• Vulture Marcia Gay Harden answers all the questions about her awesome Oscar win for Pollock on its 20th anniversary
• MNPP Josh O'Connor to make a queer horror film with Francis Lee (God's Own Country, Ammonite)
• Deadline very interesting (if way too complimentary) report on dubbing films into other languages. Daniel Brühl is among the top actors who dub their own performances into multiple languages rather than letting other actors do it and change the performance. It helps that he's fluent in multiple languages of course.
More after the jump including Pose, Regé-Jean Page, Killers of the Moon, a new adaptation of Blindness, and recent showbiz deaths...
• /Film Martin Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon has hired Jack Fisk (aka Mr Sissy Spacek) as its production designer. That's amazing because Fisk always does phenomenal work but has never worked with Scorsese. Leonardo DiCaprio headlines (of course)
• Advocate the trailer for Pose's third and final season is upon us
• Pajiba on Regé-Jean Page not returning for Season 2 for Bridgerton. We're so glad he isn't. So many series have been undone by trying to stay in statis to repeat what's popular rather than actually evolving organically.
• /Film superhero culture somehow hasn't reached the over-saturation mark -- 2020's dearth surely bought the genre a few more years since everyone had a break -- but it must be finally getting there. A new trailer for something called Jupiter's Legacy which looks very self-serious.
•/Film Wolfwalkers, the best animated film of 2020, is getting a brief theatrical release this weekend to celebrate its Oscar nomination.
Theater Will Return
• Deadline This sounds very cool. There's an actor free Off-Broadway show using only light and sound for its storytelling that's based on Jose Saramago's Blindness (such a brilliant novel - you might remember the Julianne Moore film version though that didn't do it justice) opening. The audience is masked and seated spaced apart.
• Playbill you can stream a new Sutton Foster concert at the end of the month but it will cost you $35. She's so wonderful but I wish producers would realize that streaming something at home doesn't really warrant off broadway or deluxe movie theater prices. You're not actually paying to rent theater space nightly or paying the actors for each performance or having the experience of going to an event. You've just taped a concert or are streaming a movie!
