Christopher Nolan Thinks So - Michael Bay Sets '6 Underground' and 'Robopocalypse' as His Next Two Projects - New 'The Grinch' Poster Reveals Loyal Companion Max; Scott Mosier Is Co-Directing - 'Ready Player One' Character Posters Reveal the Avatars - 'Slither' Alumni Elizabeth Banks and James Gunn Reunite for Untitled Horror Pic - Live Twitter Questions In a Deadline interview with Christopher Nolan, the trade asked what movie he thought would be a sure bet for a Best Picture nomination at next year's Oscar ceremony. Starting the hype early now, Nolan predicted that it would be Black Panther that would be nominated for best picture, which would finally be the first Superhero 'Best Picture' movie to be considered. In a report from Variety, it looks like Michael Bay will not be dipping his toes in the waters of DC anytime soon. The trade reports that the director has solidified his next two projects - the first being the action movie called 6 Underground, which is based on a screenplay by Zombieland and Deadpool screenwriters Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick. After that, Bay is back to killer robots, with the director eyeing Robopocalypse, which is based on the book by Daniel Wilson. Universal Pictures and Illumination Entertainment have unveiled a new The Grinch movie poster and first trailer for the upcoming animated film. The new adaptation of the Dr. Seuss classic comes from the studio that brought us Despicable Me and The Lorax, with The Secret Life of Pets co-director Yarrow Cheney and Clerks and Chasing Amy producer Scott Mosier at the helm. The Ready Player One movie's marketing campaign has hit the "character posters" stage and released a set of new posters featuring the main characters as their avatars in the movie. Ready Player One follows Wade Watts (Tye Sheridan), an unlikely hero in the virtual world of the OASIS where he and anyone else can be whomever they want. It was announced yesterday that Elizabeth Banks has signed on as the lead in an Untitled Horror Project produced by James Gunn and The H Collective; with The Hive director David Yarovesky behind the camera.

In a new interview with EW, Andy Serkis revealed that there was actually a lot of discussion about Snoke and his backstory, leading up to The last Jedi, and some of that story could be used in the future. According to a report from Deadline, Fox has just made a deal for the rights to Epoch Index, a short story/novella by Christian Cantrell that has Rampage's Brad Peyton attached to direct, with Matt Reeves on board as a producer. The logline reads: A CIA analyst is tasked with tracking down a flashy assassin whose targets are seemingly random. According to a recent report from Omega Underground, Top Gun 2, currently known as Top Gun: Maverick, is set to begin filming this summer. Reports had mentioned that Tom Cruise was up as one of the male leads in Quentin Tarantino's Manson movie but that deal never solidified as Cruise will be busy with Top Gun 2.

Bahous made the claim over the weekend via a Facebook post that was set to public, but was changed to private on Monday morning. The Hollywood Reporter took a screenshot before the page was changed, which shows Solo artwork next to Bahous' album covers. THR reports that Warner Bros. decided to move up Dwayne Johnson's video game adaptation Rampage from April 20 to April 13, with sources for the outlet saying the move is a response to Disney moving Avengers: Infinity War from May 4 to April 27.

On this episode of Collider Movie Talk (Friday, March 2nd, 2018) Kristian Harloff, Clarke Wolfe, Dennis Tzeng, and John Rocha discuss the following: 1) 'Avengers: Infinity War' Release Date Moves Up One Week to April + 6 New Marvel Movies Dated 2) Bruce Willis Confirms Die Hard 6 Still in the Works 3) Danny Boyle, Richard Curtis Team for Universal Comedy; Bond 25 in Question 4) 'Dope' Filmmaker Tackling 'Black Hole' Adaptation 5) Live Twitter Questions Avengers: Infinity War will now debut in theatres on April 27th, a week before its earlier launch date of May 4. The move means that the comic book blockbuster will worldwide on the same day, reducing the possibility of spoilers and likely giving a little breathing room between that Marvel release and Solo: A Star Wars Story, which will not open one month later. Bruce Willis recently appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon where he confirmed that DIE HARD 6 is still in the works - confirming that the new script is done and he'll be flying out to California to check it out. The previous report for the sixth Die Hard was described as YEAR ONE, in which it's both a prequel and a sequel with most of the action taking place in the late 70s', back when John McClane was "a cop in gritty New York City." According to THR, Danny Boyle and Love Actually screenwriter Richard Curtis have teamed up for an untitled music-inspired comedy at Universal. Details are being kept under wraps except it is known to be musically themed and set in the 1960s or '70s. Universal is eying a shoot for as early as summer if casting can come together. THR reports that a film version of the cult graphic novel Black Hole by Charles Burns is in the works with Dope director and one time Flash director Rick Famuyiwa set to helm. Black Hole follows a group of high schoolers who contract a mysterious, sexually transmitted disease known as "the Bug."

Sony Pictures announced the new title and actors, with the logline describing it as "a story that takes place in Los Angeles in 1969, at the height of hippy Hollywood."

On this episode of Collider Movie Talk (Wednesday, February 28th, 2018) Mark Ellis, Clarke Wolfe, Jon Schnepp, and Mark Reilly discuss the following: 1) 'Solo: A Star Wars Story' Timeline Places It Before 'Rogue One' 2) James Gunn Reveals Baby Groot Is Actually Groot's Son 3) Boyd Holbrook in Talks to Write, Star in Thriller 'The Thirst' at Fox 4) 'Imitation Game' Writer Sets Directorial Debut With Female-Led Futuristic 5) 'Shazam!': Here's Your First, Unofficial, Shitty Look at Zachary Levi in Costume 6) Live Twitter Questions A new timeline has been revealed by Del Rey Books, the official publication line for Disney's Star Wars novelizations, and it gives us a good idea of when the upcoming Ron Howard movie Solo: A Star Wars Story takes place. As THR pointed out, and as the timeline suggests, the events of Solo will take place before both Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and the ongoing adventures of Disney's animated series Star Wars Rebels. An interesting thing happened over on Twitter yesterday after Jedi Council and Entertainment Tonight Now's own Ash Crossnan quote-tweeted out an image of Baby Groot and a Porg, asking which one to save. Variety reports that 20th Century Fox is in talks with Logan star Boyd Holbrook for the actor to star in, write, and executive produce the futuristic thriller entitled The Thirst. Based on an original idea from Holbrook himself, the movie takes place in a world where water is scarce. THR is reporting that Studio 8 has picked up Graham Moore's sci-fi thriller Naked Is the Best Disguise, which will serve as Moore's directorial debut. The Imitation Game's writer developed the idea with Scoop Wasserstein of Scoop Productions; in a story set in the near future in which new technology allows one person's memories to be extracted and inserted into someone else. The first unofficial look at Zack Levi's Shazam! has been revealed, and it comes to us courtesy of a side-photo snapped and posted on Reddit. The image was immediately met with a ton of comments and criticism, but just as a reminder, it is an unofficial image and WB and DC Films has yet to acknowledge or confirm.

The first half of the episode is spoiler-free as we give our general thoughts about the movie, why Paramount dumped it, if the film could have been a hit like Arrival, what this release strategy means for future sci-fi movies, and more. Then in the second half we shift into spoiler talk by digging into the ending, the symbolism, and much more. We finish up with a new edition of Recently Watched.

Fuqua left the project over scheduling conflicts, with these new talks said to be "early." But Deadline notes things are looking good and progressing toward a deal. Paramount Pictures yesterday announced the official date for their upcoming Dora the Explorer live action film - now set for August 2nd, 2019. THR previously revealed that Neighbors and The Muppets writer Nicholas Stoller would be tackling scripting duties, and now it's been revealed that his Muppets helmer James Bobin has signed on to direct. Deadline reports that 'Humans' star Gemma Chan will join Brie Larson in the upcoming Captain Marvel film that is a prequel set inside the MCU. Chan will play Captain Minnerva, a geneticist and spy from the alien race Kree, and one of Marvel's antagonists; at least in the comics.
