I wish this movie hit some festivals, but anyways, I'm happy and excited

Venice Boss on Paul Thomas Anderson’s Absence: “I Never Got a Clear Response from Warner Bros”

Of all the films arriving this fall, “One Battle After Another” is the one I’m most looking forward to. Why? Because it’s directed by Paul Thomas Anderson — arguably the greatest American filmmaker of the past 25 years.

A few weeks back, I reported how “One Battle After Another” opted to bypass all the major fall festivals, including Venice, Telluride, and Toronto.

Still, the move no doubt raised some eyebrows. With a reported $150M+ price tag and Anderson’s name above the title, “One Battle After Another” had all the makings of a Lido splash. Skipping the fall circuit has inevitably left a vacuum, and invited speculation.

A recent interview with Venice Film Festival chief Alberto Barbera seems to have further muddied the waters; He’s telling ScreenDaily that Anderson and Warner Bros. were not very forthcoming in their replies after he requested to screen the film.

We succeeded in getting most of the films we wanted. The only one that we are really missing you can say easily is the Paul Thomas Anderson film […] I have to confess I couldn’t get a clear response either from him or from Warner Bros about the fact that I was wishing to see the film. This is the only missing film that I regret not being able to show.

Meanwhile, speaking with Deadline, Barbera admits that Warner Bros ghosting him might have to do with a hybrid of reasons, but he’s still puzzled by their lack of engagement:

It’s probably a combination of factors. I don’t think Paul loves to travel with his movies. Perhaps the ‘Joke’r experience was a factor, I don’t know. You’ll need to ask Warners. It’s true that bringing it here would have been very expensive.

Is the film unfinished? Possibly. Is WB still smarting from last year’s “Joker: Folie à Deux” fiasco in Venice? Probably. Or maybe Anderson himself simply doesn’t care for the festival grind anymore, and a quiet release, on his own terms, is maybe what he prefers.

Neither Warner Bros. nor Anderson’s camp are commenting. But, make no mistake, skipping the fall fests means deliberately avoiding the oxygen of early buzz, critical discourse, and awards momentum. That’s a risky move when you’re launching such a pricey film, one filled with talent, including Leonardo DiCaprio, and helmed by one of the truly great filmmakers around.

It remains to be seen if this strategy will likely pay off for Warner Bros. “One Battle After Another” opens wide on September 26.

Martin Scorsese’s Movie With Dwayne Johnson & Leonardo DiCaprio Gets Exciting Update

What’s the latest update on Martin Scorsese’s movie?

According to a new report from World of Reel, Scorsese — who has several projects in the works — has “no plans” to film a movie this year. The report mentions that Scorsese is “waiting it out” in 2025, but that there are plans for Scorsese to step back behind the camera early next year, where he’ll film the mysterious Hawaii-set crime film.

Alongside Johnson and DiCaprio, the movie is also reported to star Emily Blunt.

Scorsese will be directing the upcoming movie from a screenplay written by Nick Bilton. It will be produced by Scorsese, Johnson, Emily Blunt, DiCaprio, Bilton, Dany Garcia, Lisa Frechette and Rick Yorn. At the moment, the project has no official title, production start date, and release date yet.

The movie is said to focus on a “ruthless Hawaiian crime boss” who is based on a real-life figure. A description from Deadline’s original report on the film notes that it will be set in “a turbulent time on the island paradise when an aspiring mob boss battled rival crime factions to wrest control of the underworld of the Hawaiian islands.”

“In 1960s and 70s Hawaii, this formidable and charismatic mob boss rises to build the islands’ most powerful criminal empire, waging a brutal war against mainland corporations and rival syndicates while fighting to preserve his ancestral land,” reads more of the description. “It’s based on the untold true story of a man who fought to preserve his homeland through a ruthless quest for absolute power — igniting the last great American mob saga, where the war for cultural survival takes place in the unlikeliest of places: paradise.”

Leonardo DiCaprio in Talks for Michael Mann’s ‘Heat 2’ as Budget Circles $170M, Warner Bros-Apple Co-Finance?

I’ve been tracking this one for over a year now, and it’s about time someone caught up. Michael Mann’s long-gestating “Heat 2,” a prequel to his legendary 1995 crime saga, is still very much having money issues.

Last year, I reported that Warner Bros. were getting cold feet to fund the $150M+ Mann was asking for. As recently as last month, I noted that casting had finally begun, and that WB was back in talks. Now we’re getting a more details of what’s going on behind the scenes.

According to Puck‘s Matt Belloni, Mann’s original budget landed north of $200M, a number that gave Warners serious pause. Since then, he’s reportedly shaved it down to around $170M, which, frankly, is still too steep for the studio to greenlight solo. Keep in mind, the original Heat made $187M worldwide back in ’95—that’s nearly $400M adjusted for inflation—but Mann’s more recent films (“Blackhat,” “Ferrari”) haven’t exactly lit up the box office.

Still, WB execs Mike De Luca and Pam Abdy are said to want to make the film happen. The current thinking is: bring in a co-financing partner. Enter Apple, which has received the script and is reportedly considering coming aboard.

However, here’s the kicker—and it’s a big one: Leonardo DiCaprio has been in talks with Mann about starring. Nothing signed, just yet. But if he commits, this becomes a different conversation entirely. A DiCaprio-led “Heat 2” suddenly looks a lot more like a global event film, and that might be enough to make this film happen.

Mann, now 81, has spent the last few years carefully building the foundation for “Heat 2,” a dual prequel-sequel hybrid based on his 2022 novel co-written with Meg Gardiner. The book charted the early days of Neil McCauley (played by Robert De Niro in the original) and Vincent Hanna (Al Pacino), while also following Hanna’s hunt for a new threat in the aftermath of the original film’s climactic shootout.

The timeline for this thing? Still fluid. Mann wants to shoot in 2025, likely for a late 2026 release. I’ll have more on “Heat 2” as it develops.
