Don't much care for DC, but this is kind of a 'holy shit' bit of industry news no? One minute they're talking the future vision of the studio, next thing... gone.
At least maybe Gunn will finally go back to making his own stuff rather than comic book media
James Gunn and Peter Safran will no longer run DC Studios.
Jeremy Latcham, who previously served as a producer at Marvel Studios, is taking over DC.

Jonathan Glazer directing this and promoting AI shit...
Joaquin Phoenix stars in a new short film promoting Gentle Monster’s upcoming AI-powered smart glasses:
• Directed by Jonathan Glazer (“The Zone of Interest”), Phoenix plays a salesman who discovers his smart glasses allow him to communicate with mysterious figures inside a hotel
• The campaign comes as fashion and tech companies race to make AI-powered eyewear mainstream, with Meta, Google and luxury brands investing in the technology.

Everyone else is doing it, so my De Palma ranking. The best part? Not a single one of these is nearing 'bad'. everything down from Femme Fatale to Redacted are near-equal unimpeachable masterworks, Untouchables to Woton's excellent, the rest great/very interesting
Holy fucking shit its actually happening. Pino Donaggio back doing the score too? Most hyped picture of this decade worldofreel.com/blog/2026/11…

Motivos para que el mundo no se acabe todavía: parece que De Palma tiene filmada (!) nueva película.
«¿Estás libre en febrero?», eso le ha dicho el cineasta a Donaggio, lo que suele traducirse en que le va a enseñar un corte para que se ponga a componer.

In CARRIE (1976), Brian De Palma based Carrie's posture and walk at the end of the film after Gustave Moreau's 1851 painting The Study of Lady Macbeth.

This is a very good piece and I hope people actually read it bc as an ex critic turned filmmaker who loves both mediums I am a proponent of the critic artist fight that many call bullying. I like the rules of engagement David puts forth! Use their names! Keep it personal!
i wrote about Taika Waititi's delusional and embarrassing Instagram post, and how it reflects a deeper problem about the impacts of social media on the entire artistic ecosystem:

‘Carrie’ at 50: how Brian De Palma’s descent into repression, violence, and religious fanaticism changed cinema forever
To wade into this discourse with the Correct Answer: the next generation of filmmakers can neither write well enough or are conscious enough of the camera/the images. Both are a problem!

We got your back, New York!
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Several figures here aren’t federal results or NY-specific. The $472B combines US wide pledges: Micron's $250B is nationwide (NY site $100B) Anthropic's $50B covers TX and NY. The 48% murder drop is from NY's state run GIVE program (28 departments, Jan – May 2026).

look what you've done. you've hurt john goodman's feelings. is that what you want to do with your one precious life? hurt john goodman's feelings?
John Goodman opened up about how the negative reviews for Digger HURT him, saying critics practically KILLED the movie before it even opened, but he still hopes it finds an audience over time like The Big Lebowski and Speed Racer 👀
“Yeah, it hurt. They kind of killed us before we opened. ‘This will only make $5,’ and it’s a good reason for people to avoid it. I’m proud of it, and I had a ball doing it.”
