Theater owners have been treated to their first glimpse of Amazon MGM Studios’ year-end holiday romp Red One, starring Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans. While the studio didn’t give an official presentation at CinemaCon this week, it used the annual convention to show off 10 minutes of the comedy inside a spacious suite at Caesars Palace.
Those who saw the footage were asked to keep plot details under tight wraps, although its known that J.K. Simmons plays Santa and Bonnie Hunt plays Mrs. Claus.
Red One, from Dwayne Johnson and his Seven Bucks Productions, is set to hit theaters worldwide Nov. 15, 2024, in order to take full advantage of the long year-end holiday corridor (several cinema operators told The Hollywood Reporter the footage looks promising). The holiday action comedy is based on an original story from Hiram Garcia, president of production at Seven Bucks Productions. Jake Kasdan directed from a script by Chris Morgan.

Universal Studios intended to build a cinematic universe with reboots of their classic Monster properties: the Dark Universe. A series of connected creature features, starting with a new version of The Mummy (watch it Here), a big budget adventure film led by Tom Cruise. It sounds like a success story in the making, but something went wrong on the way to the screen. The Mummy was a financial failure, poorly received by critics and movie-goers alike. The Dark Universe was dead on arrival. So let’s look back at this bungled attempt at creating a cinematic universe and find out What the F*ck Happened to The Mummy.
The Mummy franchise started in 1932 with a film that starred the legendary Boris Karloff. He played Imhotep, an Ancient Egyptian high priest who was buried alive for attempting to resurrect the love of his life. Returned to life thousands of years later,...

Red One: Chris Evans and Dwayne Johnson’s holiday action comedy to bring cheer to theaters next year
Next year’s holiday season is already looking merry and bright at the box office as Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans’ holiday action comedy, Red One, plans on riding a sleigh into cinemas. The Amazon MGM and Seven Bucks Christmas film is still spreading holiday cheer on Prime Video, but the project’s global theatrical debut happens on November 15, 2024.
Red One’s move to theaters is a strategy to take advantage of the holiday box office rush. Families love to bundle up the family for a trip to cinemas, and that Thanksgiving window is almost as tasty as a lovingly cooked butterball turkey. Other films will premiere in theaters around the holidays, but so far, Robert De Niro’s mobster film Alto Knights and Lionsgate and Kingdom Story’s The Best Christmas Pageant Ever occupy the holiday stretch.
In addition to Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans, Red One also stars a shredded J.K. Simmons,...

Exclusive, Updated: The latter half of the 2024 theatrical release schedule just got a shot of testosterone as Amazon MGM Studios and Seven Bucks’ epic Christmas action comedy Red One just set an exclusive global theatrical release for Nov. 15, 2024.
Similar to other committed Amazon MGM theatrical titles of late, i.e. Air and Saltburn, Red One will have a theatrical window before streaming on its ultimate home, which is Prime Video.
By releasing Red One theatrically on November 15, Amazon MGM Studios is looking to take advantage of the traditionally lucrative holiday corridor before Thanksgiving. Rival wide releases on Nov. 15 include Warner Bros. Robert De Niro mobster movie, Alto Knights and Lionsgate and Kingdom Story’s The Best Christmas Pageant Ever. I hear that the movie has tested twice and scores were through the roof. This was in the last week, we understand. The original testing of the movie over the summer...

Do you smell what Benny Safdie is cooking? It’s a collaboration with Dwayne Johnson for the A24 film The Smashing Machine. Johnson will play legendary Mma fighter Mark Kerr from the no-holds-barred era of UFC in the new project. A24 is thrilled to reteam with Safdie after the filmmaker’s 2019 cinematic stress test Uncut Gems, starring Adam Sandler as a crooked New York City jeweler in over his head.
In addition to his directorial duties, Safdie is co-writing the script, which focuses on Kerr’s struggle with addiction, victory, love, and friendship in the year 2000. Likely to veer into more severe territory, The Smashing Machine gives Johnson a rare opportunity to flex his drama muscles for cameras. While some could be confused about what that looks like, Safdie is known for bringing the best out of his film stars.
Kerr is an American former wrestler and mixed martial artist.

This episode of Revisited was Written by Cody Hamman, Narrated by Travis Hopson, Edited by Juan Jimenez, Produced by Adam Walton and Chris Bumbray, and Executive Produced by Berge Garabedian.
Over-the-top action sequences. Bone-crunching fights between titans of the action genre. A popular horror director getting his chance to make a massive-budget blockbuster. Fast & Furious 7 (watch it Here) brings all of those elements to the table. But it’s primarily remembered for being a production that was disrupted by tragedy. And we’re going to look into how it all played out in this episode of Revisited.
Universal Pictures doesn’t have a lot of major blockbuster franchises. In 2012, Jurassic Park had been dormant for a decade and the Bourne Identity movies had lost Jason Bourne. So they really only had Fast and Furious. It makes sense that while they were sending the sixth movie out into the world,...

Dark Universe, Universal’s scrapped attempt to make a series of reboots of their classic monster properties that would crossover with each other, was overseen by Alex Kurtzman and Chris Morgan – but long before Kurtzman and Morgan got involved, Universal had offered Guillermo del Toro the chance to take over their monster universe. Del Toro turned down the opportunity, which is a choice he regretted. But now his longtime producing partner J. Miles Dale has said that he is building his own monster universe with his original projects. Del Toro’s Best Picture winner The Shape of Water was a take on Creature from the Black Lagoon, and he’s now developing a live-action of adaptation of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein.
Last we heard, it was rumored that Mia Goth (Pearl), Oscar Isaac (Moon Knight), and Andrew Garfield were being considered for lead roles in Frankenstein. Dale didn’t confirm or deny their involvement,...

Insane Clown Posse’s Violent J is the subject of the latest episode of the online reality show about unconventional couples, Love Don’t Judge. The reason he’s on the show? His relationship with his new girlfriend: Sarah Russi, an OnlyFans content creator who’s 21 years his junior.
The episode explains how Violent J — who’s 51 years old — met Russi online as a fan, leading to the two to begin their controversial love affair. “I was on Instagram, flipping through — every time I’d see a hottie, I’d hit follow,” he explained in the episode. “She’s, like, one of my top two favorite hotties.” Eventually, Violent J slid in Russi’s DMs, and one thing led to another. “I just put my claim on it,” he said. “I was like, ‘Ah, this is my new real estate, I’m moving the fuck in.’”

The second teaser trailer for Netflix’s Bird Box spinoff, Bird Box Barcelona, reveals much more of the terror the citizens of Barcelona are feeling as the creatures launch their attack.

Bird Box starring Oscar winner Sandra Bullock premiered in December 2018, and the spinoff will debut on Netflix on July 14, 2023. Goya award winner Mario Casas (No matarás) leads the cast of the spinoff, starring Georgina Campbell, Alejandra Howard, Naila Schuberth, Diego Calva, and Patrick Criado.

Five years after the original "Bird Box" became an absolute sensation on Netflix, we're finally getting a follow-up. While it's not a proper sequel, it is more of a spin-off taking place elsewhere in the world. In this case, Spain, which is why the forthcoming movie is aptly titled "Bird Box Barcelona." That also has a nice alliterative ring to it. But that's about the only thing about this movie that looks nice, as it seems absolutely chaotic and tense.
This appears to be going with a very similar conceit as the original film, with survivors trying to avoid eye contact with the mysterious beings at the center of this disaster at all costs. It's a new group of people in an entirely new location. What will those new elements bring to the table? Let's have a look-see.

Whatever you do… don’t open your eyes. A brand new international spinoff movie set in the world of 2018 hit Bird Box, Bird Box Barcelona will premiere on July 14.
Entertainment Weekly has debuted a brand new teaser trailer this morning, while also confirming that Bird Box Barcelona is not a prequel. Rather, the events of the film are unfolding at the very same time as the original Bird Box movie… in a very different part of the world.
Producer Dylan Clark tells EW, “The events that we see Malorie/Sandra Bullock endure in the original Bird Box are happening at the same time that Sebastian/Mario Casas is going through his journey. Being in Barcelona gave us a chance to see how surviving this intense threat in an iconic city poses different challenges.”

This first spinoff movie will be a Spanish-language thriller set in Barcelona.

Dwayne Johnson is set to reprise his role as Luke Hobbs in a ‘Fast and Furious’ stand-alone project.
Plot details are currently under wraps, insiders familiar with the deal said the new movie will bridge between the events of the just-released ‘Fast X’ and the upcoming “Fast X: Part II,” which is expected in 2025.
Johnson announced Hobbs’ return with a video posted to social media with the caption: “Your reactions around the world to Hobbs’ return in ‘Fast X’ have blown us away. The next ‘Fast & Furious’ film you’ll see the legendary lawman in will be the Hobbs movie that will serve as a fresh, new chapter & set up for ‘Fast X: Part II.’”

Grab your funderwear… because Luke Hobbs, and the man who plays him (that would be Dwayne Johnson in case you were unaware) is back back back for a new Fast & Furious spin-off movie.
The news is not all that surprising, since — spoiler alert in case you haven't watched Fast X – the lawman returned for a post-credits sting scene, drawn into a trap by Dante Reyes (Jason Momoa) as revenge for Hobbs' part in offing Dante's drug kingpin father in Fast Five.
Yet it would appear that the beef between Vin Diesel over on-set behaviour has well and truly been thrown on a barbecue and served with a cold Corona, despite Johnson publicly saying he'd never return to the franchise in 2021.
Johnson confirmed the news in a twitter video you can see below:

According to Variety, the film will bridge the gap between the latest movie, Fast X, and the upcoming Fast X: Part II. Johnson just signaled his return to the franchise by appearing in the closing credits of Fast X.

The balance of power in the "Fast & Furious" universe is about to change.
Mere weeks after audiences experienced the surprise of a lifetime in the post-credits scene for "Fast X," which (spoiler alert!) revealed that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson would be returning hat in hand to the only guaranteed money-making franchise in his holster after flaming out spectacularly with "Black Adam" reprising his fan-favorite role as Luke Hobbs, there's now official confirmation that his grand reappearance with the #FastFambly will take the form of another spin-off movie, because that last one -- memorably titled "Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw" -- went over so well. But hey, as the resident "Fast" fanatic here at /Film, I am completely here for more soap opera-like antics on both sides of the camera with this series.

After teasing his return to the Fast and Furious franchise in Fast X, Dwayne Johnson is officially returning to the mean streets for an untitled Fast project. Universal and Johnson announced the megastar’s return on Thursday, saying Chris Morgan will write the script for Johnson’s untitled Fast film. Johnson’s return to the Fast franchise will turn heads and garner social media ribbing after the actor previously said he’s through contributing to the money-printing action series.
If Morgan’s name looks familiar, he wrote six of the core Fast and Furious films and the spinoff Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, starring Johnson and Jason Statham. In addition to reprising the role of Hobbs, Johnson will also produce the untitled Fast project through his Seven Bucks Productions studio alongside Dany Garcia and Hiram Garcia.

Just when Dwayne Johnson thought he was out of the family, they pulled him back in.
The action superstar has closed a deal to return to the “Fast & Furious” franchise in a new film from screenwriter Chris Morgan, IndieWire has confirmed. Unlike Johnson’s 2019 spinoff “Hobbs and Shaw,” the untitled film will take place within the main storyline of the franchise. However, it will not be an official numbered “Fast & Furious” film. The project has been described as a story that bridges the events of “Fast X” and the upcoming “Fast X: Part II,” which is expected to be the final film in the series.
The news marks a major reversal for Johnson, who had publicly dismissed the idea of returning to the franchise. After playing Luke Hobbs in five “Fast & Furious” movies beginning with 2011’s “Fast Five” and ending with “Hobbs & Shaw,” Johnson famously departed...

Johnson will star in an untitled Fast project, Universal and Johnson announced Thursday. Fast mainstay Chris Morgan penned the script. The return is a major reversal for the star, who had insisted, repeatedly, that he was done with the action franchise after clashing with Fast headliner Vin Diesel.
The new project also marks a return for Morgan, who sat out F9 and Fast X but penned six of the main franchise movies as well as the 2019 spinoff, Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, which starred Johnson and Jason Statham.

Zachary Levi returns for a sequel to DC’s 2019 superhero hit, alongside returning director David F. Sandberg. As such, the follow-up doesn’t quite hit the heights of the first film, but there’s a decent amount of fun to be had along the way.
The plot picks up two years after the events of the previous film, with Billy Batson (Asher Angel / Levi) and his Shazam Family of teens-who-turn-into-adult-superheroes established as a team of costumed crimefighters in their city, even if they occasionally screw up, earning them the label “the Philadelphia Fiascos”.

This piece contains spoilers for “Fast X.”
For fans of the “Fast & Furious” movies, the phrase “Justice for Han” has been a rallying cry since 2017’s “The Fate of the Furious.” That’s when “Furious 7” villain Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham) – the man who killed Han Leu (Sung Kang) in the franchise’s convoluted mythology – became an unofficial part of the core family, a decision that seemed wildly out of step with the ethos of Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) and his crew.
Shaw later took a lead role in the “Fast and Furious” spinoff film “Hobbs & Shaw,” which was written by Chris Morgan, the man who wrote every “Fast” film from “The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift” through “Hobbs & Shaw.”
“I love ‘justice for Han,’” Morgan said in 2019 to Entertainment Weekly. “Sung Kang is a great friend, and Han is a character that I adore. I...

You know, when you think about it, franchises can be a lot like family. The bigger they are, the more likely they are to go off the rails entirely. Of course, there's no more quintessential example of a big-screen family that fits both of these descriptions than Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) and his Fast Fambly of street racers-turned-superspies. By now, everyone knows that the trajectory of the "Fast & Furious" movies is unlike any other, taking viewers from the seedy streets of Los Angeles' local racing scene to world-ending shenanigans that somehow can only be foiled by one particular team of -- let's call them what they are, folks -- gearhead superheroes.
This major change in the franchise's scale and ambition didn't just happen overnight, however, in the same way that Rome wasn't built in a day. Every film laid its own particular building blocks that would eventually add up...

In today's news of slightly unnecessary projects, Netflix is reviving its hit original film "Bird Box" with a sequel-extension film called "Bird Box Barcelona." You read that right, we're getting another "Bird Box" film, but seemingly one that is simply adjacent to, and not a continuation of, the events of the original. Interesting.
Netflix debuted a one-minute teaser trailer for the new film — which was announced back in March 2021 — and it gives us a glimpse into a similar event as the 2018 film, only in Europe this time. There is chaos in major cities, and folks turn to obscuring their sight in the outside world in order to obtain shelter. Again, it's very much a global repositioning of the events of the first film, however, it does seem like this new story will have some of its own twists and turns.

Netflix is diving back into the post-apocalyptic world of 2018’s Bird Box with the spinoff Bird Box Barcelona.

In addition, Lola Dueñas, Gonzalo De Castro, Michelle Jenner, and Leonardo Sbaraglia also star.
Álex Pastor and David Pastor wrote the screenplay and co-directed. The post-apocalyptic thriller was produced by Dylan Clark, Chris Morgan, Núria Valls, Adrián Guerra, Josh Malerman and Ryan Lewis. Ainsley Davies and Brian Williams served as executive producers.

Back at the end of 2018, Netflix had a huge hit with their apocalyptic horror thriller Bird Box, based on a novel by Josh Malerman (pick up a copy Here). While Malerman has written a Bird Box sequel called Malorie (buy that one Here), Netflix has been focusing on the idea of producing Bird Box spin-offs that will be set in various locations around the globe. First up is a spin-off that’s set in Spain and was written and directed by Alex and David Pastor. While we’ve previously heard that this spin-off was going by the title A Ciegas, which happens to have been the Spanish title used for the first Bird Box, Netflix has now announced that the film is officially titled Bird Box Barcelona – and it will be available to watch on the streaming service as of July 14th!

‘Top Gun Maverick’ star, Glen Powell, has entered into negotiations to join Daisy Edgar-Jones in the sequel to the 1996 film ‘Twister.’
Currently titled ‘Twisters,’ the new story is not a sequel, nor is it expected to bring back old characters. The studio is describing it as a “new chapter.”
