On Tuesday, there was a report that there was going to be a sequel to The Holiday, but Nancy Meyers, who wrote and directed the film, quickly denied it.
Yesterday, she went on Today and explained why it is not going to happen. “I’ve been asked to make a sequel a couple of times, you know. And I think about it. And I think it is good just the way it is. I don’t know how I won’t disappoint,” she said. “It was just a moment in time for all of them. And for me.”
So if you are disappointed by the news that there won’t be a sequel, you have to ask yourself, is it better not to have a sequel or have a sequel that never should’ve been made?
And that brings us to Rush Hour 4. Jackie Chan revealed today at the Red Sea International Film Festival in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, that he and Chris Tucker are in talks to make a fourth movie, according to Variety.
Before Reese Witherspoon was Legally Blonde, she would do anything to win an Election. However, she can win a sequel at Paramount+. The Hollywood Reporter says that the streaming service is in talks to make Tracy Flick Can’t Win, a sequel to the movie based on the book that came out this year.
I think if they had a vote to see if we wanted this movie, it would’ve been as popular as Kim Kardashian’s ex-husband was when he ran for President.
And finally, there is Wonder Woman 3. Yesterday, there was a report that James Gunn passed on making a third Wonder Woman film with Gal Gadot and Patty Jenkins, and today he addressed the rumors.
“So. As for the story yesterday in the Hollywood Reporter, some of it is true, some of it is half-true, some of it is not true, & some of it we haven’t decided yet whether it’s true or not,” he wrote. “Although this first month at DC has been fruitful, building the next ten years of story takes time & we’re still just beginning. Peter & I chose to helm DC Studios knowing we were coming into a fractious environment, both in the stories being told & in the audience itself & there would be an unavoidable transitional period as we moved into telling a cohesive story across film, TV, animation, and gaming. But, in the end, the drawbacks of that transitional period were dwarfed by the creative possibilities & the opportunity to build upon what has worked in DC so far & to help rectify what has not. But, in the end, the drawbacks of that transitional period were dwarfed by the creative possibilities & the opportunity to build upon what has worked in DC so far & to help rectify what has not. We know we are not going to make every single person happy every step of the way, but we can promise everything we do is done in the service of the STORY & in the service of the DC CHARACTERS we know you cherish and we have cherished our whole lives. As for more answers about the future of the DCU, I will sadly have to ask you to wait. We are giving these characters & the stories the time & attention they deserve & we ourselves still have a lot more questions to ask & answer.”
Let’s be honest. DC Studios needs to rework its strategy because its movies are not as good as Marvel’s pictures. They are too dark, both visually and thematically.
Fans loved Wonder Woman with Gal Gadot in the title role. However, the same could not be said for the sequel Wonder Woman: 1984.
Therefore, today’s news from The Hollywood Reporter should come as no surprise. James Gunn and Peter Safran, the new heads of DC Studios, have passed on Patty Jenkins’ treatment for a third film.
The trade also added that it is still uncertain if Gadot will still be doing cameos in future DC Universe movies. But, the actress might’ve answered that question yesterday by posting a photo as Diana Prince and writing, “A few years ago it was announced that I was going to play Wonder Woman. I’ve been so grateful for the opportunity to play such an incredible, iconic character and more than anything I’m grateful for YOU. The fans. Can’t wait to share her next chapter with you🙅🏻♀️🙌🏼💃🏻♥️”
Gunn and Safran are still trying to figure out the direction they are going to take the studio, but as of now, it does not seem to include solo movies for their two female superheroes, Wonder Woman and Batgirl. And as a woman, I think that sucks more than Batman vs Superman.
It has not been a good year for some of the actors in the DC Universe. Therefore, Fake Movie Details came up with a film just for them.
The Career Suicide Squad stars Will Smith as the Deadshot, known for his slaps. Ezra Miller as The Flash, who runs away from cops as he grooms young girls. And finally, Amber Heard as Mera, who poops in your bed.
Would you go see these villains in another Superhero movie? I would if the writers made fun of their personal lives in the feature. I bet it would be DC’s biggest movie if they were brave enough to do it.
The first trailer is out for Black Adam, and The Rock is not your typical superhero. He is still DJ, but he is Godlike now.
Find out on October 21st if he will be our destroyer or our savior. I think he will be the latter, but he will cause a lot of destruction getting there.
When it comes to the movie in general, I think it will be a PG-13 version of Deadpool. And, that is fine with me.
Oh, and it is nice that DC Universe is finally doing a movie that is light, as in it would be so dark I can’t see what is going on on the screen. Am I the only person who hates that?
Even though The CW just started its season, they already know which shows they want back in the Fall. They are All American, Batwoman, Charmed, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, Dynasty, The Flash, In The Dark, Legacies, Nancy Drew, Riverdale, Roswell, New Mexico, and Walker.
“Though we’re just a few weeks into the new season, we wanted to get a strategic head start on next season with these early renewals, which allows our production teams to start laying out story arcs and hiring staff, and at the same time, continues to provide us with a strong, stable schedule to build on for next season,” said Mark Pedowitz, Chairman and CEO, The CW Network.
It has already been announced that this will be Supergirl and Black Lightning’s final season.
Another show not on the list is Superman & Lois, which debuts on February 23rd. However, that DC Arrowvers show and Walker both got additional episodes for this season.
