Harry Styles almost sunk his teeth into a new role.
The star of upcoming films “Don’t Worry Darling” and “My Policeman” was reportedly linked to lead Robert Eggers’ reimagining of classic vampire film “Nosferatu,” as The New Yorker reported. Styles exited the project due to scheduling conflicts ahead of the release of his third studio album, “Harry’s House,” coming up May 20.
Styles would have starred opposite frequent Eggers collaborator Anya Taylor-Joy in the remake of F. W. Murnau’s 1922 silent movie. Eggers and Joy originally worked together on “The Witch” before teaming up again for “The Northman,” also starring Ethan Hawke, Nicole Kidman, Willem Dafoe, and Alexander Skarsgård, in theaters April 22.
The Covid-19 production delays around the “Hamlet”-esque Viking saga “The Northman” is in part what led to Eggers’ “Nosferatu” being put on the backburner. Per the New Yorker interview, Eggers was supposed to be in Prague shooting...

Yesterday, Spanish-language site Vértice Cine posted an update on Faster, Cheaper, Better, the new movie from Nightcrawler director Dan Gilroy. The interesting-sounding project is about the rise of robots and the impact of automation on human workers. But what set tongues wagging was their announcement that the movie would star Brad Pitt and Harry Styles. Vanity Fair picked up on the story, made it sound like a done deal and the internet promptly lost its mind.
Based on this rumor, Pitt and Styles began trending on Twitter, borne on the wave of a cavalcade of tweets that can only be described as incredibly thirsty. Here’s but a sample…

Netflix’s action-thriller “Gray Man”starring Chris Evans and Ryan Gosling has been selected for a $20 million production tax credit allocation by the California Film Commission.
The credit for “Gray Man,” with Joe and Anthony Russo directing, was by far the largest amount unveiled Monday among the $50 million in conditional allocations for nine film projects.

“Gray Man,” announced last month, is based on a series of best-sellers from Mark Greaney. Gosling will portray an ex-cia operative who becomes a killer for hire and is pursued by a former colleague, played by Evans. Joe and Anthony Russo are directing and producing through their Agbo company.

Exclusive: As a star cast circles, and a domestic auction wraps up, the Dan Gilroy-directed drama Faster, Cheaper, Better has sold out all of its international territories in pre-buy deals. While studios are in the mix for domestic rights and bidding is in the $15 million range, the sold out international territories put the film in a green light position.
CAA Media Finance arranged the film’s financing and is brokering domestic while FilmNation Entertainment dealt a litany of offshore territorial deals on a sweeping near-future epic that spans 20 years, multiple locales and a myriad of characters. The interwoven stories follow a union foreman, a young entrepreneur, an indoor farm executive and a tech billionaire whose lives are upended when automation and A.I. transform the world as we know it. Ultimately, they all must face what it means to be human.
Script was written by Gilroy, who helmed Nightcrawler,...
