Renowned director Francis Lawrence, recognized for his work on The Hunger Games trilogy, is set to helm the film adaptation of Stephen King's novel, The Long Walk. The storyline unfolds in a post-apocalyptic United States, where teenagers are compelled to partake in a perilous "long walk" contest along a major East Coast highway. Lawrence's background in directing dystopian narratives, exemplified by his success with The Hunger Games series, positions him as a fitting choice for this adaptation. The project, which has seen various directors over the years, gained new momentum in 2018 under New Line Cinema. Lawrence steps in to replace André Øvredal, bringing his expertise in crafting gripping dystopian horror tales to breathe new life into King's 1979 classic. The film's development, previously tumultuous, is revitalized with Lawrence's attachment, promising audiences a compelling exploration of a totalitarian empire's sinister competition. Read more

Netflix’s film chief, Scott Stuber, has revealed surprising details about Greta Gerwig’s upcoming adaptation of The Chronicles of Narnia. Contrary to the traditional one-movie-per-book approach, Gerwig aims to incorporate the entire arc of C.S. Lewis’s beloved series into her film. One would imagine that The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe would be considered an obvious choice, but Gerwig and producer Amy Pascal are exploring a narrative form that spans the entirety of the Narnia saga. The Chronicles of Narnia follows the adventures of the Pevensie children in the magical land of Narnia, offering a unique perspective on growth and maturity. Stuber highlights Gerwig’s deep connection to the Christian themes in Lewis’s books as a key factor in her selection for this ambitious project. He also confirms that the project is said to begin filming early next year. Read more

After a grueling 118-day strike, the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) have reached a tentative three-year deal, marking the end of the longest strike in SAG-AFTRA’s history. The agreement, described as “historic” includes significant wage and bonus increases, with a crucial focus on addressing concerns related to artificial intelligence (AI). Studio heads, including Ted Sarandos and Bob Iger, offered substantial protections against AI, paving the way for Hollywood to resume full-scale production within three weeks. While this marks a significant step forward, Hollywood still faces labour challenges, with VFX workers unionising at Disney and Marvel, and a potential strike looming in the video game industry. The deal signifies a hard-fought victory for over 160,000 SAG-AFTRA members and brings an end to a bitter labour dispute that began in May. Read more

Paramount Pictures is set to take another shot at remaking the classic sports comedy-drama film The Longest Yard. The original 1974 version, which earned critical acclaim and an Oscar nomination, was a delicate balance of comedy and drama, starring Burt Reynolds as Paul "Wrecking" Crewe, a former football star facing a prison sentence. In 2005, a remake directed by Peter Segal, with Adam Sandler in the lead role, took a lighter, more comedic approach and featured a star-studded cast. Despite its commercial success, Sandler publicly confessed that the remake couldn't hold a candle to the original. Now, Paramount Pictures is giving it another go, led by Gunpowder & Sky’s Van Toffler and former MTV Films boss David Gale, with Rodney Barnes penning the script. The new iteration aims to bring a fresh perspective to this prison football story, offering a unique take on a classic narrative. Read more
