I’m going to confess to being a pretty big fan of Karate Kid: Legends, although my gut tells me I’m going to be in the minority. This oddball franchise reboot unites a 40-year-old movie with a hugely successful reboot from 15 years ago (!!!), and does it with a, let’s be honest, cut-and-paste Karate Kid story that almost anybody could write if they put in minimal effort.

Not only was he at Cannes with two movies, Kelly Reichardt’s The Mastermind, and The History of Sound alongside Paul Mescal, but he’s continued to add more upcoming projects. Deadline reports O’Connor will star in Jack of Spades, Joel Coen’s next film.

Julia Ducournau won the Palme d’Or at Cannes with her last film, Titane, a body horror as equally visceral as her breakout, Raw. Last night, Ducournau was back and competing for the award again with her latest, Alpha, and NEON has dropped a new teaser for the film, and fans of the French filmmaker will not be disappointed. Alpha stars Tahar Rahim, Golshifteh Farahani, Mélissa Boros, Emma Mackey, Finnegan Oldfield and Louai El Amrousy.

The last we heard of Paul Greengrass’ peasant revolt film, The Rage, it was to star Matthew McConaughey. But things have changed over the last couple of months, and now at Cannes we’re learning that he has dropped out, and Andrew Garfield could step in to replace him. Deadline reports Garfield is in talks to star in The Rage, with Focus Features eyeing domestic distribution on the historical drama, reportedly for a hefty $11M sum.
