Margot Robbie is clueless as to why her and Brad Pitt’s movie ‘Babylon’ was a box office flop.The 34-year-old actress and the 60-year-old Hollywood star starred as Nellie Laroy and Jack Conrad in Damien Chazelle’s 2022 historical black comedy drama, and the ‘Barbie’ star still can’t fathom why it wasn’t such a big hit with cinemagoers and is still hopeful that it will follow in the footsteps of 1994 prison drama ‘Shawshank Redemption’ and become a cult classic years later. During an appearance on the 'Talking Pictures' podcast, host Ben Mankiewicz said he couldn't understand why people disliked the flick – which made an abysmal $64.9 million worldwide - so much.Margot agreed: “I am still saying that. “I love it.”She continued: “I know I am biased because I am very close to the project and I obviously believe in it, but I still can’t figure out why people hated it.

Margot Robbie is hitting pause on social media. The Suicide Squad star, more accustomed to red carpets than Instagram updates, announced in a post, giving fans a quick goodbye. Sharing a snap from the release of Promising Young Woman, the Oscar-nominated actress wrote, “Jumping off social media for the time being – check out @luckychapentertainment if you’re interested in what we’re up to, otherwise ciao for now!

Executives at Netflix are reportedly stunned that they couldn’t acquire Saltburn director Emerald Fennell’s Wuthering Heights adaptation.

Given that Warner Bros hasn’t exactly covered itself in glory over the past few years, we can’t quite call this a ‘feel good’ story, but we feel comfortable dubbing it a ‘victory for cinema’.

In case you haven’t been following this one, it concerns the studio destination for director Emerald Fennell’s next project: a star-filled updating of Emily Brontë’s brooding gothic tragedy, Wuthering Heights.

Fennell is a filmmaker in demand following her Oscar-winning screenplay for 2021’s Promising Young Woman and then the immense pop culture splash made by last year’s Saltburn. When it became clear that she’d next be coating a literary classic (Wuthering Heights) with her own unique brand of provocative pop-glitz, interest in the project heightened further. Then, when Margot Robbie and...

As you may or may not be aware, a rumor that pop singer Dua Lipa has signed on to play Zatanna Zatara in the Dcu has been doing the rounds online over the past couple of days and has picked up some steam.

The Grammy Award-winner - who does also have a few acting credits to her name - seems to be a fan-favorite pick to play the DC Comics illusionist, and the rumor claimed that she had signed a 10-year contract with DC Studios.

James Gunn was asked about the rumor on Threads, and, as you might expect, there's no truth to it at all.

James Gunn debunks the Dua Lipa 10 year deal with DC Studios.

“Until this moment it was neither of those things but as of now it’s debunked as well. “10 year contract”? Do they think this is the 1930’s? I’m a Dua Lipa fan,...

It’s all about the theatrical experience. Warner Bros. has secured the rights to Academy Award winner Emerald Fennell’s upcoming film adaptation of “Wuthering Heights” with Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi, Deadline reports. The studio beat out Netflix in a competitive situation by committing to a global theatrical release for the film, which the streamer was unwilling to do.

Fennell, who won the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay in 2021 for “Promising Young Woman,” is writing, directing, and producing the adaptation of Emily Brontë’s timeless 1847 novel. Robbie will star and produce through her company LuckyChap, along with Tom Ackerley and Josey McNamara. LuckyChap also produced Fennell’s “Promising Young Woman” and “Saltburn,” and Fennell appeared in “Barbie” alongside Robbie as Barbie’s friend Midge. It’s also a reunion with Fennell’s “Saltburn” star Elordi. The film is financed by MRC, who brought the package to market.

After making history together with “Barbie,” Margot Robbie and Warner Bros. are at it again. The LuckyChap producer and star is set to lead frequent collaborator Emerald Fennell’s adaptation of “Wuthering Heights,” which is now officially a Warner Bros. Motion Pictures Group title. IndieWire can confirm that the studio won MRC’s highly-anticipated feature after what we’re told was “a fierce bidding war.”

As previously announced, MRC is the studio financing the film, with Robbie’s LuckyChap producing. Fennell wrote and will direct and produce the feature-film adaptation based on the Emily Brontë novel. Robbie leads the feature as Cathy, who becomes intoxicated with the brooding Heathcliff. Fennell’s “Saltburn” star Jacob Elordi is playing the iconic Heathcliff.

The film is now in pre-production, with UK shoot set for 2025. Writer/director Fennell already teased the project with an Instagram post featuring the title and the tagline “Be with me always.

Warner Bros. Motion Pictures Group has won the feature film adaptation package of Saltburn filmmaker’s Emerald Fennell take on Wuthering Heights.

Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi are attached to star in the feature project, which hails from MRC and generated intense interest from streamers and studios and a bidding war. Warners won out partially due to its commitment to launching Heights theatrically worldwide.

“We are thrilled to partner with MRC, Emerald Fennell, and LuckyChap for this feature film adaptation of Wuthering Heights,” said Warner Bros. Motion Picture Group’s Michael De Luca and Pam Abdy in a statement. “From the moment we were introduced to Emerald’s vision for the film, and with an incredible cast led by Margot and Jacob, we were instantly committed to forging a partnership with this team to ensure the movie was brought to theaters around the world.”

Warner Bros. Motion Pictures Group has landed MRC’s feature film adaptation of “Wuthering Heights” from director Emerald Fennell. Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi are set to star in the project, which sparked a fierce bidding war.

MRC is the studio financing the film, LuckyChap is producing and Fennell wrote and will direct and produce the feature film adaptation based on the Emily Brontë novel. Warner Bros. Pictures will distribute “Wuthering Heights” in theaters globally.

“Wuthering Heights” marks the second collaboration between MRC, LuckyChap and Fennell after the breakout hit “Saltburn,” and the third collaboration with LuckyChap and Fennell (“Promising Young Woman”).

“We are thrilled to partner with MRC, Emerald Fennell, and LuckyChap for this feature film adaptation of ‘Wuthering Heights,'” Warner Bros. Motion Picture Group’s Michael De Luca and Pam Abdy said in a joint statement. “From the moment we were introduced to Emerald’s vision for the film,...

Warner Bros. Pictures will release Emerald Fennell’s next film “Wuthering Heights,” landing the adaptation after a bidding war that included Netflix. Ultimately Warner Bros.’ theatrical commitment won out, and the studio will distribute the MRC film that has Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi set to star for writer/director Fennell.

The Oscar-winning “Promising Young Woman” filmmaker is coming off the release of last year’s “Saltburn,” which starred Elordi and was released in theaters by Amazon MGM Studios.

Robbie’s Lucky Chap is producing and MRC is financing “Wuthering Heights,” which is an adaptation of the 1847 Emily Brontë novel that follows two families living on the moors.

“From the moment we were introduced to Emerald’s vision for the film, and with an incredible cast led by Margot and Jacob, we were instantly committed to forging a partnership with this team to ensure the movie was brought to theaters around the world,...

Exclusive: Score one for the theatrical film experience. After a fierce bidding war, Warner Bros Motion Pictures Group has won MRC’s feature adaptation of Wuthering Heights from Oscar winner Emerald Fennell and starring Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi. LuckyChap is producing, and Fennell wrote the script and will direct and produce the adaptation based on the Emily Brontë novel.

This was a hotly contested property, and its likely landing place might have been Netflix or Amazon, where Fennell’s last film Saltburn became one of its biggest ever streaming titles. The bids were dizzyingly high, but the problem was that Fennell and Robbie were determined to see this one go the theatrical route with P&a spend. In the continuing push and pull between theatrical, streaming and the will of artists, Netflix had the highest bid with a commitment rumored to be in the $150 million range, but the streamer...

Hulu has given out a pilot order to Nick Paley’s comedy “Phony” with Connie Britton now set for a lead role, Variety has learned.

The pilot is described as a coming-of-age mystery. The official logline states that it follows “a teenager who wakes up in the hospital after a car accident to discover his mom (Britton) — his only parent and his best friend — appears to have been replaced by an impostor.”

Seven years ago, a young filmmaker named Malcolm Washington made the regional festival rounds with his debut short film, “Benny Got Shot,” and won the filmmaker-to-watch award at the Atlanta Film Festival among other honors. This year, Washington has made his feature film debut with “The Piano Lesson,” an August Wilson adaptation with an all-star cast and an awards-friendly release date from Netflix. Malcolm Washington has screened “The Piano Lesson” at several top film festivals this fall – including the Telluride Film Festival and the Toronto International Film Festival – and will be honored with the Breakthrough Director award at this year’s Montclair Film Festival.

For young directors just starting – even those without Oscar-winning dads like Denzel Washington – that path is the dream scenario, one made possible by events like the one happening now in Montclair, New Jersey. Just ask Hannah Sperling, the 20-year-old director of the short film “Meek,” which...

Ray Nicholson, the son of the legendary actor Jack Nicholson, recently shared insights about his connection with his father while promoting his latest horror film, Smile 2.

During the movie’s premiere on Monday, October 14, Ray, 32, spoke with Deadline, calling his father, Jack Nicholson, 87, both his “inspiration” and “hero.”

Highlighting His Differences From His Father

While discussing his father’s impact on him, Ray highlighted their differences. “We’re very different people,” Ray explained. “I was born in 1992, he was born in 1937. The things that affect me don’t necessarily affect him. Obviously, I love him. He’s my inspiration.”

Ray further added that having regular dinners with his father was an essential part of his upbringing: “I ate dinner with him every night. I studied it, that’s how I learned to be a human being. So of course we’re gonna be kind of similar.”

In Parker Finn's new horror film "Smile 2," Naomi Scott plays Skye Riley, a pop star poised to launch a world tour and in the midst of stressful rehearsals and press events. A lot is riding on the tour, as Skye only recently left rehab after a bout of intense cocaine addiction and alcoholism. She is also still traumatized from a recent drugged-up car accident, one that left her with a pain in her back, a scar on her belly, and a dead boyfriend. During this whirlwind of pain, guilt, and public activity, Skye accumulates a parasitic demon, one that appears to her as people she knows ... and they're always smiling. 

The "Smile" demon has a peculiar modus operandi. It lives inside its host, driving them crazy and feeding off their negativity and trauma. After about a week, the demon forces...

We’ve seen this smile before … sort of.

While on the red carpet for the forthcoming Smile 2, the follow-up to the Sosie Bacon-led horror film about a grinning harbinger of death, star Ray Nicholson was asked about his approach to the genre and how fans have likened the smile on his character’s poster to that of his father Jack Nicholson’s deranged smirk for the seminal Stanley Kubrick film The Shining.

“We’re very different people,” the actor told Deadline at the premiere. “I was born in 1992, he was born in 1937. The things that affect me don’t necessarily affect him. Obviously, I love him.

It was Martin Scorsese’s iconic The Wolf of Wall Street that gave Margot Robbie the recognition she deserved, and since then, the Australian actress has only been attracting major roles. Little did she know that starting a life in Hollywood would lead her to settle down and start a family as well.

In 2013, while the Birds of Prey actress basked in success following her big break, it was also the same year she met her eventual husband, Tom Ackerley, on the set of Suite Française, a World War II drama. Their lives would change forever a year later.

Since the academy expanded the Best Picture category at the Oscars in 2010, Best Original Screenplay has gone to writers of a wide-range of genres: dramas; comedies (“Midnight in Paris”); biopics; true-life stories (“Spotlight”); memoirs (“Belfast”); period pictures (“Django Unchained”); war movies (“The Hurt Locker”); sci-fi (“Her”), thrillers horror (“Get Out”) and fantasies (“Everything Everywhere All at Once”) . (Scroll down for the most up-to-date 2025 Oscar predictions for Best Original Screenplay.)

Of this year’s top 10 contenders for Best Original Screenplay, nine were written, at least in part, by the directors. The exception is “Challengers,” which Justin Kuritzkes wrote for director Luca Guadagnino. He also adapted the William S. Burroughs novel “Queer” for this busy helmer and he could well contend over in Best Adapted Screenplay for that.

“Challengers” is, at its heart, a romance. Love, albeit short-lived, is also the subject of the frontrunner in this race, Sean Baker‘s “Anora.

Back in 2018, while presenting Best Director alongside Ron Howard at the Golden Globe Awards, Natalie Portman created a meme: “And here are the all-male nominees,” Portman said, pointedly underlining the omission of presumed contenders like Greta Gerwig for “Lady Bird” and Patty Jenkins for “Wonder Woman.”

Speaking a month after the ceremony, Portman said she wanted to bring attention to the disparity in the directors’ field without throwing the male nominees under the bus. “It’s not their fault, and they all made great work. You don’t want to not recognize them,” she said to BuzzFeed. “It’s just, why aren’t we recognizing the people who aren’t part of this exclusive club?”

But, Portman added, her goal was to make clear the obvious. “We have to make it weird for people to walk in a room where everyone’s not in the room,” she said. “If you...

Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi have joined the cast of Emerald Fennell’s upcoming ‘Wuthering Heights’ adaptation.

The pair are set to play Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff.

‘Saltburn’ filmmaker, Fennell will pen the project as well as taking the helm and producing. Based on the classic romance novel by Emily Brontë, plot details for Fennell’s version are being kept locked up. The original version tells the story of the turbulent relationship between Heathcliff and Catherine.

Robbie, who recently played a leading role in the highly successful movie ‘Barbie’, has served as a producer for both of Fennell’s earlier films. Elordi gained recognition for his role in ‘Saltburn’, which achieved great success on Amazon towards the end of 2023.

Emerald Fennell has cast her first film since Saltburn, as she takes on adaptation of Wuthering Heights. More here.

Despite being one of the greatest novels written in the English language (apart from The Da Vinci Code), it’s probably fair to say that we’ve never had a definitive screen version of Wuthering Heights. Sure, you might well have a favourite Heathcliff, whether that’s Timothy Dalton, Tom Hardy or otherwise, but given just how iconic the novel is, we’ve yet to see a version that fully does it justice.

Enter Emerald Fennell then. The director behind Promising Young Woman and Saltburn is tackling Emily Brontë’s seminal gothic romance, or as the immortal British sitcom, Peep Show once called it, ‘not a love story but a clucking cluck story’.

Or words similar to that effect, anyway.

We’re pretty convinced that Fennell’s version will contain plenty of erm,...

Renowned filmmaker Emerald Fennell will direct a new adaptation of Emily Brontë’s famous 1847 novel “Wuthering Heights.” Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi are set to star as Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, the passionate yet destructive lovers at the center of the Gothic romance. Production is scheduled for 2025 in the United Kingdom.

Fennell revealed the project last July on social media and secured Robbie and Elordi for the lead roles. Robbie previously worked with Fennell on the hit films “Promising Young Woman” and “Saltburn,” earning her an Oscar for the former. Elordi also appeared in Fennell’s “Saltburn.” LuckyChap Entertainment, Robbie’s production company, will help produce the adaptation.

“Wuthering Heights” was highly influential but difficult to bring to screen due to its complexity. Previous adaptations like those by William Wyler and Andrea Arnold received praise but balancing the novel’s darkness and emotion proved challenging. Fennell’s take is highly anticipated,...

The Australian stars will head up a new adaptation from the Promising Young Woman and Saltburn film-maker

Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi are set to lead a new adaptation of Wuthering Heights from Emerald Fennell.

The Oscar winner, known for Promising Young Woman and last year’s Saltburn, had teased the project on social media but Deadline is now reporting the two actors attached to the project.

After making men confront their past behavior with Promising Young Woman and giving Barry Keoghan a chance to hang out with his wang out in Saltburn, Emerald Fennell is tapping Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi to lead her upcoming adaptation of Emily Brontë’s classic novel Wuthering Heights. In addition to starring in the romance film, Robbie’s LuckyChap is producing alongside MRC. LuckyChap has a history of collaborating with Emerald Fennell. They teamed up for Fennell’s unsettling empowerment thriller Promising Young Woman and her high society orgy of manipulation and murder, Saltburn.

Margot Robbie will play Catherine Earnshaw, and Jacob Elordi will play Heathcliff in Wuthering Heights. Production is ramping up for a 2025 UK shoot. Brontë’s world-famous novel is considered by many to be one of the most outstanding examples of literature on the planet. Brontë’s story follows two families, the Earnshaws and the Lintons, and...

In mouth-watering casting news, MRC said on Monday that Margot Robbie will star as Catherine Earnshaw opposite fellow Australian Jacob Elordi as Heathcliff in Emerald Fennell’s upcoming adaptation of Wuthering Heights. The film will shoot in the UK.

Robbie’s LuckyChap will produce the adaptation of Emily Brontë’s mid-19th century gothic tale of obsession and desire which has fascinated film and television producers for nearly a century.

Fennell will write, direct and produce Wuthering Heights, which MRC said on Monday is in pre-production ahead of a UK shoot in 2025. MRC is financing the production.

The upcoming feature is heavy on reunion.

Emerald Fennell has found her Cathy and Heathcliff. The “Saltburn” and “Promising Young Woman” director had set up an adaptation of Emily Brontë’s “Wuthering Heights” at MRC, and now it’s full speed into the moors as Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi have joined the project in the lead roles of the doomed lovers.

Elordi is reuniting with Fennell after starring in her nuclear reactor of a social media buzz generator “Saltburn” in 2023, with Robbie’s LuckyChap producing for MRC. LuckyChap produced both “Saltburn” and Fennell’s Oscar-winning debut “Promising Young Woman.”

The film is now in pre-production, gearing up for a UK shoot in 2025. Fennell had already teased the project in a cryptic way, with an Instagram post featuring the title and the tagline “Be with me always. Take any form. Drive me mad.”

Zoë Kravitz’s directorial debut joins a microgenre of films, from Promising Young Woman to Don’t Worry Darling, that try – and mostly fail – to capture a difficult moment

This article contains spoilers

Blink Twice, Zoë Kravitz’s buzzy directorial debut, opens with lush, confident seduction. The starry-eyed Frida (Naomi Ackie), a cash-strapped cater-waiter who yearningly scrolls Instagram in her dingy bathroom, catches the eye of handsome tech entrepreneur Slater King at a ritzy gala; he summarily whisks her and her down-with-it best friend Jess (Alia Shawkat) to his private tropical island along with a private jet’s worth of hangers-on. The ostensible goal of the trip is to party – drink all day, lounge by the pool, soak up the sun, suck the marrow out of life. You cannot trust a billionaire, but why not enjoy the spoils?

Kravitz, who co-wrote the film with Et Feigenbaum, similarly relishes in the sensory...
