Michel Franco is back in a pissed-off register about the world we live in with his crisply directed class critique “Dreams,” where the Mexican writer/director rails into the limousine liberal American one-percent identity with all the subtlety of a power drill. But the film’s quietly disturbing power lies in how Franco packages his U.S.-Mexico border metaphor — with rich philanthropist Jennifer (Jessica Chastain) and her young ballerina lover Fernando standing in for each — into an addictive and destructive love story as sharply wrought as the movie’s grander political concerns.
Chastain gives her riskiest performance in some time as a rich arts patron who encourages Fernando to cross the border illegally in order for her foundation to give an American showcase of his art. Many of Chastain’s recent movies, including her Oscar-winning “Eyes of Tammy Faye” and even Franco’s own bittersweet dementia romance “Memory,” have...

Mexican filmmaker Michel Franco has arrived in the German capital to debut his latest feature, Dreams, in competition at this year’s Berlin Film Festival.
The film is led by Oscar-winner Jessica Chastain, who joined the prolific filmmaker this afternoon at a presser for the flick. The session was politically-orientated, with most questions directed at Chastain. Early on, the Oscar winner was quizzed on political affairs in her native U.S., and her answer was resolute.
“I make my home in the U.S. because I’m a hopeful person,” Chastain said. “I believe you have to participate to create the environment, culture, and society you want. I’m not going to give up on my country. So yes, I would like to say there’s a lot of us there that are still quite hopeful, and we’re fighting the good fight.”
In Dreams, Chastain stars as wealthy San Francisco socialist and philanthropist Jennifer.

Rupert Friend is heading into the Berlinale a little anxious.
The British actor, a veteran of the industry with major roles in Homeland, Pride & Prejudice and, most recently, Drew Hancock’s buzzy thriller Companion, was only a “whip of a thing” when Chéri premiered in competition at the 2009 Berlin Film Festival.
“I was 25 and it was probably my first big lead role,” the now-43-year-old tells The Hollywood Reporter. “From the first 20 seconds, you just felt the audience… lean back. The movie finished and it was the sound of one, slow clap. I just died.”
After this “bombing” of Stephen Frears’ Colette adaptation, Friend was a little wary of the spotlight. It impacted him for a long time after, he confesses, even though he landed the part of a key character in the wildly successful Showtime series Homeland shortly after.

Cinema took over a snowy German capital on Thursday evening as the 2025 Berlin Film Festival officially kicked off with a breezy opening ceremony at the Berlinale Palast Theater.
The ceremony was much shorter than previous editions, with the bulk of the evening serving as the presentation of this year’s Honorary Bear for career achievement, which was handed to veteran actor Tilda Swinton. German filmmaker Edward Berger presented Swinton the award and she gave an impassioned, political speech to the audience inside the Palast.
“The inhumane is being perpetrated on our watch,” Swinton began her speech. “I’m here to name it without hesitation or doubt in my mind, and to lend my unwavering solidarity to all those who recognize the unacceptable complacency of our greed-addicted governments who make nice with planet wreckers and war criminals, wherever they come from.”
Swinton did not name politicians or specific conflicts but appeared to criticize U.

Focus Features has worked with filmmaker Wes Anderson on Asteroid City and Moonrise Kingdom, a collaboration turned out very well for them. As Variety notes, Asteroid City (pictured above) “earned an impressive (for an arthouse film) $53.8 million at the box office,” while Moonrise Kingdom “grossed $68.3 million and was nominated for an Oscar for its screenplay.” So, it’s a good move that Focus and Anderson are getting back in business with each other, as Focus has just acquired the worldwide distribution rights to Anderson’s latest film, The Phoenician Scheme.
Anderson directed The Phoenician Scheme from a screenplay he wrote with Roman Coppola, who previously worked on the scripts for Anderson’s films The Darjeeling Limited, Moonrise Kingdom, Isle of Dogs, The French Dispatch, and Asteroid City. Filming took place in Germany from March to June of 2024.

The first trailer for Jurassic World Rebirth was released earlier this week but Universal Pictures still unleashed dinosaurs on the Super Bowl with an epic minute-long "Big Game" TV spot.
If you caught the aforementioned sneak peek, much of the footage here will be familiar to you. However, we do see more of this team interacting and new glimpses of the dinosaurs they'll be forced to contend with (including the Rancor-like creature that's making this feel more like a horror movie than the expected action-adventure).
"These are the dinosaurs that didn’t work. There’s some mutations in there," longtime franchise producer Frank Marshall said of the dinosaurs deemed too dangerous for the original Jurassic Park. "They’re all based on real dinosaur research, but they look a little different."

One of the riskiest movies of the year is, without a doubt, F1. A giant-budget movie about Formula One racing, it marks Joseph Kosinski’s much-anticipated follow-up to Top Gun: Maverick, and boasts an all-star cast led by Brad Pitt. In it, he plays a former champ who re-enters F1 racing to mentor a younger driver (Damon Idris) at the behest of his old sponsor, played by Javier Bardem. Sporting a budget that’s somewhere in the $300 million range, in order for this movie to turn a profit it probably has to make about $700-800 million worldwide, numbers Brad Pitt has never mustered throughout his career,...

In it, he plays a former champ who re-enters F1 racing to mentor a younger driver (Damon Idris) at the behest of his old sponsor, played by Javier Bardem. Sporting a budget that’s somewhere in the $300 million range, in order for this movie to turn a profit it probably has to make about $700-800 million worldwide, numbers Brad Pitt has never mustered throughout his career,...

This summer’s action-packed monster movie Jurassic World: Rebirth has released its first trailer and glimpse into the latest film in the franchise, starring Jonathan Bailey, Scarlett Johansson and Mahershala Ali among others. Universal opens the film globally on July 2.
The fourth film in the Jurassic World series follows a team of scientists and others whose main objective is to acquire genetic samples from three of the largest dinosaurs in the sea, on land and in the air. Set five years after Jurassic World: Dominion (2022), the planet has become inhospitable for dinosaurs, so those that still exist have become isolated to environments in which their breeds once flourished. The three most colossal creatures in the different parts of the ecosystem could prove necessary for a life-saving drug for humans.
Johansson plays Zora Bennett, a covert operations expert who is tasked with a top-secret mission that drives the film’s plot.

Throughout Hollywood history, stars have signed on and then swapped out projects for something else and only realized they made the right or wrong call when the box office numbers came in. Vin Diesel, for example, was originally down to play Agent 47 in "Hitman," the film adapted from the popular video game franchise but turned it down. Most would say the "Fast and Furious" films dodged a bullet though, considering the movie received scathing reviews upon release and currently boasts a paltry 16% on Rotten Tomatoes. Even so, that's pretty generous next to the even bigger dumpster fire he starred in the following year instead.

While Amazon-MGM and Eon Productions stir about in their ongoing dispute as to how to proceed with the future of the James Bond franchise, we fans have virtually nothing concrete to go on. And so we go back to the past. But we’re not just rewatching our favorite 007 movies; no, we’re going even deeper than that, as we’ve been given a wealth of failed auditions that have suddenly leaked online – yes, that’s how desperate we are for James Bond casting news!
Coming at the same time as Henry Cavill’s own audition tape for James Bond – which was apparently found in a recycling bin outside of a movie studio – are three more: for Rupert Friend, Sam Worthington and Antony Starr, who were all trying out for the role left vacant by Pierce Brosnan.

Sam Worthington was on the verge of homelessness when he was awarded the biggest role of his lifetime. Despite being turned away from franchises like DC and James Bond, he had found a home in the otherworldly realm of Pandora in James Cameron’s unique, transcendental, visionary epic, Avatar. But the rejections of the past still bear a mark on Worthington’s career.

In 2006, Casino Royale kicked off a new era of James Bond movies that would last all the way through 2021's No Time To Die, when Daniel Craig would officially retire as 007. So far as we know, producers are no closer to casting a new James Bond; apparently there's internal trouble at the studios. While we wait for them to sort things out, the YouTube channel Ron South has posted a bunch of videos of now-famous actors who auditioned to play James Bond for Casino Royale way back when. They include heavy hitters like Avatar star Sam Worthington, The Boys breakout Antony Starr, and the internet's favorite hunky nerd Henry Cavill.
Let's look at Sam Worthington's audition first. All three of these guys audition with the same scene, from 1995's Goldeneye, which starred Pierce Brosnan as James Bond. In this scene, Bond is playing a flirty game of Baccarat with femme fatale Xenia Onatopp,...

Many actors have come close to playing James Bond over the years, with Henry Cavill among the biggest names to have missed out on playing the iconic Sir Ian Fleming creation.
The former Superman was among those eyed to star as 007 when the role was being recast - and the franchise was getting a reboot - for 2006's Casino Royale. Daniel Craig beat Cavill to it, playing a blonde Bond (a controversial move at the time) we bid a permanent farewell to in 2021's No Time to Die.
There's still no word on who will replace Craig and, if recent reports are to be believed, franchise producer Barbara Broccoli and Amazon are butting heads about the property's future.
Now, though, Cavill's 007 audition from 2005 has leaked online (via ActioNewz.com). The YouTuber who uploaded it says "This Video came from a VHS Tape found in a recycling Bin at a Movie Studio,...

The name’s Cavill. Henry Cavill. And as we all know, at one point, Henry Cavill was in the running for James Bond. We’ve heard numerous stories about Cavill’s audition and how close he came to being 007 before Daniel Craig was ultimately cast as Pierce Brosnan’s replacement. But we had never been privy to the audition tape. Now, it has surfaced online, with one channel claiming it came from a VHS tape found in a recycling bin.
At the time he was gunning for James Bond, Henry Cavill (who looks like the twin of Gavin Rossdale in the video) was in his 20s, which at the time was considered too young for the part. And considering Sean Connery and George Lazenby were in their early 30s when they landed Bond, having an actor in their 20s play 007 seemed like a crazy idea. (Eventual Bond Daniel Craig would...

Almost 20 years ago, we got the best Bond movie ever made with 2006's "Casino Royale." After more than 40 years of the Bond saga, Daniel Craig and the Bond producers pulled off a truly impressive feat by reinventing the super spy for a whole new generation. Taking cues from the genre-redefining grittiness of "The Bourne Identity," "Casino Royale" introduced a Bond for the post-9/11 world — a tortured loner who exuded an incongruously intense insouciance. While Craig could project the 007 cool the character was known for, he also seemed to be seething in some awful way just below the surface.
Sadly, as more Craig-led movies arrived, they got progressively worse, culminating in the absurd finale of "No Time to Die," in which the tortured loner introduced in "Casino Royale" goes out in spectacular fashion after being blown up in a torrent of ballistics. It was a sad end to a Bond tenure...

Fans of ‘The Boys’ are buzzing after a rare, long-forgotten screen test of Antony Starr for the role of James Bond from 2005 was leaked online. Alongside other potential Bond candidates like Henry Cavill, Rupert Friend, and Sam Worthington, Starr’s audition is getting a lot of attention—and it’s safe to say fans are loving it!
The four-and-a-half-minute video was uploaded on YouTube by Ron South, and it takes us back to when Starr, best known for his portrayal of the terrifying Homelander in The Boys, was trying out for the role of 007. This screen test likely took place when the filmmakers were preparing for ‘Casino Royale,’ the 2006 film that marked Daniel Craig’s debut as James Bond. At that time, Pierce Brosnan had already wrapped up his run as the iconic spy in 2002, and a new face was being considered for the role.

Jurassic World Rebirth has a scene from Michael Crichton's book that was cut from the original movie

Today is a day for dinosaurs! Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment have just unleashed the first trailer for Jurassic World Rebirth, the seventh installment in the long-running franchise about dinosaurs chomping up humans who too foolhardy to think, "hey, maybe we shouldn't resurrect long dead creatures to sell theme park tickets." I've had the trailer on loop for the better part of the day, and despite some initial misgivings about this movie existing at all, the hype is starting to get me.
It helps that Jurassic World Rebirth has a really strong creative team behind it who seem to be genuinely fired up about the movie. Director Gareth Edwards is a long-time fan of the franchise who has made an undeniable mark on sci-fi filmmaking with movies like Godzilla (2014), Star Wars: Rogue One and The Creator.

A new era is born. This summer, three years after the “Jurassic World” trilogy concluded with each film surpassing $1 billion at the global box office, the enduring “Jurassic” series evolves in an ingenious new direction with Jurassic World Rebirth.
Anchored by iconic action superstar Scarlett Johansson, Emmy and SAG nominee Jonathan Bailey and two-time Oscar® winner Mahershala Ali, this action-packed new chapter sees an extraction team race to the most dangerous place on Earth, an island research facility for the original Jurassic Park, inhabited by the worst of the worst that were left behind. Also starring acclaimed international stars Rupert Friend and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, the film is directed by dynamic visualist Gareth Edwards (Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) from a script by original Jurassic Park screenwriter David Koepp.

Jurassic World Rebirth is the next chapter in the sprawling dinosaur franchise, and I’m calling it now: It will battle with Jurassic World: Dominion for the title of which movie did more harm to the universe.
We’re living in strange times, where it is hard to get the green light for original concepts because executives only want to vote with their wallets when a big brand name is attached.
It’s understandable, especially regarding a CGI-heavy movie franchise, because those same media honchos stand to lose much more money.
(Universal Pictures/Screenshot)
Scarlett Johanson, Jonathan Bailey, Mahershala Ali, and Rupert Friend are A-list actors. However, getting them to sign on for Jurassic World Rebirth was probably easy because of the brand name alone.
At least, that’s what I’m telling myself after watching the official trailer. It looks more like Deep Blue Sea than Jurassic Park, which isn’t a good look.

Universal’s official Jurassic World Rebirth trailer finds a new team taking on dinosaurs that shouldn’t exist and definitely don’t want to be messed with. The reboot of the dino franchise opens in theaters on July 2, 2025.
Gareth Edwards (Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) directs from a screenplay by Jurassic Park screenwriter David Koepp. Frank Marshall and Patrick Crowley serve as producers, with Steven Spielberg, Denis L. Stewart, and Jim Spencer executive producing.
Universal Pictures offers this description of the latest addition to the Jurassic Park franchise:
“Five years after the events of Jurassic World Dominion, the planet’s ecology has proven largely inhospitable to dinosaurs. Those remaining exist in isolated equatorial environments with climates resembling the one in which they once thrived. The three most colossal creatures across land, sea and air within that tropical biosphere hold, in their DNA, the key to a drug that will...

It has often been said that cinema reflects our collective anxieties, and in Companion, writer-director Drew Hancock zeroes in on one of our most persistent modern fears: the encroachment of artificial intelligence into the deeply human realm of intimacy.
At once a darkly comic sci-fi thriller and a razor-sharp satire on misogyny in the digital age, Companion takes well-worn genre tropes and injects them with a pulpy, anarchic energy. But while it boasts a game cast, a thrillingly unhinged lead performance from Sophie Thatcher, and some wickedly effective tonal shifts, the film ultimately struggles to distinguish itself from the weighty lineage of AI-fixated thrillers that precede it.
Thatcher plays Iris, a seemingly ideal girlfriend, meticulously dressed in 1950s technicolor housewife garb as she wanders through an eerily vacant supermarket in the film’s opening moments. This Stepford Wives-esque introduction sets the stage for the film’s biting critique of patriarchal fantasy—because,...

Universal Pictures has released the first trailer for Jurassic World Rebirth, marking the next chapter in the long-running franchise. Directed by Gareth Edwards and featuring a screenplay by Jurassic Park scribe David Koepp, the film is set to take audiences into uncharted territory when it arrives in cinemas across the UK and Ireland on 2nd July 2025.
The trailer teases a high-stakes action thriller where the remnants of Jurassic Park’s past collide with a desperate race for scientific discovery. Five years after the events of Jurassic World Dominion, dinosaurs remain in isolated equatorial zones, their numbers dwindling due to inhospitable global conditions. At the centre of the story is an elite extraction team led by Zora Bennett, played by Scarlett Johansson, who is tasked with recovering genetic material from the three largest dinosaur species still in existence. Their DNA reportedly holds the key to revolutionary medical advancements—but recovering it will be anything but straightforward.

Jurassic World: El renacer se sitúa cinco años después de los acontecimientos de Jurassic World Dominion. La ecología del planeta Tierra ha demostrado ser insoportable para los dinosaurios: los pocos que quedan viven en ambientes aislados en las regiones ecuatoriales, donde el clima se parece al que conocieron antaño. Las tres criaturas más grandes dentro de esta biosfera tropical tienen en su Adn la clave para fabricar un medicamento que aportará beneficios milagrosos a la raza humana. Por esta misma razón, un intrépido equipo liderado por Zora Bennett, una experta en operaciones encubiertas, acabará en el lugar más peligroso de la Tierra: un centro de investigación del Parque Jurásico original...
