The battle for Warner Bros. Discovery is seeing a new champion enter the ring, with Netflix making some moves to put their own bid in for the studio's properties. According to Reuters, the streaming pioneer engaged with investment bank Moelis & Co. in order to prepare an offer. Ironically, this is the same bank that worked with David Ellison at Skydance to take over Paramount whose first bid to buy Warner Bros. Discovery was rejected. It was the worst weekend at the box office this year, with ticket sales coming in at just $52.4 million. This also makes it the lowest-grossing Halloween weekend in 31 years, excluding theater closures due to COVID in 2020. While new film Regretting You took in a respectable $50 million, Black Phone 2 really has the crown from the weekend having now brought in $104 million globally - another huge win for horror this year. Yorgos Lanthimos' new film Bugonia, starring Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons, is sitting at a small $11.1 million globally after breaking into more theaters.Both Scream 7 and Stranger Things Season 5 released trailers recently. Stranger Things' official trailer showed us a bit more of what to expect from that property and Scream 7, which releases on February 27, 2026, gave us a glance at the returning original cast members of Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, Matthew Lillard, and David Arquette. As we discussed last week, Stranger Things will release in three parts on holiday weekends, four episodes on November 26, three episodes on Christmas Day, and the finale on New Year's Eve.A 'Conjuring' prequel film is in development at Warner Bros. and New Line, with short film director Rodrigue Huart in talks to direct. Franchise veterans Richard Naing and Ian Goldberg, who co-wrote the two prior “Conjuring” films, 2023's “The Nun II” and this September's “The Conjuring: Last Rites,” are on board to pen the screenplay.After landing the rights to turn one of the world's biggest video games into an epic movie, Paramount has now landed two A-list filmmakers to develop it. Sources tell Deadline that Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan and Peter Berg have joined Paramount and Activision to develop and produce a Call of Duty movie, with Paramount distributing a live-action feature film.Hulu has ordered two more seasons of the revived King of the Hill animated series, the 16th and 17th overall and third and fourth seasons as a streaming original.

A weekend where a chainsaw-wielding antihero beat the field says a lot about where audiences are right now. We start with Chainsaw Man's surprise box office win and a sobering stat: October's domestic revenue slid to a 27-year low (excluding the pandemic). Two truths can be real at once: niche, high-intensity fandoms show up in force, and once-reliable awards hopefuls and legacy IP can miss when the pitch is fuzzy. We dig into what connected, what didn't, and why timing, identity, and community matter more than ever.From there, we widen the lens. The Gotham Awards spotlight a broadened indie landscape while studios chase safer bets. Miami Vice is revving up with Michael B. Jordan and (possibly) Austin Butler, tailored for IMAX sheen and ‘80s heat. A Call of Duty film advances under Peter Berg and Taylor Sheridan, signaling tactical action and institutional drama. Not everything made it past the gate: Adam Driver reveals a Soderbergh-led Ben Solo script Lucasfilm loved but Disney passed on—an emblem of franchise caution after a wobbly sequel era.Gaming brought both nostalgia and headlines. Halo: Campaign Evolved is officially remade and headed to PS5 as well as Xbox and PC, a symbolic end to the old console wars. Half-Life 3 murmurs point to a possible short runway between announcement and launch, while Invincible VS adds characters ahead of a closed alpha test. Elden Ring's Switch 2 port slips to 2026 for performance polish, and Marvel Cosmic Invasion locks a December date with Phoenix and Iron Man. Against that momentum, Amazon's layoffs hit its gaming division hard, with New World Aterneum's team leaving a poignant in-world farewell as support winds down.On TV, legacy and reinvention share the stage. Janet Hubert joins Bel-Air's final season in a new role; Only Murders in the Building relocates to London for season six; ABC maps a dense mid-season slate to steady appointment viewing. A one-night Married with Children reunion benefits MS without cameras, balancing exclusivity and purpose. Doctor Who exits Disney Plus distribution as BBC reiterates its commitment. Looking ahead, One Piece sets a March 2026 voyage to Drum Island, King of the Hill secures more seasons, and Southern Bastards heads to pilot with small-town grit and big-stakes crime.If you're here for clarity across film, games, and TV, we've got you.

On season 10, episode 9 of Paid in Puke, we're falling for John Dahl's 1993 neo-noir The Last Seduction, starring Linda Fiorentino, Peter Berg, and Bill Pullman. Fiorentino commands the screen as a femme fatale who is as brilliant and sexy as she is cold, and calculating. She steals the whole pot from a joint drug deal devised with her husband (Pullman), and hides out in small town in upstate NY. There, she passes the time with a naive townie (Berg), who eventually proves himself to be useful in ways other than sex. Dahl directed this film as a black comedy, but the script is also extremely smart and tight, making it a standout of the 90's neo-noir genre.  We have a lot of fun dissecting Bridget's schemes, appreciating her fashion and quick wit, marveling at the range of Bill Pullman, the ahead-of its time race and homophobia commentary (including a non-problematic trans character played by an actual trans woman!) and the surprising connections to Barb and Star Go To Vista Del Mar. On the Lunchtime Poll, we reveal the aliases we would adopt if we were ever to go on the lam.

Dwayne Johnson followed up his debut lead performance in The Scorpion King with The Rundown. Released as Welcome to the Jungle outside America, The Rundown might be his very best movie. Along with Seann William Scott, Rosario Dawson, and a deliciously hammy Christopher Walken, The Rock is firing on all cylinders as both a physical and emotional actor. He can be funny when called to be, but leaves most of the humor to Scott and Walken, and he really shines as a stoic badass.   It's no mistake that Arnold Schwarzenegger makes a cameo at the beginning of this movie, passing by The Rock and telling him to "have fun." It was his world now. As The Scorpion King was The Rock's version of Conan the Barbarian, The Rundown was his version of Commando. Unfortunately, the world had changed since the 1980s, and the public appetite for throwback action-adventure movies was waning.   We were robbed of a world where he made a movie of this quality every year. But we're also robbed of a world where dozens of movies like this get made every year. We had it all, we just didn't know it.   Bonus video: The Rundown should've had a sequel! The Rock and Seann William Scott have excellent chemistry, and their partnership could easily have fit into all kinds of different sequel scenarios. Really, there should have been 10 Rundowns.

The Cinematography Podcast Episode 311: Jacques Jouffret, ASC Netflix's American Primeval plunges viewers into the harsh realities of a gritty, naturalistic Western winter. Cinematographer Jacques Jouffret, ASC, who shot all six episodes, collaborated closely with director Peter Berg to immerse the audience in the era's unforgiving environment. “That was really a lot of hard work. Pete wanted the audience to feel the difficulty of living in that period,” says Jacques. “He wanted to feel the dirt, dust, grime and the ugliness of it and the violence of it. And I tried to get into that spirit. My job was to really make the audience feel that coldness, the chill that you are open to the elements.” Jacques wanted the audience to feel the cold of American Primeval's harsh winter setting, even as the production continued into summer. One of the most significant challenges was maintaining a consistently overcast sky, and there were few interior locations. During the wintertime, it was easy to shoot wider to get the overcast sky, but the weather was constantly changing. Dutch angles worked not only as a stylistic choice, but also to help hide the sky when it wasn't overcast enough. The crew would strategically shoot close, shoot in the shade, or block the sky with silks. Portraying visceral realism is an important element of Jacques and Berg's collaborations. They have worked together before on films such as Novocaine and Mile 22. “That's one thing that I love working with Pete,” he shares. “You're making the audience feel that this is real, you are watching something that is right there and I'm able to suspend that disbelief. And so that's really always the approach, to make it as real as we can. And yet I'm giving it some style to present more of the emotion, more of the mood, the atmosphere, and where I want the audience to be.” To achieve a blend of raw reality and stylistic emotional depth on American Primeval, Jacques adopted a focused visual strategy, inspired by the legendary director Stanley Kubrick. Kubrick would choose just four or five strong visual ideas, and then repeat them over and over for visual impact. For the series, Jacques established his own core visual tenets: Expansive vistas: Super wide shots to take in the vastness of the Western scenery Dynamic Dutch angles: Wide and close dutch camera angles to increase the feeling of discomfort and danger, while still including visuals critical to the story Intimate compression: Lenses with long focal lengths that compress the image, allowing the audience to be with the character in the moment Juxtaposition of extremes: A deliberate contrast between wide, long shots with everything in focus, contrasted with close-ups on the actors with a wide angle lens. This created a visual language emphasizing the harsh environment, and Jacques avoided medium shots.

In this episode recorded live on May 8 at the American Society of Cinematographers Clubhouse in Los Angeles, director Jennifer Arnold speaks with three of the creators behind Netflix's American Primeval: director of photography Jacques Jouffret, ASC, makeup department head Howard Berger and sound designer Wylie Stateman. The limited series follows the battle for control of the American West in 1857 through the eyes of a mother (Betty Gilpin) and son, on the run with the help of a steely mountain man (Taylor Kitsch). “Brutal, dirty and grimy,” Jouffert says, is what director Peter Berg wanted for the 19th century Western, and the three artisans share how they delivered, shooting in changeable weather and light at 10,000 feet, creating authentic indigenous looks and developing a distinct sonic signature for cold wind.

Send us a textRemember Collateral from Michael Mann starring Jamie Foxx and arguably the biggest movie star worldwide, Tom Cruise? We didn't remember a lot from this movie either. What we did remember was that it was more realistic than your average action film of the time, and Jada Pinkett Smith seemed normal. But with these two mega stars, this director, and a supporting cast that is downright diabolical, we have high hopes.Do You Remember Liking This Movie?

"Mark WahlTURD & the Yucky Bunch" concludes, as the singer-turned-actor-turned-business-mogul and his frequent collaborator, director Peter Berg, leave behind the growing unpredictability of theatrical box office for the apparent comfort and safety (and big paydays) of the streaming world. But even there, you're not entirely safe from the perils of a failed franchise starter, as you'll hear when we discuss 2020's Spenser Confidential, the cinematic adaptation of a popular series of detective novels which already enjoyed some filmed success in the TV world in previous years. So why wasn't this later made-for-the-small-screen effort able to hook audiences in the same way? And, perhaps more importantly, does that even matter to Wahlberg, as his career and interests have shifted in new directions? Join us for our first ever look at a streaming-exclusive movie!

The third installment of "Mark WahlTURD & the Yucky Bunch" jumps ahead 15 years to 2018, where Mark Wahlberg, now very much a movie star, is looking to team up with director Peter Berg, his recent favorite collaborator, for a new espionage action thriller. But it's a rocky road to get there, as the movie in question was originally developed as a potential star vehicle for a totally different performer. Why did Mile 22 evolve into something else entirely? How did Wahlberg's "James Silva" go from supporting role to main character? What is a "gauntlet movie," and does Mile 22 fit the definition? And, most importantly, is the movie any good, and did it deserve sequels? We discuss all this, and more! Our Twitter Our Facebook Our Instagram Our YouTube Trev's Letterboxd Chris' Letterboxd

Puntata a cura di Jacopo Bulgarini d'Elci e Francesca Sarah Toich.American Primeval è una miniserie creata da Mark L. Smith, già sceneggiatore di The Revenant, e diretta da Peter Berg, noto per Friday Night Lights e Painkiller. Distribuita su Netflix a inizio 2025, la serie si distingue per il suo approccio crudo e realistico alla rappresentazione della Frontiera americana. Un racconto teso e spietato, in soli 6 episodi, capace di intrecciare la grande Storia con le vicende personali dei suoi protagonisti.Come discutiamo nel podcast, American Primeval è un'opera ambiziosa, ma non esente da difetti. L'attenzione al realismo e all'estetica ruvida a volte sfocia in una narrazione frammentata e poco coesa. Si respira, in genere, un'atmosfera un po' irrisolta. Incerta sulla direzione da prendere. Limiti che non cancellano il valore, e la fascinazione, della serie. Un western cruento, disilluso, non per tutti i gusti.“2 voci, 1 serie”: dialoghi sulle cose che ci piacciono, o ci interessano, nel podcast di Mondoserie.Parte del progetto: https://www.mondoserie.it/  Iscriviti al podcast sulla tua piattaforma preferita o su: https://www.spreaker.com/show/mondoserie-podcast  Collegati a MONDOSERIE sui social:https://www.facebook.com/mondoserie https://www.instagram.com/mondoserie.it/   https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwXpMjWOcPbFwdit0QJNnXQ  https://www.linkedin.com/in/mondoserie/

We present our conclusion to Black History Month with actor focus; this time we celebrate the career of Samuel L. Jackson!  We're looking 3 of his starring vehicles Snakes on a Plane, then The Great White Hype and finally Soul Men, also starring the late, great Bernie Mac!Samuel L. Jackson is one of the most iconic, prolific, and versatile actors in modern cinematic history.

The sleeper must awaken. The filmography must contain a flop. We've arrived at the Planet Arrakis aka the Desert Planet aka DUNE (1984) - David Lynch's attempt at wrangling Frank Herbert's space epic into a single studio blockbuster. Did it work? Not really. Do we have fun talking about it? Hell yeah, we do! John Hodgman joins us to talk about all things “spice” - including the infamous glossary of Dune terms handed out in theaters, and a wild anecdote about Peter Berg reading Dune on an airplane. We talk about Lynch's decision to turn down directing Return of the Jedi, the differences between Lynch's take on Dune and Denis Villeneuve's more critically successful version, and David finally gets the chance to let his Fremen freak flag fly by going FULL NERD.
