Netflix Says It Will Never Release Kevin Spacey’s ‘Gore’ — Citing Tax Write-Off — World of Reel

4 days ago | worldofreel.com | Jordan Ruimy

Last month, I was told by an indie distributing source that Netflix was still holding tight to “Gore,” the long-buried biopic starring Kevin Spacey as Gore Vidal, with zero interest in selling it off. Directed by Michael Hoffman (“The Last Station”), the film was in post-production back in 2017 when Netflix pulled the plug, right after the first wave of sexual misconduct allegations against Spacey broke. The streamer quickly distanced itself, shelving the project entirely.
LOL: James Gunn Denies Report He’s Getting ‘Batman 2’ Script This Week — World of Reel

4 days ago | worldofreel.com | Jordan Ruimy

Last week, Puck‘s Matt Belloni claimed that Matt Reeves was finally turning in his long-awaited script for “The Batman Part II” to DC overlord James Gunn on Monday. Well, Monday’s here, and guess what? No script. This morning, Gunn himself hopped on social media to politely (and by politely, we mean passive-aggressively) swat the rumor down, saying the report was “not true.” Translation: The script’s still somewhere in the Batcave.
Latest ‘Weapons' Trailer Drops! — World of Reel

4 days ago | worldofreel.com | Jordan Ruimy

A full two-minute trailer for Zach Cregger’s “Weapons” just landed this morning. And yes, it looks gorgeously horrific. Cinematography and framing are top-tier. We had already reported that “Weapons” tested through the roof, prompting New Line to bump the release up from January 2026 to August 8, 2025. With this teaser now out, buzz has only intensified. The trailer sets up a chilling mystery: Julia Garner plays a schoolteacher whose entire class vanishes — not the whole school, just her students.
‘Splitsville’ Trailer: Tender, Hilarious Divorce Romp is Peak Comedy — World of Reel

4 days ago | worldofreel.com | Jordan Ruimy

Here’s a film that didn’t nearly get enough attention at Cannes but will be worth seeking out when it gets released later this summer. It’s both a tender and riotously funny treat. Michael Angelo Covino’s “Splitsville,” which played out of competition, earned some well-deserved positive ink from critics, including , THR, and IndieWire. Neon has now released the trailer for the film, which will be released on August 22.
Marvel Claims To Have Finally “Cracked” The Story For ‘Blade’ Reboot — World of Reel

4 days ago | worldofreel.com | Jordan Ruimy

The behind-the-scenes chaos surrounding Marvel’s “Blade” reboot has been written about endlessly, and for good reason — few projects in the MCU pipeline have had this many false starts. What we do know: Mahershala Ali is still attached to star, the budget is hovering around $80 million, and yes, it’s still supposed to be R-rated. But beyond that? It’s anyone’s guess.

A few weeks ago, I reported how Lynne Ramsay was developing a vampire film with none other than Ezra Miller, the controversial ‘Flash’ actor who headlined her 2011 psychological thriller “We Need to Talk About Kevin.”“I’m making a vampire movie,” Ramsay said. “It’s with Ezra Miller who was in ‘Kevin.’ He’s the main character. That’s in development.”Miller has now added a crucial detail concerning this project.
Report: Most Film Execs Believe Moviegoing Has Less Than 20 Years Left — World of Reel

5 days ago | worldofreel.com | Jordan Ruimy

There’s a growing sense of fatalism among the people running America’s movie theaters. I just came across a new industry survey that paints a sobering picture: over half of exhibition executives—those directly tied to the moviegoing business—don’t believe the traditional theater model will survive the next two decades. Let that sink in. We’re not talking about critics or streaming evangelists sounding the death knell. This is coming straight from the exhibition side itself.
Bertrand Bonello to Direct ‘Santo Subito' — Shoots This Fall — World of Reel

5 days ago | worldofreel.com | Jordan Ruimy

French director Bertrand Bonello is coming off his critically acclaimed “The Beast,” which was unlike any film he’d made before, mixing period-era romanticism, sci-fi and Lynchian depravity. Here’s IONCINEMA reporting Bonello has three screenplays currently in development, but that his likely next film is the one that already has backing from the Polish Film Institute.
Inside David Lowery's ‘Mother Mary'; A24’s “Bewildering" Mess Might Sit Out 2025 — World of Reel

5 days ago | worldofreel.com | Jordan Ruimy

David Lowery has spent his career straddling two worlds: intimate arthouse passion projects (“A Ghost Story,” “Ain’t Them Bodies A Saint,” “The Green Knight”) and big-budget Disney fare (“Pete’s Dragon,” “Pan and Wendy”). His latest, “Mother Mary,” clearly falls into the first category. Filming for “Mother Mary” kicked off in May 2023 and wrapped as recently as August 2024. Since then? Crickets. No release dates, no marketing, nothing. Word is the movie might not hit theaters until 2026 — if at all.
