailer for “Operation Finale,” the historical drama about the capture of Adolf Eichmann.

The trailer opens with Eichmann, played by Ben Kingsley, supervising the mass murder of hundreds of concentration camp prisoners, then defending his actions in a voiceover.

“You have no interest in what I have to say,” he says. “Unless it confirms what you think you already know. My job was simple: save the country I love from being destroyed. Is your job any different?”

Chris Weitz directs the drama from Matthew Orton’s screenplay about the capture of Eichmann, who organized the transport of Jews from all over Europe to concentration camps, where an estimated 6 million people were killed. When World War II was ending, Eichmann fled to his home country of Austria and then moved to Argentina. Eichmann was captured in Argentina in 1960 by the Mossad,...

The first trailer for Chris Weitz’s Operation Finale, starring Oscar Isaac and Ben Kingsley has arrived.

The film is based on the team that hunted down and captured Adolf Eichmann, one of the major architects of the Holocaust. Eichmann organised the transport of Jews from countries all over Europe to concentration camps where millions were murdered. After the war, he fled to his home country of Austria and then moved to Argentina. He was finally brought to Israel on his capture to face crimes against humanity and the Jewish people. He was sentenced to hang and was executed in 1962, unrepentant all the way to the grave.

Directed by Chris Weitz, the film stars Oscar Isaac, Ben Kingsley, Lior Raz, Melanie Laurent, Nick Kroll, Joe Alwyn, Haley Lu Richardson, Michael Aronov, Ohad Knoller, Greg Hill, Torben Liebrecht, Mike Hernandez, Greta Scacchi and Pêpê Rapazote.

“My job was simple,” says the man heard here in this new trailer for MGM’s Operation Finale. “Save the country I loved from being destroyed.” Self-justifying to the end, that man is Adolf Eichmann, the Nazi logistical mastermind responsible for the deaths of millions of Jews in concentration camps.

Portrayed by Ben Kingsley, Eichmann is seen in flashbacks to World War II and years later in Argentina, where he’s hunted by a team that includes Mossad agent Peter Malkin (Oscar Isaac). Operation Finale traces Malkin’s 1960 attempts to deliver Eichmann to the world’s justice.

“If you fail,” Malkin is told, “he escapes justice, perhaps forever. I beg you do not fail.”

The thriller also stars Lior Raz, Melanie Laurent, Nick Kroll, Joe Alwyn, Haley Lu Richardson, Michael Aronov, Ohad Knoller, Greg Hill, Torben Liebrecht, Mike Hernandez, Greta Scacchi and Pêpê Rapazote.

Chris Weitz directs from Matthew Orton’s script.
