About this episode
This week on the show, we’re diving into the biggest headlines from Hollywood. First up, Spider-Man: Brand New Day swings into the record books with the best pre-sales in five years—will Brand New Day be the biggest box office hit of the year ahead of Avengers: Doomsday? Then, filmmaker Curry Barker sets his sights on his next original project at Universal Pictures with a high eight figure deal. We also break down Focus Features’ early Oscar campaign plans for Obsession, and the surprising news that Amazon MGM has dropped Luca Guadagnino’s nearly finished Sam Altman film about an AI CEO. Plus, a sequel to How The Grinch Stole Christmas is in development, and Jim Carrey is reportedly in talks to return. Tune in for all the details and our takes!
