Here’s why Oppenheimer is one of the most unique Hollywood movies (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer was as intense as the man behind the bomb. From the get-go, Nolan pulled audiences into the genius and turmoil of J. Robert Oppenheimer, portrayed with haunting luminosity by Cillian Murphy. And true to Nolan’s style, Oppenheimer didn’t just show history—it tangled, teased, and exploded it on screen. This wasn’t just another biopic; it was a staggering plunge into a mind grappling with the ethics of atomic power, with Nolan playing maestro to every jittery, overwhelming moment.

In a way only Nolan can, the film dances the fine line between elegance and grandiosity, blending grandeur with the daunting realities Oppenheimer faced. Sure, some scenes—like the cosmic visuals of whirling stars and molten lava—felt almost too exquisite, yet they conveyed the awe and terror of unlocking the universe’s darkest secrets.

It seems that every week there’s an unexpected but undeniably exciting addition to Josh Safdie’s Marty Supreme cast. This week is no different, as Variety reports this morning that former nanny and current SAG-AFTRA president Fran Drescher will join the cast, playing the mother to Timothée Chalamet’s titular ping pong player.

Australian filmmaker Warwick Thornton is directing an upcoming movie about Pemulwuy, a significant figure in Australian history. The film, titled “First Warrior,” will tell the epic story of Pemulwuy’s leadership battling British colonization in the late 1700s. Sam Worthington and Jason Clarke are attached to star, and producers are looking for an actor to portray Pemulwuy.

Pemulwuy was a leader of the Bidjigal Aboriginal group near modern-day Sydney. For over a decade, he organized resistance against settlers moving onto traditional Indigenous lands. His efforts are regarded as some of the earliest, strongest opposition to colonization in Australia. Yet this pivotal period receives little attention historically.

The film aims to shine a light on Pemulwuy’s remarkable story. Thornton says the script captures “an important story” and he’s honored to be involved. Thornton has won acclaim for movies including “Samson & Delilah” and “Sweet Country.” Aboriginal creatives hold central...

It's hard to believe it's somehow been seven whole years since Kathryn Bigelow's last movie, the incendiary John Boyega led Detroit, hit our screens. But now the action thriller specialist behind The Hurt Locker and Zero Dark Thirty is preparing to make her return to the directorial hotseat with a new pulse raiser for Netflix — and she's bringing together quite the cast for her comeback. Per Deadline's reporting, Bigelow's Zero Dark Thirty star Jason Clarke is the latest to join the director's as-yet-untitled new movie, whose stacked ensemble also includes *deep breath* Idris Elba, Rebecca Ferguson, Jared Harris, Jonah Hauer-King, Greta Lee, Tracy Letts, Moses Ingram, Anthony Ramos, and Gabriel Basso!

Plot details on Bigelow's latest remain, much like its title, firmly under wraps at this stage. However, according to reports, the movie will see Bigelow in familiar political thriller territory with the action unfolding at the White House as a national crisis unfolds.

Leading Australian filmmaker Warwick Thornton has signed on to direct First Warrior, an epic feature about Australian Aboriginal resistance fighter Pemulwuy. Aussie stars Sam Worthington (Avatar, Hacksaw Ridge) and Jason Clarke (Oppenheimer, Zero Dark Thirty) have boarded the project in lead parts, while a casting search is said to be underway for the lead role of Pemulwuy.

A Bidjigal man of the Sydney tribes, Pemulwuy led a 12-year resistance against British settlers moving into his people’s traditional lands as Australia was colonized in the late 1700s.

One of Australia’s most admired directors, Thornton broke through in 2009 when his directorial debut, Samson & Delilah won the Cannes Film Festival’s Camera d’Or prize. His 2017 film Sweet Country took home Venice’s Special Jury Prize and his most recent work, The New Boy, starring Cate Blanchett, premiered at Cannes last year.

First Warrior is supported by the Bidjigal, Dharawal and...

Exclusive: Kathryn Bigelow looks to have found a familiar face to round out the ensemble to her all-star cast as Jason Clarke, who starred in Bigelow’s Zero Dark Thirty, is set to join her next film at Netflix. The untitled thriller also stars Idris Elba, Rebecca Ferguson, Jared Harris, Greta Lee, Tracy Letts, Moses Ingram, Anthony Ramos and Gabriel Basso. Bigelow will direct.

Netflix had no comment on the casting.

The film’s title and plot remain under wraps, though sources have told Deadline that it will be set at the White House as a national crisis unfolds. The project marks Bigelow’s first feature since the 2017 thriller Detroit, an awards contender produced and distributed by Annapurna Pictures.

Bigelow and Clarke first worked together on the thriller Zero Dark Thirty, which also starred Jessica Chastain and told the true story of the hunt for Osama Bin Laden.

Clarke was...

Nothing destroys a happy mood like watching a spoiler-filled movie trailer. Last month, someone posted a short TV spot for "Alien: Romulus" that revealed the xenomorph nest/hive that appears in the third act -- a secret nugget that would have been thrilling to see on IMAX during my first viewing rather than on a tiny iPhone screen.

Still, despite complaints from fans, studios and marketing companies continually pack include essential plot twists, third-act surprises, and money shots in trailers, anything to fill seats on opening weekend. I get it! Hollywood is a business. However, this questionable approach too often destroys first-time viewings of movies, dampening their impact for viewers who were likely sold on a product after a simple minute-long teaser. But I digress.

Remarkably, this trend has been around for a while. Studios have spoiled movies since the dawn of cinema. Don't believe me? Check out this list...

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (September 1)

Rotten Tomatoes Score: 91%

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes is a dystopian sci-fi action thriller directed by Matt Reeves from a screenplay co-written by Mark Bomback, Rick Jaffa, and Amanda Silver. The 2014 film is the second film in the Planet of the Apes reboot film series and it revolves around Caesar, the chimpanzee leader of the evolved apes. He...

In “Widow Clicquot,” Haley Bennett stars as Barbe-Nicole Clicquot Ponsardin, who was only 27 years old when she took over her husband’s (Tom Sturridge) vineyard after his untimely death in the late 1700s. She went on to become known as the Grande Dame of Champagne for her bubbly innovations, including creating the first vintage champagne in 1810.

All the while, Barbe-Nicole faced pushback as her father-in-law (Ben Miles) tried to take over the business.

The Thoms Napper-directed film — based on Tilar J. Mazzeo’s New York Times bestseller “The Widow Clicquot: The Story of a Champagne Empire and the Woman Who Ruled It” — has been in development in various stages over many years. Bennett, who also serves as a producer, was set to start shooting when their budget was suddenly cut in half after an investor expectedly pulled out. They quickly tweaked the script to keep the entire film based at...

Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty...

At the Taormina Film Festival, Icelandic director Baltasar Kormákur spoke to Variety about romantic drama “Touch,” his adaptation of the novel by Ólafur Jóhann Ólafsson. The film was released last week in the U.S. by Focus Features, earning rave reviews and a 93% Fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes.

Previously Kormákur has filmed Idris Elba versus a lion in “Beast,” and Jason Clarke and Jake Gyllenhaal versus a mountain in “Everest,” but in some ways this story of an old man, Kristófer, reconciling with a lost love as he faces early-onset dementia was just as daunting.

“My daughter gave me the novel for Christmas, and this piqued my interest, but she didn’t say much about what it was. Then I started reading about this old man looking back on his life, and slowly but surely it started tightening its grip on me. It was weirdly a page-turner in the most relaxed way.

Every summer, The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences invites a deluge of new members to join its ranks. Since #OscarsSoWhite back in 2015, the Academy has moved away from its elitist tendencies and toward embracing younger and more diverse artists and executives from all over the world. This year’s invited class is no exception.

If the invitees all accept Academy membership, the total members will number 10,910 and voting members 9,934. And with the addition of the 2024 members, 35 percent of Academy members identify as women, 20 percent of Academy members are from underrepresented ethnic and racial communities, and 20 percent of Academy members are from countries or territories outside the U.S.

The actors, casting directors, costume designers, documentary, executives, makeup artists and hairstylists branches have invited more women than men. The actors, directors, documentary, and writers branches mainly comprised artists from underrepresented communities.

The directors branch features the most impressive array of filmmakers from both international and domestic spheres, such as Lila Avilés (“Totem”), Jayro Bustamante (“La Llorona”), Jd Dillard (“Devotion”), Alice Diop (“Saint Omer”), Boots Riley (“Sorry to Bother You...

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences said Tuesday that it is extending invitations to 487 to join the membership ranks of the Oscar organizer. If all accept, it will bring the Academy’s total membership to 10,910, of which 9,934 would be voting members.

Stars: Vicky Krieps, Viggo Mortensen, Danny Huston, Solly McLeod, Garret Dillahunt, W. Earl Brown, Shane Graham, Rafel Plana, Alex Breaux, Jason Clarke | Written and Directed by Viggo Mortensen

While he is known for a fruitful acting career which includes latter David Cronenberg films, the Oscar-winning Green Book, and The Lord of The Rings trilogy, Viggo Mortensen has also begun directing features. His directorial debut, Falling, premiered at 2020’s Sundance Film Festival before lockdowns led to it being quietly released during tumultuous times. His follow-up, The Dead Don’t Hurt, changes gears to tell a story within the American Frontier.

Set in the 1860s, French-Canadian Vivienne Le Coudy (Vicky Krieps) is a fiercely independent woman who bristles at the idea of being married to a snooty aristocrat. After meeting Danish immigrant Holger Olsen (Mortensen), the pair fall in love and attempt to forge a new life together in a dusty town. Their...

Introduced in the second installment in the Planet of the Apes reboot franchise, Jason Clarke’s Malcolm served as the leading human character, who forms a close bond with Caesar and other apes. However, despite his significant presence in the film, the character was absent from its sequel, War for the Planet of the Apes.

And it was later revealed that the character was actually killed by Woody Harrelson’s Colonel J. Wesley McCullough, with the film’s novelization revealing the details surrounding the unseen death of one of the significant characters in the franchise.

Lost Scene Could Have Delivered a Chilling Opening to War for the Planet of the Apes

The official novelization of the 2017 film War for the Planet of the Apes revealed the real reason Jason Clarke’s character did not appear in the movie. According to the novelization,...

The experience of watching live sports is thrilling enough but time and time again TV shows have proven that a scripted series about a fictional team giving their all to a game while standing side-by-side is also very entertaining. There have been countless great sports TV shows like Friday Night Lights and Ted Lasso that have brought us joy and the feeling of camaraderie that we all want. That’s why we thought of making a list of the 10 very best sports TV shows that you shouldn’t miss out on.

Friday Night Lights Credit – NBC

Friday Night Lights is a sports drama series created by Peter Berg. Inspired by a 1990 nonfiction book titled Friday Night Lights: A Town, a Team, and a Dream by author H.G. Bissinger, the NBC, and The 101 Network series is set in the fictional small Texas town of Dillon and it follows the story of...

After directing Thor: The Dark World, filmmaker Alan Taylor moved on to Terminator Genisys. Released in 2015, it's widely considered the worst movie in the sci-fi franchise's storied history. Meant to serve as a reboot, it introduced a new timeline created when Skynet attempted to kill Sarah Connors as a child.

In the movie's big twist, we learned that Skynet had transformed Jason Clarke's John Connor into a Terminator-hybrid. Joining him in the cast were Emilia Clarke as Sarah, Jai Courtney as Kyle Reese, and Arnold Schwarzenegger as a T-800 dubbed "Pops."

Despite being heavily featured in bizarre promo photos, House of the Dragon star Matt Smith made a relatively minor appearance as the advanced T-5000 Terminator who embodies Skynet, and it sounds like shooting his scenes was a bemusing experience for the British actor.

"My rather brief time in that world. It was quite strange, you know, when I [was] filming,...

The prequel film we have all been waiting for is finally here and I am really happy to say that it is as brilliant and bombastic as the original film. Obviously, we are talking about Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, the prequel to George Miller‘s 2015 Mad Max: Fury Road. Directed by Miller from a screenplay by Nico Lathouris and Miller, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga follows the story of a young Furiosa as she is taken from Green Place of Many Mothers and tries to survive in the wasteland while trying to get back home but the war between great biker horde’s warlord Dementus and Immortan Joe makes it harder. Replacing Charlize Theron from Fury Road, Anya Taylor-Joy takes over the role of Furiosa in the prequel film and it also stars Chris Hemsworth, Tom Burke, Lachy Hulme, John Howard, Angus Sampson, and Nathan Jones. So,...

Think about how competitive the Emmy race is: There are so many excellent shows that deserve attention yet fail to make the nomination cut because they’re either not considered one of the frontrunners or they air on a broadcast network. That’s rough.

Now, imagine being a critically acclaimed drama on a premium network/streaming hybrid in a season where the drama race is pretty wide open. You’ve got big stars, high production values and well-known source material. Shoo-in, right?

Not if you’ve been canceled. (Cue sad trombone sound effect.) That’s the unfortunate fate of “Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty,” the HBO series executive produced by Adam McKay that continued to earn raves in Season 2 for its heightened, not-quite-accurate-but-entertainingly-close-enough take on the 1980s rise of the “Showtime”-era Los Angeles Lakers. “Winning Time” should be in the awards conversation … but wound up getting canceled in September.

Planet Of The Apes Reboot Franchise Ranked As Per Budget(Photo Credit –IMDb)

The Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes has been released in theatres and is doing well. The film is being praised for its spectacular visuals, and it involves many actors using motion captures to play the Apes on screen like in the previous films. It is no surprise that it takes quite a few million to create such a cinematic experience on screen. Today, we have brought you a budget comparison of the Planet of the Apes reboot movies. Keep scrolling for more.

The original movie, Planet of the Apes, was released in 1968 which was followed by the sequels Beneath the Planet of the Apes (1970), Escape from the Planet of the Apes (1971), Conquest of the Planet of the Apes (1972), and Battle for the Planet of the Apes (1973). In addition to the movies, there were TV series as well.

Exclusive: After successfully launching the Extraction film franchise at Netflix, director Sam Hargrave has his eyes set on another potential franchise with a piece of IP that is revving its engines to get out the gate. Sources tell Deadline that Skydance and Mattel Films have closed a deal with Hargrave to direct a live-action movie based on Matchbox, Mattel’s iconic real-world die-cast toy vehicle line. David Coggeshall and Jonathan Tropper are penning the script.

Skydance’s David Ellison, Dana Goldberg and Don Granger will produce alongside Robbie Brenner for Mattel Films. The project will be shepherded by Aimee Rivera for Skydance and Elizabeth Bassin and Andrew Scannell for Mattel Films.

The iconic Matchbox brand was invented in 1953 by automotive enthusiast Jack Odell to solve a challenge for his daughter, who was allowed to take a toy to school only if it was small enough to fit in a matchbox.

With Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes hitting theaters soon, I figured now would be as good a time as any to revisit the recent Planet of the Apes reboot trilogy and journey through Caesar’s story all over again before exploring Kingdom‘s take on the future of the world he created. The modern Planet of the Apes film are something of a pleasantly surprising enigma in popular culture.

In an age where many reboots either adhere so closely to the source material as to feel like a redundant carbon copy or stray so far as to be completely unrecognizable, the Apes trilogy manages to find that balance of maintaining the spirit of the original films while carving out an identity and a story all its own. But just how did they accomplish such a feat? Let’s find out.

Before you make your 2024 Emmy predictions for Best Drama Supporting Actor, take a tour of our photo gallery showcasing the men most likely to land in the lineup. Last year’s race was completely dominated by actors from “Succession” and “The White Lotus,” neither of which can produce nominees this time since the former ended last May and the latter won’t return until 2025.

Naturally, this category’s sole presently eligible former winner – Billy Crudup – has emerged as the frontrunner. Among his likeliest competitors are two of his own cast mates: 2020 nominee Mark Duplass and series newcomer Jon Hamm, who won the 2015 Best Drama Actor Emmy for “Mad Men” and is widely expected to take this year’s limited series lead prize for “Fargo.”

Other outside winners in the mix include James Cromwell (“Sugar”; formerly of “American Horror Story”), Nathan Lane (“The Gilded Age”; “Only Murders in the Building”), and...

The 96th Academy Awards have come and gone, and the night's victor was absolutely "Oppenheimer," Christopher Nolan's epic chronicling the primary developer of the atomic bomb (Cillian Murphy), which won seven Oscars during the ceremony.

It's doubly impressive since 2023 was a dang good year for movies. Surveying the Best Picture nominees, both veteran filmmakers like Martin Scorsese ("Killers of the Flower Moon") and promising new artists such as Celine Song ("Past Lives") stand in its ranks. But really, "Oppenheimer" was the achievement of the year — and yes, without any disrespect to Greta Gerwig or Margot Robbie, I'd even put it ahead of "Barbie," its unofficial "Barbenheimer" double-bill picture.

The triumph of "Oppenheimer" looped back around from feeling inevitable to uncertain to ensured once again. The film opened to rapturous reception, but it was a summer release. Would something come along in the typical Oscar months of autumn to dethrone it?...

Cillian Murphy has won the Oscar for best actor for his turn as J. Robert Oppenheimer, the theoretical physicist and “father of the atomic bomb,” in Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer.”

The admittedly “overwhelmed” actor thanked the Academy, Nolan and executive producer Emma Thomas. “It’s been the wildest, most exhilarating, most creatively satisfying journey you’ve taken me on over the last 20 years, I owe you more than I can say,” he said.

“Thank you so much [to] every single crew member, every single cast member on ‘Oppenheimer,’ you guys carried me through. All my fellow nominees, I remain in awe of you guys. Truly.”

The actor then paused for a personal moment thanking, “My two boys who are sitting up there, I love you so much, and I’m a very proud Irishman standing here tonight.”

Taking a turn for the serious Murphy then dedicated his moment on stage to those fighting for peace.

The actors who were nominated in this category for Oscars 2024 include – Robert Downey Jr for Oppenheimer, Robert De Niro for Killers of the Flower Moon, Sterling K Brown for American Fiction, Ryan Gosling for Barbie and Mark Ruffalo for Poor Things.

The actor who won the Oscars 2024 Best Supporting Actor is Robert Downey Jr for Oppenheimer. He played Lewis Strauss in Christopher Nolan’s one of the most acclaimed films.

Alfre Woodard has joined the cast of the upcoming Apple TV drama series “The Last Frontier,” Variety has learned exclusively.

Woodard joins previously announced series lead Jason Clarke in the show, as well as cast members Haley Bennett, Dominic Cooper, Simone Kessell, Tait Blum, and “Reservation Dogs” alum Dallas Goldtooth. Apple has given the show a 10-episode order.

Per the official description, the series “follows US Marshall Frank Remnick (Clarke), the lone Marshal in charge of the quiet, rugged barrens of Alaska, whose jurisdiction is turned upside-down when a prison transport plane crashes in the remote wilderness, setting free dozens of violent inmates. Tasked with protecting the town he’s vowed to keep safe, he begins to suspect the crash wasn’t an accident, but the first step of a well-crafted plan with international political implications.”

A catchy nickname for Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer crew has emerged during awards season: the Oppenhomies. During his acceptance speech for best actor at Saturday’s SAG Awards, Cillian Murphy made sure to give credit where it’s due by revealing the specific Oppenhomie who came up with it.

“Just an Fyi on that exquisite moniker, Oppenhomies, that was actually invented by the great Olivia Thirlby,” Murphy said of the actress who plays Lilli Hornig in Nolan’s epic about American scientist J. Robert Oppenheimer and the events surrounding the creation of the atomic bomb. “So Olivia, I think you should immediately trademark that and start merching the shit out of it because someone else will.”

Murphy then got serious by calling his peers “the greatest group of actors I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with.” It’s a long and impressive list, too, that includes Emily Blunt,...

Veteran actor Cillian Murphy has left an indelible mark on audiences worldwide, notably through his iconic roles as the brilliant physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer in Oppenheimer. His ability to immerse himself in characters and captivate audiences with his nuanced portrayal is truly remarkable.

However, amidst his illustrious career, there exists a particular moment that stirred a deep sense of unease within the actor.

Cillian Murphy as J. Robert Oppenheimer in Oppenheimer

Murphy, known for his fearless approach to his craft, found himself unnerved during the filming of a pivotal scene in Christopher Nolan’s masterpiece Oppenheimer. In this scene, set within a tiny room, the intensity escalated beyond what had been initially envisioned.

Reflecting on the experience, Murphy revealed that Jason Clarke’s ferocity in that sequence caught him off guard, unsettling him in a way he hadn’t anticipated.

Following The Film Stage’s collective top 50 films of 2023, as part of our year-end coverage, our contributors are sharing their personal top 10 lists.

It also encourages groupthink, even if some of the nominated films are, well, deserving of those nominations. There’s the predictable pattern of acclaim, backlash, backlash to the backlash, and then maybe a few awards and the hopes of a short memory about how the awards campaign went.

Thus, creating a top-ten is always a bit tough. It’s a mixture of subjective and objective critiques, personal preferences mixed with universally regarded favorites. With that, there’s been more than enough written about Killers of the Flower Moon, Oppenheimer, Barbie, The Holdovers, etc. that...

Was 2023 a good year for movies? The end of each moviegoing year always raises that age-old question and, as always, the ultimate answer remains squarely in the eye of the beholder. For most, that tends to come down to the most populist theatrical offerings.

But for those of us who spend entirely too much time and effort on the hunt for hidden gems beneath the surface, international cinema from the most exciting talent around the globe, and overlooked indies that didn't have millions of marketing dollars to throw around, that turns out to be the wrong question to ask in the first place.

What we should be talking about is whether we've caught up on all the undeniably great movies readily available to us,...
