Filmiere.com doesn’t forget comic book fans and brings you the information about the new “Spider-Man” movie. Benedict Cumberbatch had been part of MCU as Doctor Strange for a while and his performance gained acclaim from critics and fans alike.

The move puts Cumberbatch in the mentor role that was previously occupied by Robert Downey Jr.’s Tony Stark and Samuel L. Jackson’s Nick Fury. But since they’re supposed to be no part of MCU anymore (though Downey will appear in “Black Widow” and Jackson will be on TV shows), now it’s Cumberbatch’s turn as Doctor Strange to play the mentor part.

This Spider-Man project already has some unexpected ties going for it, as it is bringing back Jamie Foxx as Electro, the actor-character combo last seen in 2014’s “The Amazing Spider-Man 2”, which featured Andrew Garfield as the web-slinging hero. J.K. Simmons will also reprise his role from Sam Raimi’s trilogy.

“Spider-Man 3” is due to begin shooting in Atlanta later in October while “Multiverse of Madness” is also expected to begin shooting this month, although in London.

It is unclear when and where Cumberbatch will shoot his scenes. In a case you forget, the new Doctor Strange movie is actually directed by Sam Raimi who also directed the famous first “Spider-Man” trilogy.

Nadine Labaki is one of Lebanon’s leading cinema figures. Her film-making career began in 2007 after the release of her debut film, Caramel, which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival and her subsequent works gained notice for her portrayal of everyday life in Lebanon, alongside the problems in Lebanese society.

Her recent film “Capernaum” was a major box office success internationally and got an Oscar nom for Best Film in Foreign Language. Now Filmiere.com reports based on Variety that she uses her camera for a different reason:

Less than two months after Beirut was blasted by one of the biggest non-nuclear explosions ever recorded, she has taken to the streets of the Lebanese capital with her camera. She wants Lebanon’s leaders to be held accountable, and she’s calling for an international probe into the “man-made” disaster.

Hopefully, her investigation will result in more facts to come out of the tragedy and more guilty people to face charges but also maybe she’ll deliver her work into a documentary or feature film. We will wait and see.

Eshon and Ian Nelms brothers already proved their talent with acclaimed neo-noir  “Small Town Crime”. Now they’re back with another possibly violent film with a lot of black comedy undertones. Filmiere.com also informs you that the trailer for the film is now out and you can check it out.

Danny McBride and David Gordon Green serve as executive producers on the project where Mel Gibson plays an unorthodox Santa Claus.

If it already sounds interesting, then there is more. Fatman centers on a neglected and precocious 12-year-old who hires a hitman (portrayed by acclaimed actor Walton Goggins) to kill Santa Claus after receiving a lump of coal in his stocking.

The premise is certainly wild and the movie seems not over-the-top despite the subject material. Yet you can watch the trailer and judge for yourself.

It’s long been anticipated. David Fincher goes back to biopics after “Zodiac” and “The Social Network”. Gary Oldman, Amanda Seyfried, and Lily Collins star, the theme is how “Citizen Kane” was born with the perspective put on its co-writer.

But before that, it’ll premiere on several selected theatres as it’s almost a typical thing with Netflix’s awards season films. The runtime is expected to be 2 hours and 11 minutes.  The teaser is also out where it shows some very gorgeous-looking images, a bit similar to the “Citizen Kane” style.

Robert Zemeckis-directed, Guillermo del Toro-written, and Alfonso Cuaron-produced “The Witches” goes to HBO Max, an unexpected move from Warner Bros. It’s promoted as a “Halloween surprise” for the fans of the novel which was adapted into a much critically acclaimed movie in 1990 by Nicholas Roeg, starring Anjelica Huston.

However some fans are wondering if it’s because the quality of the movie is cheap, so they didn’t have much faith in the material, to begin with. While theatre experience won’t be here for fans, at least they’ll manage to enjoy the film this year.

The trailer is out and the movie stars a lot of big names including Anne Hathaway, Octavia Spencer, and Stanley Tucci.

Billie Eilish wrote and performed a song for the new James Bond film “No Time to Die” early this year and it got mostly positive reception with some calling it as the possible frontrunner for Best Original Song Oscar next year.

The video released for the song was only lyrics on display, similar to some other recent Bond tracks. But since the movie has postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic, the studio probably wanted to bring the song to attention again and of course, promote the film through it.

So we got a mostly black-and-white music video where Eilish elegantly performs the song with some footage from the upcoming film. Eilish herself is the youngest person to write and perform a Bond song.  However a day after the release of the video, the movie re-scheduled again.

The film, starring Daniel Craig in his final stint as the agent formerly known as 007, is expected to hit theaters April 2, 2021, a year later than initially planned.

Back in March, “No Time to Die” was the first major tentpole to shift its release date before the global health crisis caused by coronavirus could even be classified as a pandemic. After its first delay, the movie was set to premiere in the U.K. on Nov. 12 and in North America on Nov. 20.

Guy Ritchie’s ‘The Gentlemen’ remains as one of the team’s highest-grossing films of the year. Even though it’s not much of an achievement given current conditions, the movie is seemingly very beloved based on internet ratings.

Critics hadn’t been too kind to Ritchie but they also admit that it’s one of his better efforts with much praise given to performances of Hugh Grant and Colin Farrell. The project started as a TV series before turning into a movie and now Ritchie decided to make a TV series out of the movie.

He’ll direct, write, and produce the miniseries. It’s unknown if any of the original members will be back to Miramax TV production. Miramax Television is thrilled to break new creative ground in our partnership with Guy Ritchie on The Gentlemen,” said Marc Helwig, head of the company.

“One of the most distinctive and prolific filmmakers working today and someone whose creativity I have admired for many years, we couldn’t be more excited to bring the cinematic journey of The Gentlemen forth into the realm of global premium television.”

More exciting news for the fans will be brought by Filmiere.com. The original film also starred Matthew McConaughey, Charlie Hunnam, Jeremy Strong, Michelle Dockey, and Henry Golding alongside already mentioned Grant and Farrell.

British auteur director Mike Leigh is loved for his films, for his naturalistic dialogue but he’s also known for his versatility. Those who wanted to see his new movie will have to wait a little longer, Filmiere.com reports.

“Francis and The Godfather” is coming, a new movie directed by Barry Levinson on the making of Godfather with two stars already attached to the project: Oscar Isaac to play legendary director himself Francis Ford Coppola, while Jake Gyllenhaal will play iconic producer Robert Evans.

Coppola himself gave his blessings by saying that he’s happy with whatever Levinson makes, Filmiere.com reports. It follows an announcement that Paramount+ (formerly CBS All Access) is moving ahead with an original drama series about the making of “The Godfather” titled “The Offer.”

With the recent announcement of Ben Affleck’s plan to make a film about the making of “Chinatown”, it seems exploring how “New Hollywood” is made is the new trend. Stars are obviously exciting even if Levinson’s recent track is inconsistent.

The film is officially titled “Francis and The Godfather” and is based on a script by Andrew Farotte that made The Black List. Per Deadline, Echo Lake Entertainment’s Mike Marcus, Doug Mankoff, and Andrew Spaulding are producing with Kevin Turen, Jon Levin, and Baltimore Pictures’ Jason Sosnoff.
