<p>This project has all the ingredients to be the blockbuster of the year. Produced and directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller in their first directing effort since “22 Jump Street” and written by Drew Goddard who previously adapted Weir’s “The Martian,” their upcomig collaboration carries big expectations. But beyond the star-studded team, <strong>the newly released trailer speaks for itself. </strong>Watch it below.</p>



<h2>Ryan Gosling Goes Galactic in First Trailer for ‘Project Hail Mary’</h2>



<p>The epic sci-fi film, set in the near future, <strong>follows junior high school teacher turned astronaut Ryland Grace</strong>, who awakens from a coma suffering from amnesia. As his memories slowly return, he recalls being sent to the Tau Ceti solar system, 12 light-years from Earth, on a critical mission to find a solution for reversing a solar dimming event that threatens to cause humanity’s extinction.</p>

<p>Joining Ryan Gosling are <strong>Sandra Hüller, Milana Vayntrub, Lionel Boyce</strong>, and <strong>Ken Leung.</strong> Sandra Hüller’s involvement has generated significant excitement, especially after her acclaimed performances in “Anatomy of a Fall” and “The Zone of Interest” in 2023, which captivated audiences worldwide and earned Oscar recognition.</p>



<p>Looking ahead, <strong>this will not be the last collaboration between Phil Lord and Christopher Miller and Andy Weir’s work.</strong> The duo is set to direct “Artemis,” a story set in the late 2080s in the Moon’s first city, following porter and smuggler Jasmine “Jazz” Bashara as she becomes entangled in a conspiracy for control of Artemis. </p>



<p>Additionally, <strong>another film originally written by Weir</strong> and directed by Lord and Miller is also in development. With multiple projects on the horizon, exciting things are coming for sci-fi fans.</p>

<h2>The Visit</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="680" height="435" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/spen/full/SPEN_20250627_SPEN_70785_AA1ttUzl_d4d3af5d.webp&amp;width=680&amp;height=435" alt="" class="wp-image-70786" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/26152259/AA1ttUzl.jpg 680w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/26152259/AA1ttUzl-300x192.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px"></figure><figcaption>IMDb</figcaption></figure>



<p>M. Night Shyamalan is a rock-solid guarantee of the unconventional, and “The Visit” is one of his most acclaimed takes on the subject. The title depicts the sinister secrets of a seemingly harmless elderly couple living in an isolated farmhouse as they try to reconnect with their estranged grandchildren. As is standard for the director, the plot twist is absolutely jaw-dropping.</p>



<h2>Infinity Pool</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="680" height="435" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/spen/full/SPEN_20250627_SPEN_70785_AA1ttWZM_a9171819.webp&amp;width=680&amp;height=435" alt="" class="wp-image-70787" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/26152326/AA1ttWZM.jpg 680w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/26152326/AA1ttWZM-300x192.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px"></figure><figcaption>IMDb</figcaption></figure>



<p>Directed by Brandon Cronenberg, the son of David Cronenberg, “Infinity Pool” demonstrates that creativity can sometimes be inherited. Set in the same vein of body horror crafted by The Baron of Blood, the picture centers on a writer and his wife vacationing in the fictional seaside country of Li Tolqa. After an accident, they discover the location’s dark culture and the macabre penalties for those who commit crimes.</p>



<h2>It Comes at Night</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="680" height="435" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/spen/full/SPEN_20250627_SPEN_70785_AA1tu6dw_fbe8a7c4.webp&amp;width=680&amp;height=435" alt="" class="wp-image-70788" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/26152403/AA1tu6dw.jpg 680w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/26152403/AA1tu6dw-300x192.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px"></figure><figcaption>IMDb</figcaption></figure>



<p>When it comes to crafting post-apocalyptic-themed productions, fresh narratives are essential to building worlds out of our imagination, and “It Comes at Night” features one of the most unique. As a contagious disease kills the entire planet, a man and his family adhere to very strict rules to survive in a home deep in the woods, but everything changes when desperate young intruders arrive seeking refuge.</p>



<h2>Late Night with the Devil</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="680" height="435" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/spen/full/SPEN_20250627_SPEN_70785_AA1ttZJ7_9bfd45d8.webp&amp;width=680&amp;height=435" alt="" class="wp-image-70789" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/26152433/AA1ttZJ7.jpg 680w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/26152433/AA1ttZJ7-300x192.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px"></figure><figcaption>IMDb</figcaption></figure>



<p>The common places for filming in the found footage style tend to be dark woods or abandoned asylums, but what about a talk show? “Late Night with the Devil” deviates from the norm by first telling the story of a late-night interview program that went incredibly wrong due to paranormal forces, and then showing exactly how it happened, from the first to the last minute on air.</p>

<p><strong>Michael Bay may not be done with “Transformers” just yet.</strong> After years away from the director’s chair, the filmmaker behind some of the biggest blockbusters of the 2000s is reportedly eyeing a return to the franchise that made “Bayhem” a box office phenomenon.</p>



<p>The idea of Bay coming back to the world of Autobots and Decepticons <strong>is already making waves.</strong> If it happens, it would mark a major turning point for the series—and for the director who helped define it.</p>



<h2>Bay’s Potential ‘Transformers’ Return: What We Know So Far</h2>



<p>Michael Bay is reportedly preparing to return to the “Transformers” franchise with a new movie that he is developing and may direct. Having launched the live-action series in 2007 and directed five films over the years, <strong>Bay is said to be the driving force behind this potential comeback</strong>, according to Matt Belloni of Puck News. So, unlike previous times, this move comes from Bay himself rather than an offer from the studio.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/spen/full/SPEN_20250627_SPEN_70825_Transformers1-1024x576_eae29948.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="" class="wp-image-70827" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/27171334/Transformers1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/27171334/Transformers1-300x169.jpg 300w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/27171334/Transformers1-768x432.jpg 768w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/27171334/Transformers1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/27171334/Transformers1-740x416.jpg 740w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/27171334/Transformers1-490x275.jpg 490w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/27171334/Transformers1-250x140.jpg 250w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/27171334/Transformers1.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Source: IMDb</figcaption></figure>



<p>The project is currently linked with writer Jordan VanDina, known for his work on “The Binge.” While the picture seems to be in very early development stages, insiders suggest <strong>Bay could take on a significant producing role if he does not step back into the director’s chair.</strong> There is no clear indication yet whether this new entry will continue the narrative from Bay’s earlier films, follow the reboot timeline, or serve as a complete fresh start for the franchise.</p>



<p>As stated, the specifics are still under wraps, but one thing is certain: This potential return signals Bay’s interest in revisiting the high-energy, explosive style that defined the earlier “Transformers” movies. Whether fans will get a continuation of the familiar story or a new take entirely remains to be seen, <strong>but Bay’s involvement guarantees the franchise will retain its trademark intensity.</strong></p>

Michael Bay Is Reportedly Working on a New Transformers Film - Spoiler US



        


<p>Before the multiverse, before the Avengers, and before superhero fatigue set in, <strong>there was Spider-Man.</strong> Sam Raimi’s early 2000s trilogy redefined what a comic book movie could be, blending heart, humor, and high-flying action in a way that felt both groundbreaking and deeply personal.

<p>From the iconic upside down kiss to the haunting rise of Doctor Octopus, these films delivered unforgettable moments that still resonate with fans today. Raimi’s unique mix of pulpy horror and sincere storytelling helped shape the future of superhero cinema, and now, <strong>this legendary trilogy is returning to theaters for a limited time.</strong></p>

<h2>The Joker Role That Left a Comedy Legend Fuming</h2>

<p>Before Jack Nicholson painted his face white and gave Gotham its maniacal menace, the studio dangled the role of the Joker in front of another Hollywood heavyweight: Robin Williams. When Nicholson hesitated to sign on, producers offered the part to Williams, who accepted enthusiastically. </p>



<p>But the move was a calculated bluff. Once Nicholson saw the offer was slipping away, he quickly claimed the role, and Williams was unceremoniously dropped. The comedian never forgot being used as leverage. He later turned down the chance to play the Riddler and refused to work with Warner Bros. until he received a personal apology. His next film with the studio wouldn’t come until years later with “Fathers’ Day.”</p>

<p>Michael Keaton approached Batman with a mind for realism. Known for being a logic freak, he questioned how someone as public as Bruce Wayne could hide his identity with just a mask. Keaton floated ideas like contact lenses to further obscure his appearance, but in the end he landed on something deceptively simple yet groundbreaking. He changed his voice. </p>



<p>By giving Batman a lower, more commanding tone than his Bruce Wayne persona, Keaton created a vocal duality that became a defining trait of the character. His choice paved the way for future Batmen like Kevin Conroy and Christian Bale, who each made the split voice a hallmark of their performances.</p>



<h2>Jack Nicholson’s Contract Was the Real Masterstroke</h2>

<p>Jack Nicholson made one of the smartest deals in Hollywood history when he signed on to play the Joker. Instead of taking a typical salary, he negotiated a percentage of the film’s total earnings. Thanks to the movie’s explosive success at the box office, that decision paid off in a big way. </p>



<p>Nicholson reportedly earned around 60 million dollars from “Batman,” a staggering amount for the time. When adjusted for inflation, that paycheck would be worth well over 140 million today, making it one of the most lucrative acting deals ever made.</p>

<p>Before Kim Basinger stepped into the role of Vicki Vale, Michelle Pfeiffer was briefly considered for the part. At the time, she was dating Michael Keaton, and the idea of working together as romantic leads made him uncomfortable. Keaton expressed concerns about the potential awkwardness, and Pfeiffer never auditioned. </p>



<p>Ironically, just a few years later—after their relationship had ended—she would join him in “Batman Returns” as Selina Kyle, delivering a career-defining performance as Catwoman.</p>

<p>Wearing the Batsuit was more than just a physical challenge for Michael Keaton. It was a psychological one. The rigid costume was so tight and enclosed that he could barely hear while wearing it. For someone with claustrophobia, it could have been unbearable. </p>



<p>Instead, Keaton used the sensation to his advantage. The isolation helped him tap into Batman’s inner world, making the character feel more distant and withdrawn. As Keaton put it, the suit forced him to go inward, which was exactly how he envisioned the Dark Knight.</p>

<p>The iconic Batmobile was a true Frankenstein’s monster of automotive design. Built on the chassis of a Chevrolet Impala, it featured the engine from the same model. Its tail lights came from a Ferrari, while the fuel caps were borrowed from a London double-decker bus. </p>

In a quirky detail, art director Terry Ackland-Snow added headlights from a Honda Civic after spotting them on his wife’s car, proving that even Gotham’s most famous vehicle was made from surprisingly everyday pieces.</p>

<p>When “Psycho” premiered on June 16, 1960, audiences had never seen anything like it. <strong>Alfred Hitchcock’s black and white thriller broke every rule in the book,</strong> killing off its star early, showing shocking violence, and diving deep into psychological horror in a way that was unheard of at the time.</p>



<p>More than six decades later, “Psycho” is not just a classic. It is a foundation of modern horror, with its influence echoing through everything from low-budget slashers to elevated psychological thrillers. <strong>These 10 films owe a debt to Hitchcock’s masterpiece.</strong></p>



<h2>Halloween (1978)</h2>

<p>John Carpenter has never been shy about the influence of “Psycho” on “Halloween,” even casting Janet Leigh’s daughter, Jamie Lee Curtis, in the lead role. The film mirrors Psycho’s minimalist score, point-of-view shots, and theme of evil lurking in everyday places. Carpenter’s masked killer Michael Myers, like Norman Bates, is both terrifying and enigmatic—silent, repressed, and lethal.</p>



<h2>The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974)</h2>

<p>Tobe Hooper’s grim nightmare shares the same sense of implication and restraint found in “Psycho”. While far more graphic in tone, it creates dread through suggestion and silence. Leatherface, like Norman, is shaped by isolation, disturbing family dynamics, and a house that seems alive with secrets.</p>



<h2>Dressed to Kill (1980)</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/spen/full/SPEN_20250616_SPEN_70524_Psycho3-1024x576_7f026c18.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="" class="wp-image-70528" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/16181726/Psycho3-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/16181726/Psycho3-300x169.jpg 300w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/16181726/Psycho3-768x432.jpg 768w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/16181726/Psycho3-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/16181726/Psycho3-740x416.jpg 740w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/16181726/Psycho3-490x275.jpg 490w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/16181726/Psycho3-250x140.jpg 250w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/16181726/Psycho3.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Source: IMDb</figcaption></figure>



<p>Brian De Palma’s stylish thriller pays direct homage to “Psycho” by killing off a central character midway and echoing themes of voyeurism and repressed identity. Instead of hiding his influences, De Palma modernizes them with his signature visual flair and controversial twists.</p>



<h2>Friday the 13th (1980)</h2>

<p>This iconic slasher hides its killer until the end, just as Hitchcock did. Pamela Voorhees’s murderous rampage is rooted in a disturbing maternal bond, closely mirroring the twisted emotional core explored in “Psycho”.</p>



<h2>The Silence of the Lambs (1991)</h2>

<p>Buffalo Bill carries clear echoes of Norman Bates, from his troubled relationship with identity to the eerie domestic setting he inhabits. While Hannibal Lecter commands the spotlight, the film’s deeper horror is rooted in the psychological complexity that “Psycho” first introduced to mainstream audiences.</p>



<h2>Scream (1996)</h2>

<p>Wes Craven’s horror classic opens with the shocking death of its most famous actress, a direct nod to “Psycho”. Like Hitchcock’s film, it plays with audience expectations, blending suspense with sudden violence to keep viewers constantly off-balance.</p>

<p>Ari Aster’s debut film uses grief, family trauma, and a deeply disturbing narrative structure to create lasting unease. Its early plot twists and psychological focus are clear descendants of what Hitchcock achieved with “Psycho”.</p>



<h2>American Psycho (2000)</h2>

<p>Though satirical and set in a very different world, this film shares thematic DNA with Hitchcock’s classic. Patrick Bateman, like Norman Bates, is a man hiding his psychosis behind a carefully constructed persona, revealing horror through repression and control.</p>



<h2>Maniac (1980)</h2>

<p>William Lustig’s character study follows a deranged killer in New York who speaks to mannequins as if they were his mother. The film takes the fractured-mind motif introduced in “Psycho” and cranks it up to disturbing new levels. Like Norman Bates, the main character is both pitiful and terrifying, driven by unresolved trauma linked to a domineering maternal figure.</p>

<p>Nicolas Pesce’s black-and-white debut channels the eerie quiet and psychological isolation that made “Psycho” so haunting. Its minimalist dialogue, sparse setting, and fixation on familial trauma echo Hitchcock’s method of using silence and space to build tension. The lead character’s chilling calmness in the face of horrific acts recalls Norman’s unnerving duality.</p>

<p>The original “How to Train Your Dragon 2” introduced audiences to a more mature Hiccup, now 20 years old, as he reunites with his long-lost mother Valka and confronts the villainous Drago Bludvist, who seeks to control dragons through force. Praised for its stunning visuals, compelling characters, and emotional storytelling, the film struck a chord with both fans and critics, <strong>earning over $600 million worldwide and several prestigious awards.</strong></p>



<p>But the story doesn’t end there. The trilogy’s final chapter, “How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World,” took the saga even further, <strong>following Hiccup as he searches for a mythical sanctuary for dragons while facing a deadly new enemy. </strong>Beyond the pictures, the franchise has expanded with a heartfelt short film and a popular animated series set centuries later.</p>



<p>With this rich legacy behind it, the upcoming live-action sequel has a high bar to meet—but early buzz suggests it’s poised to bring a fresh, immersive experience to longtime fans and newcomers alike. If the first live-action title’s success is any indication, <strong>the next installment could soar to great heights.</strong></p>

<p>The year 2024 had a slate of highly anticipated movies, promising thrilling narratives, groundbreaking visuals, and the return of beloved franchises. However, as the release dates passed and critical and audience reviews poured in, it became clear that not every buzzed-about title would deliver on its hype. From ambitious sequels that couldn’t recapture their original magic to big-budget spectacles that fell flat</p>



<h2>Fly Me to the Moon</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="680" height="435" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/spen/full/SPEN_20250612_SPEN_70404_AA1wUAc0_e6c8fd3d.webp&amp;width=680&amp;height=435" alt="" class="wp-image-70405" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/12124907/AA1wUAc0.jpg 680w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/12124907/AA1wUAc0-300x192.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px"></figure><figcaption>IMDb</figcaption></figure>



<p>Fly Me to the Moon was a romantic comedy that, in theory, had everything to succeed. Its simple premise about two lost souls on a flight to the moon was a solid foundation for a charming story. However, the film turned out to be a disappointment, as it failed to connect with the audience or offer anything unique or fresh.</p>



<p>While the script aimed to be light and entertaining, it felt forced at several points. The criticism was harsh, accusing the film of being a mere repetition of formulas already seen in other romantic comedies. </p>



<h2>Joker: Folie á Deux</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="680" height="435" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/spen/full/SPEN_20250612_SPEN_70404_AA1ylpOH_bbcbc1ba.webp&amp;width=680&amp;height=435" alt="" class="wp-image-70406" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/12124949/AA1ylpOH.jpg 680w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/12124949/AA1ylpOH-300x192.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px"></figure><figcaption>IMDb</figcaption></figure>



<p>Joker: Folie à Deux was the sequel to one of the most acclaimed films of 2019, starring Joaquin Phoenix. However, despite the anticipation, this sequel failed to live up to the high expectations set by its predecessor. Directed once again by Todd Phillips, the film took the bold move of incorporating musical elements, which surprised fans.</p>



<p>While Phoenix’s performance was well received, the plot and tone were seen as an attempt to expand a story that didn’t need further development. The box office performance was not as successful as expected, grossing $207.5 million, far from the $1.079 billion achieved by the first film.</p>



<h2>Dune: Prophecy</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="680" height="435" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/spen/full/SPEN_20250612_SPEN_70404_AA1wUtHa_da93ba91.webp&amp;width=680&amp;height=435" alt="" class="wp-image-70407" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/12125512/AA1wUtHa.jpg 680w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/12125512/AA1wUtHa-300x192.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px"></figure><figcaption>IMDb</figcaption></figure>



<p>Dune: Prophecy, the series based on the Dune universe, has sparked mixed reactions since its release. While the plot focuses on the origins of the Bene Gesserit Sisterhood, established 10,000 years before the main saga’s events, it has failed to capture the anticipated impact.</p>



<p>On one hand, the performances, especially those of Emily Watson and Olivia Williams, have been praised, with critics highlighting the complexity of their characters. The atmosphere created through the production design has also been a plus. However, the irregular pacing and confusing narrative have been pointed out by many as obstacles to a more satisfying experience. Some fans and critics have found the plot difficult to follow.</p>



<h2>Madame Web</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="680" height="435" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/spen/full/SPEN_20250612_SPEN_70404_AA1wUp6c_344bf8b4.webp&amp;width=680&amp;height=435" alt="" class="wp-image-70408" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/12125730/AA1wUp6c.jpg 680w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/12125730/AA1wUp6c-300x192.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px"></figure><figcaption>IMDb</figcaption></figure>



<p>Madame Web was one of the most anticipated titles for Spider-Man universe fans, especially due to its focus on one of the most mysterious characters in the comics. However, the film turned out to be a major flop.</p>



<p>Despite a promising cast with Dakota Johnson and Sydney Sweeney, the film failed to connect with audiences and was considered one of the worst Marvel adaptations on the big screen.</p>



<h2>Back to Black</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="680" height="435" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/spen/full/SPEN_20250612_SPEN_70404_AA1ACKtB_dd2e7e47.webp&amp;width=680&amp;height=435" alt="" class="wp-image-70409" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/12130519/AA1ACKtB.jpg 680w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/12130519/AA1ACKtB-300x192.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px"></figure><figcaption>IMDb</figcaption></figure>



<p>Back to Black, the biopic of Amy Winehouse starring Marisa Abela, was expected to be a work that would delve into the life and music of the singer. However, the film was widely criticized for failing to capture the complexity of Winehouse’s persona.</p>



<p>The box office was also low, with the movie grossing only $50 million.</p>

Movies From 2024 That Failed to Live Up to Expectations

Movies From 2024 That Failed to Live Up to Expectations - Spoiler US



        


<p>Few stories have haunted the holiday season quite like “A Christmas Carol.” Since Charles Dickens first penned the tale in 1843, the transformation of Ebenezer Scrooge from bitter miser to humbled soul <strong>has remained one of literature’s most enduring redemptions. </strong></p>



<p><strong>The story has been reimagined across generations</strong>, from Alastair Sim’s chilling 1951 portrayal to Bill Murray’s sardonic take in “Scrooged,” and even Robert Zemeckis’ eerie animated version starring Jim Carrey. Each adaptation offers its own glimpse into the ghosts that haunt us all.</p>



<p>Now, a new version is beginning to take shape, <strong>this time guided by the distinct vision of Robert Eggers.</strong> Known for his atmospheric and historically grounded films like “The Witch,” “The Lighthouse,” and the “Nosferatu,” Eggers may be the first filmmaker to truly lean into the gothic horror that pulses beneath Dickens’ original text.</p>



<h2>Inside the Dark New Vision for ‘A Christmas Carol’</h2>



<p>Robert Eggers appears to be setting his sights on a new frontier: Victorian London. Sources close to the early development phase reveal that the filmmaker is in talks to bring his singular sensibility<strong> to a new adaptation of “A Christmas Carol” for Warner Bros. </strong></p>



<p>While the project is still in its earliest stages, <strong>Eggers is said to be considering Willem Dafoe for the role of Scrooge,</strong> continuing a creative partnership that has spanned several atmospheric and genre-defying films.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/spen/full/SPEN_20250612_SPEN_70396_Willem2-1024x576_a011a3e0.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="" class="wp-image-70400" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/11201026/Willem2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/11201026/Willem2-300x169.jpg 300w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/11201026/Willem2-768x432.jpg 768w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/11201026/Willem2-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/11201026/Willem2-740x416.jpg 740w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/11201026/Willem2-490x275.jpg 490w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/11201026/Willem2-250x140.jpg 250w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2025/06/11201026/Willem2.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Robert Eggers and Willem Dafoe attend the after party for the Los Angeles premiere of “The Northman” at The TCL Chinese Theatre on April 18, 2022 in Hollywood, California.

<p>Eggers and Dafoe first worked together on the critically acclaimed “The Lighthouse,” where Dafoe’s weathered, monologue-heavy performance drew widespread praise. Since then, Dafoe has appeared in supporting roles in Eggers’ “The Northman” and the recently released “Nosferatu,” a surprise box office success that earned multiple Oscar nominations and solidified Eggers’ reputation as a modern master of moody, period-driven cinema. While Dafoe has not officially signed on, <strong>his presence feels almost inevitable given the duo’s history.</strong></p>



<p>If it moves forward, <strong>this would mark Eggers’ first time directing a feature for Warner Bros.,</strong> following his collaborations with A24 and Focus Features. Before tackling Dickens, however, Eggers is expected to complete “Werwulf,” a separate project currently lined up at Focus. </p>



<p>For now, “A Christmas Carol” remains in development—but with Eggers at the helm and Dafoe in the wings, this holiday tale could take on an entirely new life, <strong>steeped in shadows and psychological unease.</strong></p>
