Kathryn Hahn is getting back into the witchy spirit.
After stealing scenes as Agatha Harkness in Marvel Studios’ “WandaVision,” Hahn reprises her role for spinoff Disney+ series “Agatha All Along.”
Per the elusive official synopsis, the show centers on the infamous titular Agatha, who finds herself down and out of power after a suspicious goth teen (Joe Locke) helps break her free from a distorted spell. Her interest is piqued when he begs her to take him on the legendary Witches’ Road, a magical gauntlet of trials that, if survived, rewards a witch with what they’re missing. Together, Agatha and this mysterious teen pull together a desperate coven, and set off down, down, down The Road…
“WandaVision” creative force Jac Schaeffer serves as showrunner and directs the pilot episode. Rachel Goldberg and Gandja Montiero direct additional episodes.
The series co-stars Sasheer Zamata, Ali Ahn, Maria Dizzia, Paul Adelstein, Miles Gutierrez-Riley,...

Mother, Couch is the type of movie with a jaw-dropping cast that you keep hoping and praying gets better but never turns that corner. And that’s saying something for a film that mercifully ends around the 90-minute mark. The film has worthy performances, particularly from its star, Ewan McGregor, who does what he can to elevate the material.
However, Mother, Couch is more interested in its existential mood than in what will draw the audience in. The story is not engaging or interesting, and, for that matter, entertaining is the story. That’s the one thing about some first-time directors—they forget their audience.

A24, the Oscar-winning indie studio that has become an edgy brand name unto itself, is getting a big vote of confidence — and an influx of cash.
The studio said Wednesday it has closed on an investment round led by Joshua Kushner’s Thrive Capital. The Hollywood Reporter has learned that Thrive invested $75 million into the indie studio based on a $3.25 billion pre-money valuation. A source close to A24 with knowledge of the investment notes that the company’s enterprise valuation now sits at $3.5 billion, suggesting this round of funding will net the company a roughly $250 million total investment.
As a part of the investment, Thrive founder Kushner will join the A24 board of directors.
The news of the A24’s new valuation and Thrive’s investment comes as the studio pushed into more commercial projects, with bigger budgets and A-list talent. There was a period, not too long ago, when...

Exclusive: Kat Cunning (Rap Sh!t), McCabe Slye (Fear Street), Connor Paolo (The Last Stop in Yuma County) and Eddie Martinez (Night Swim) are set to topline Star People, an independently financed sci-fi drama marking the first narrative feature from writer-director Adam Finberg (The Business of Recovery), which has wrapped production in and around the Phoenix area.
Also in the cast are Martinez’s daughter Adriana Aluna Martinez (Max’s Duster), who here makes her feature debut, and Bradley Fisher (Beau Is Afraid).
Inspired by The Phoenix Lights of 1997, the largest mass UFO sighting in U.S. history, which saw assorted unidentified flying objects observed in the skies over the southwestern U.S., Star People tells the story of a photographer who receives a tip that could finally shed light on her childhood UFO sighting, though a deadly heatwave and unexpected guests threaten to derail her obsessive search for answers.

Austin Butler is teasing as much as he can about Ari Aster’s upcoming fourth feature “Eddington.”
Butler is part of a star-studded ensemble cast for the secretive project that includes Academy Award winners Joaquin Phoenix and Emma Stone, plus Pedro Pascal, Glen Powell, Luke Grimes, Deirdre O’Connell, Micheal Ward, and Clifton Collins Jr.
Butler told The Hollywood Reporter that the film is a “wild adventure” unlike anything he has done before.
“I’m a huge fan of Ari and Joaquin [Phoenix] and Emily [Emma Stone] and [Dp] Darius Khondji and everybody involved. The entire team was incredible to work with,” Butler said. “I don’t want to give much away as far as the story and character go, but it was a wild adventure that I got to go on. I got to play a character who’s very different from anything that I’ve done.”

It’s not “The Golden Girls,” but get ready for a new, even gayer roommate sitcom.
I can exclusively report that Matt Bomer and Nathan Lane are set to star in “Mid-Century Modern,” a multi-cam series for Hulu executive produced by Ryan Murphy and created by “Will & Grace’s” Max Mutchnick and David Kohan.
Sources reveal that Bomer will take on the ditzy Rose-like character, played by Betty White in the original “Golden Girls,” with Lane taking on the Dorothy (Bea Arthur) of the bunch. Linda Lavin will play Lane’s mother, a la the original Sophia.
The new series will be set in gay mecca of Palm Springs. James Burrows is directing the pilot.

Furiosa Saga Struggles The prequel to 2015’s Mad Max: Fury Road, Furiosa (2024), failed to live up to its predecessor. Picky fans criticized the CGI, comparing it unfavorably to Fury Road’s practical effects. Despite having grand action sequences, its underperformance in theaters and a 60% revenue drop in the second weekend guaranteed it as a box office flop. Beau is Afraid Didn’t Attract Viewers Ari Aster’s $35 million venture, Beau Is Afraid (2023), featuring Joaquin Phoenix, was an unsettling trip for many. Despite critical acclaim, the film’s off-putting, comedic grotesquerie didn’t sit well with general audiences. One critic noted, …an...

French Canadian director Sophie Dupuis’ third feature, “Solo,” saunters past the usual questions of queer identity and acceptance we often see onscreen.
Instead, her film starring 26-year-old muse Théodore Pellerin dances headlong into the suffocating effects of toxic love, via an art form that’s all about liberation: drag.
The Toronto Film Festival premiere opens with a gorgeous, sinewy rising star of the Montreal drag scene (Pellerin) twirling across the stage to Abba’s “Voulez-Vous,” while the screen goes from black to neon shades of purple. As the scene bleeds into a montage of Simon, now out of drag and dancing under the club lights, the world of “Solo” widens to his fellow queens, his sister Maude (Alice Moreault), and a newbie performer who catches his eye, Oliver (Félix Maritaud). And, for a brief moment, it appears that the carefree Simon is destined to have it all: a passionate romance with the recent French arrival,...

The classic tale of Hansel & Gretel has been brought to the screen a handful of times over the years, and now an upcoming stop motion animated film has attracted some A-list talent.
Variety reports that Ari Aster and Lars Knudsen have boarded the Hansel & Gretel movie as executive producers through their company Square Peg.
Chilean filmmakers Cristóbal León and Joaquín Cociña (The Hyperboreans) are directing. Variety notes, “The story is expected to twist the fairy tale into inimitable shapes.”
The duo co-directed the stop motion movie The Wolf House back in 2018, and they also worked in the animation department on Ari Aster’s most recent movie, Beau Is Afraid.
“It’s our very personal adaptation of the classic fairy tale, with the main difference that Hansel and Gretel are both boys in this version, at least at the beginning of the story,” Cristóbal León explained. In this telling, “the story itself gets lost,...

World leaders at a G7 conference politely bicker, copulate in the bushes and work on wafty, content-free speeches while a worldwide apocalypse commences — politicians, they’re just like us! — in collaborating Canadian directors Guy Maddin, Evan Johnson and Galen Johnson’s frequently hilarious latest feature.
Although they’ve kept busy with a steady stream of shorts, the trio haven’t made a feature with actors since the fantastical The Forbidden Room from 2015. With a proper beginning, middle and end, and barely any tributes to silent cinema or interactive tricksiness, Rumours may arguably be Maddin’s most conventional film ever, or at least since The Saddest Music in the World (2003). That is, if you can call a film conventional that’s got furiously masturbating bog zombies, a giant brain the size of a hatchback, and an AI chatbot that catfishes pedophiles. All the same, it’s a hoot, even if the energy flags in the middle.

From the Land of Ice and Snow: Cocina & Leon Pursue Hermetical Cinematic Spell
To say the latest feature from the experimentally inclined Chilean directing duo Cristóbal León and Joaquín Cociña is unclassifiable would be something of an understatement, delving as it does into a new frontier of juxtapositions, collapsing visual textures and narrative structures while somehow remaining coherent. Following their sinister 2018 animated feature The Wolf House (2018) and having contributed to the standout animated sequences of Ari Aster’s Beau is Afraid (2023), the duo deliver something even more exceptionally offbeat with The Hyperboreans (Los hiperbóreos), a reference to inhabitants of ‘the extreme north,’ here routed back to the troubling Aryan mythos of self-classified supreme racial hierarchies fantasized by the Nazis.…...

Disney+ has revealed the release dates for its WandaVision spin-off, Agatha All Along and Daredevil: Born Again.
After several, tongue-firmly-in-cheek title changes, Disney+ has finally given its WandaVision spin-off a final title: Agatha All Along.
The cast, including Kathryn Hahn, Joe Locke and Patti LuPone, were promoting the series at Disney’s Upfront event yesterday, revealed the title and also when we get to see the series itself.
Agatha All Along will premiere on Disney+ on 18th September with two episodes, continuing with weekly episodes after that. There was also a trailer, but this hasn’t made its way online yet. We’ll make sure to share it once it does. However, IGN has detailed what the audience at the presentation saw, if you’re into that kind of thing.
“We can say that the coven is strong,” Hahn told Deadline at the event when asked for details about the new series.

Movies offer an excellent excuse to ruminate on your deepest fears, and they’re certainly cheaper than therapy. So if you’re struggling with some deep mommy issues, why not cue up a matriarchal tale of terror and sort through some of that trauma in style?
Auteurs have been hashing out their issues with their mothers on the big screen for decades, to varying degrees of success. Consider mother-centric horror as its own subgenre, and you’ll notice there’s a tendency among filmmakers to take more than one stab at the thorny subject matter. Alfred Hitchcock used the real crimes of serial killer Ed Gein and added a profoundly morbid murder of a mother at a motel to brilliantly realize Norma and Norman Bates (Anthony Perkins) for his exquisite “Psycho” in 1960, of course. But he’d whipped up something just as insidiously spectacular with Leopoldine Konstantin for his earlier...

Ewan McGregor and Ellen Burstyn are a toxic son-mother duo just in time for Mother’s Day.
The aptly titled indie film “Mother, Couch” marks first time filmmaker Niclas Larsson’s directorial debut. Larsson penned the script based on Jerker Virdborg’s novel “Mamma I Soffa” that centers on a dysfunctional family trying to convince their mother (Burstyn) to leave a department store.
A trio of estranged children — David (McGregor), Gruffudd (Rhys Ifans), and Linda (Lara Flynn Boyle) — must figure out how to escape the eerie store that is owned by identical twins Marco and Marcus (F. Murray Abraham) and daughter Bella (Taylor Russell). The film becomes a descent into madness and mayhem as the store melts into a surreal purgatory where the two families must purge their long-withheld resentments.
“Mother, Couch” is produced by Ella Bishop and Pau Suris for Suris/Bishop Films, Alex Black for Lyrical Media, and Sara Murphy for Fat City.

In the 11 years since it burst onto the scene, A24 has accomplished something virtually unheard of in the film industry: establishing itself as a distributor with a fanbase that rivals those of the biggest directors.
Through a carefully curated lineup of acquisitions and original projects (and some seriously impressive marketing strategy), the company has become synonymous with crowd-pleasing independent filmmaking executed at the highest possible level. And its effortlessly cool promotional campaigns and brand collaborations have turned its logo into the ultimate stamp of approval for any project seeking film geek street cred.
The brand is elastic enough to be applied to a wide variety of projects — this is the company that released both “Moonlight” and “Spring Breakers,” after all — but you can generally recognize an A24 movie when you see one. It’s always going to be an auteur-driven work that unapologetically swerves away from mainstream trends in favor...

Unless you've been living under a rock recently, you're aware that movie theaters have been in a tough spot for nearly half a decade now, if not longer. Various factors have contributed to this, of course -- everything from the Covid-19 pandemic to the economy itself contributing to higher prices for a night out at the movies (especially for a family). Yet perhaps the biggest point of contention for those not fully inducted into the church of moviegoing is that old chestnut coined by Jean-Paul Sartre: Hell is other people.
Due to being at the tail end of several decades' worth of manufacturers and big box stores pushing home theater technology, the average living room theater setup tends to rival most generic movie theater screens in terms of picture and sound quality, with the convenience of the setup already being in one's home, away from loud talking randos and teens on their bright smartphones,...

Director Alex Garland’s provocative dystopian thriller “Civil War” lit up the box office with $25.7 million in its debut. It’s the first A24 movie to lead the charts in North America, setting an opening weekend record for the New York-based specialty studio. It also marks the biggest R-rated start of the year.
Heading into the weekend, “Civil War” was projected to kick off with $15 million to $20 million. Those ticket sales would have been enough to overtake 2018’s “Hereditary” (which opened in fourth place to $13.6 million) as A24’s biggest debut. But the film, starring Kirsten Dunst as a journalist who traverses a violently divided United States, is benefitting from curiosity among moviegoers and premium large formats like Imax and Dolby Cinemas. According to the studio, “Civil War” overperformed in markets like Los Angeles and El Paso, Texas.

Don Hertzfeldt understands why fans are jumping to conclusions after learning he’s already hard at work on a mysterious new feature with Ari Aster.
But anyone in attendance at the fourth-ever screening of his new film “Me” and the Q&a that followed at The Overlook Film Festival can confirm: Don never said anything definitive about what genre that movie would be.
“It’s funny it’s being described as an ‘existential horror’ movie, two words I didn’t actually say,” Hertzfeldt told IndieWire in a text. “I guess maybe it will end up being an existential horror movie in the end, but that’s not really how I’d describe it today. But I also get why people might think that when you squash our names together.”

You just want to work faster. I’m jealous of actors, of musicians, of people able to put out multiple things in one year. To take two years to make a short film is just absurd. I don’t want to use a Marvel term, but we’re expanding the universe,” he told The Guardian. “I don’t relish doing this alone! I can’t be drawing little round heads by myself for the rest of my life.”

A24 is a studio that has built up a good name over the last decade and change in Hollywood. It's a name that means something to moviegoers, and that's no small thing. But as the studio looks to compete in an increasingly volatile Hollywood landscape, minor theatrical successes like "Priscilla" and disastrous flops such as "Under the Silver Lake" aren't going to cut it anymore. So, the studio is going bigger and making its biggest bet ever with Alex Garland's "Civil War." The question is, can this politically-charged, unconventional war film break through like a more conventional blockbuster?
Given that Garland's latest carries a $50 million budget, A24 is certainly hoping so. The good news is that the initial numbers suggest that this one will be a winner, at least in the early going. "Civil War" is eyeing an opening between $18 and $24 million when it arrives next weekend, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Starring Chris Pratt and Rebecca Ferguson, sci-fi thriller Mercy is taking shape, with Kali Reis and Rafi Gavron among the actors joining its cast.
For the past few months, Wanted director Timur Bekmambetov has quietly assembled what could end up being one of the starriest sci-fi films of 2025. In January, Amazon MGM bought up the global theatrical rights for Mercy – which is unsurprising, given the package: it has Chris Pratt and Rebecca Ferguson attached as its stars, and Hollywood veteran Charles Roven as its producer.
In the weeks since, more and more names have been added, including Annabelle Wallis (who starred in the gleefully twisted Malignant) and Kali Reis, who made a strong impression in the hit series True Detective: Night County. Most recently, Deadline reports that four more actors have been added to the roster: Rafi Garon (A Star Is Born), Chris Sullivan (This Is Us), Kenneth Choi (9-...

The news comes about a week and a half before CinemaCon, the major studios and exhibitors’ annual love-in in Las Vegas. I’m told that some studios have heard the sales pitch for the cinephile circuit, which counts 41 locations across 13 states. No bidders as of yet.
Also, there’s no word on an asking price for Alamo Drafthouse. However, the Tim League-founded chain cleared $134M at the 2023 box office, +25% over 2022, per box office intel. That percentile jump is higher than the actual domestic B.O. rise of 22% between those two years; the 2023 B.O. for U.S./Canada hit $9 billion.

Austin Butler is continuing his auteur collaborations, this time partnering up with Darren Aronofsky.
Butler, who was Oscar-nominated for his breakout transformative “Elvis” role, is set to lead Aronofsky’s upcoming feature “Caught Stealing.” Novelist Charlie Huston will adapt his own work for the screen. Protozoa is producing the Sony crime thriller. The novel is the first installment of Huston’s Henry Thompson trilogy series.
“Caught Stealing” was originally set for an adaptation in 2013 with Patrick Wilson cast in the lead role, now occupied by Butler. The story follows Hank Thompson, a former high school baseball prospect turned alcoholic bartender who gets caught up in a treasure hunt through New York City. A sadistic police officer tries to outrun Thompson, hitmen, and mobsters to find the treasure. Alec Baldwin was cast as the cop in the 2013 iteration that was slated to be written by David Hayter and directed by Wayne Kramer.

Fans of Arthouse Emma Stone Sicko Cinema™, have I got good news for you. Coming off her second Oscar win, the "La La Land" star is currently in the midst of shooting what's sure to be a strange and twisted spin on the Western genre in the shape of Ari Aster's "Eddington." But before we lay our eyes on the "Midsommar" and "Beau Is Afraid" director's latest oddity, Stone herself will reunite with her "Poor Things" and "The Favourite" helmer Yorgos Lanthimos for a new project.
Titled "Kinds of Kindness," Stone and Lanthimos finished shooting their new film near the tail-end of 2022, which is the reason it's already good to go so soon after "Poor Things" once again stirred up the "Are Sex Scenes Necessary?" discourse. The movie sees Lanthimos directing from an original script he co-penned with his "Dogtooth," "The Lobster," and "The Killing of a Sacred Deer...

Beau should not sleep. Earlier in the day, when he tried to leave his apartment to see his mother, Beau left his door open with the keys still in the lock. When he returned to the door after turning back to retrieve a forgotten item, his keys were gone.
Worse, when Beau asks a man in the hallway about the missing keys, the passerby shouts, “You’re fucked, pal!”
Yes, the above scene does occur in Beau is Afraid, last year’s weirdo epic starring Joaquin Phoenix as the titular disturbed man. But before he made Beau is Afraid as his third feature film, director Ari Aster introduced Billy Mayo as the fearful lead of his short movie, “Beau.”
Although Beau is Afraid benefits from a much larger budget and A-list stars, including Patti LuPone as Beau’s famous mother and Parker Posey as his childhood love, and although it...

Films like Barbie and Oppenheimer were (falsely) said to have been made without CGI. Are VFX artists being unfairly airbrushed from movie-making, Ryan wonders…
Poles apart in terms of story and tone though they were, last year’s Barbie and Oppenheimer were both partly marketed on their use of traditional filmmaking techniques and lack of CGI. Greta Gerwig and her team built physical (and very pink) sets for Barbie Town, we were told; Christopher Nolan had used untold barrels of fuel and good, old-fashioned pyrotechnics to simulate the detonation of the first atomic bomb.
For several weeks, outlets carried stories with headlines like, “Barbie Filmed These Scenes Without CGI,” (Yahoo) and such choice quotes as “It’s exactly as they’d have done it in the 1910s” – which came from movie historian Pamela Hutchinson, speaking to The Guardian last July. Vogue magazine ran a lengthy feature about Barbie’s production which stated,...

The series kicks off March 27 with Alex Garland’s Ex Machina (2014). Following the movie, the audience will be treated to an exclusive sneak peek of the filmmaker’s upcoming dystopian pic Civil War.
A24 opens Civil War in theaters everywhere in North America on April 12, following its world premiere this week at SXSW (the pic was already set to get a full run in Imax).
Imax’s profile has never been higher, thanks to record-breaking numbers for Denis Villeneuve’s Dune: Part Two and capped by Oppenheimer‘s Oscars sweep on Sunday, including winning best picture.

The series kicks off March 27 with Alex Garland’s Ex Machina (2014). Following the movie, the audience will be treated to an exclusive sneak peek of the filmmaker’s upcoming dystopian pic Civil War.
A24 opens Civil War in theaters everywhere in North America on April 12, following its world premiere this week at SXSW (the pic was already set to get a full run in Imax).
Imax’s profile has never been higher, thanks to record-breaking numbers for Denis Villeneuve’s Dune: Part Two and capped by Oppenheimer‘s Oscars sweep on Sunday, including winning best picture.

A24 and Imax have teamed up to bring past A24 titles to large format fans in a new monthly screening series kicking off March 27. The Imax debut of Alex Garland’s 2014 sci-fi classic Ex Machina is first up with the presentation including an “exclusive sneak peek” at Garland’s upcoming Civil War.
Civil War, also from A24, premieres at SXSW tomorrow and debuts in theaters, including Imax, April 12.
The initiative, which looks to serve both partners well, calls for Imax to digitally remaster films from A24’s library of 140+ features for the screening series, which will run once a month for the next year. Ari Aster’s Hereditary (2018) is next up on April 24 followed by the Safdie Brothers’ Uncut Gems (2019) on May 22.
Screenings will be held at more than 300 Imax locations nationwide and some international theaters.

As Oscar night fades in the rearview, arguments over who got robbed and who had the nicest dress continue to recede. One story, however, continues to rage on — a backlash (and backlash to the backlash) to the acceptance speech given by Jonathan Glazer alongside producers James Wilson and Len Blavatnik when The Zone of Interest won for best international film. THR has learned that that, even though Glazer claimed to speak for all three of them, he had not run his comments by Blavatnik, according to a spokesperson for the billionaire.
Glazer, The Zone of Interest’s writer-director, said (and it’s important to get this right) that his Auschwitz-set movie “shows where dehumanization leads at its worst” and continued “right now we stand here as men who refute their Jewishness and the Holocaust being hijacked by an occupation which has led to conflict for so many innocent people,...

Ari Aster is a director you either love or hate. There is no in-between. With several divisive yet intriguing movies behind him, the young director has decided to tackle a new genre, as his upcoming movie Eddington is going to be a “contemporary western” set in New Mexico. While the project is still in the early stages of development, we have finally received a list of cast members that reveals some major names that are going to star in the movie.
After collaborating with Aster on Beau Is Afraid, in one of his better roles, Joaquin Phoenix will be returning to collaborate with Aster once more. This time, he will be joined by two-time Oscar-winner Emma Stone, fan-favorite Pedro Pascal, and Oscar-nominee Austin Butler in what promises to be a very exciting film based on these names.

All artists have phases within their careers, and while it's easy to demarcate what those phases are in hindsight, it can also be possible to see them emerging and mutating in real time. Emma Stone, an actress who began her journey as a comedy darling in films like "Superbad," "The House Bunny," and "Zombieland," soon found herself climbing to the A-list, nominated for an Academy Award for "Birdman" and winning Best Actress for "La La Land."
This past weekend, Stone won the Oscar for Best Actress for the second time, for her performance as Bella Baxter in "Poor Things." It's a win that seemingly signals a change in her career from a quirky ingenue to a complex and daring leading lady, especially when coupled with her other recent turn as Whitney Siegel in "The Curse."
Continuing that emerging trend, The Hollywood Reporter just announced that she'll be joining the cast...
