She’s got a bunch in the works right now, including Coogler’s X-Files reboot and Mann’s Heat sequel, which will star (among many others) Leonardo DiCaprio. “There’s a very high degree of difficulty, put it that way — this is a new iteration, but the expectations are very high given the cast of the original,” Mann tells me of the casting process. “But there’s certain qualities we are looking for, and Francine and I both speak the same internal, intuitive language. I’m very grateful for that.”

Sony is looking to reboot Charlie's Angels again.

Gender flip it. 3 hot guys with "Charlie" being voiced by Helen Mirren.

It's based on a fictional novel and the ship is fictional too. The character in the book is George Krause, inspired by George P. Hunter, while the character in the movie is Ernest Krause.

I didn't know that. So the movie is more inspired from a real life event during the war than that actually being what happened. Either way I do think it will be good. Tom Hanks you can tell loves that kind of material.

Director Adam Wingard (You're Next, The Guest, Godzilla vs. Kong) has left Face/Off 2 after being attached for five years. Rumor is it's now an open director assignment at Paramount where people can pitch their own ideas.

How you know where your acting career is: You're doing a voice in Sonic 4.

She's currently the lead in a hugely successful Netflix comedy show that's just finished its second season and has been picked up for a third and she'll next be seen in Violent Night 2, plus she's been doing voice work for most of her career so I think career wise she's doing fine.

It occurred to me that with the continued love of the film Elf, and the continued popularity of Elf on the Shelf, now is the time to squeeze those 'member berries and do a CGI Herself, The Elf movie.

They did try to do a new series, back in 2018, but it seems to have gone nowhere.
