'The Creator': Epic Sci-Fi in the Making 🚀

Disney is going all out to make Gareth Edwards' sci-fi flick, "The Creator," a big hit. It's not easy with strong competition from movies like "Paw Patrol: The Mighty Movie" and "Saw X," plus the actor promotions hit by the SAG-AFTRA strike. But they're giving it their all.

"The Creator" is different; it's not your snooze-fest sci-fi. It's action-packed, AI-infused, and clocks in at a brisk 2 hours and 13 minutes. People are liking it, and Disney is gunning for over $20 million at the box office.

Internationally, they're targeting that sweet 60% of global earnings, and Disney's throwing the marketing kitchen sink at it. They're all about the humanity vs. tech concept, the Hans Zimmer score, and those eye-catching visuals. They even went a bit nuts, sending robot models to sporting events. Yep, it got a lot of attention on TikTok.

With over 3,600 theaters booked and a strong presence in premium formats, Disney's determined to make "The Creator" a hit. If it works, this film could even score some Oscar nods, especially in the techy categories. So, Disney's sticking to their guns and betting big on this sci-fi gem.

What's coming? 🤔

'The Exorcist' Bows to Taylor Swift 🧟‍♀️

So, here's the scoop: Jason Blum, the producer of "The Exorcist: Believer," decided to shuffle the movie's release date to avoid a showdown with Taylor Swift's concert film. Originally, they had this grand plan to drop the spooky flick on a Friday the 13th in October – a pretty clever move. Blum even coined the hashtag #Exorswift on Twitter to celebrate the date. But then, he realized Taylor Swift's massive fan base is nothing to mess with.

In a bit of Twitter humor, Blum pulled a Taylor Swift and said, "Look what you made me do." He announced the new release date of October 6, 2023, surrendering to Taylor's star power with a cheeky "Taylor Wins."

Blum also gave a shoutout to director David Gordon Green for his magic touch. Green managed to convince Ellen Burstyn to reprise her role from the original "Exorcist" after eons. The movie features Lidya Jewett and Olivia O’Neill as possessed kids, Leslie Odom Jr. as their dad, Ann Dowd as a nurse, and, of course, Ellen Burstyn as Chris MacNeil.

In the end, it's all about giving both films their space to shine. No need for a box office showdown when fans can enjoy both "The Exorcist: Believer" and Taylor Swift's project without any drama.

Remembering Michael Gambon 🧙‍♂️

Michael Gambon, the legendary actor we all know as Professor Albus Dumbledore from the Harry Potter movies has left us at the age of 82. He battled pneumonia in the hospital and passed away peacefully, surrounded by his family.

Before he became Dumbledore, Gambon was a theater powerhouse, starting his career alongside the great Laurence Olivier at the Royal National Theatre. He wowed audiences with his Shakespearean talents, taking on iconic roles in plays like Othello, Hamlet, and Macbeth.

Over his six-decade career, Gambon raked in quite the collection of awards, including three Oliviers, two SAG Awards, and a knighthood in 1999 for his outstanding contributions to the world of drama.

But let's not forget his amazing work on the silver screen. Besides Harry Potter, he left his mark in films like "The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover," "Gosford Park," and "The King’s Speech." And television? He aced that too with roles in "The Singing Detective," "Perfect Strangers," "Path To War," and "Emma."

Michael Gambon's passing is a loss to the entertainment world, and he'll be remembered for his incredible talent and unforgettable performances.

A Success Story: From YouTube to Prime Video 😈

Prime Video is stepping into the world of adult animated series with "Hazbin Hotel." They've snagged two seasons of this devilishly intriguing show based on a 2019 pilot by creator Vivienne Medrano. A24 is the production muscle behind it, while Fox’s Bento Box Entertainment handles the animation. The first season is primed to hit screens in January.

It's the story of Charlie, the Hell princess, who's determined to rehabilitate demons and clear up the overcrowding mess down below. Her plan? Open a hotel where her guests can somehow make it to Heaven. Sounds wild, right? Well, most of Hell thinks so too, except her loyal partner, Vaggie, and their first guest, Angel Dust, an adult film star. Things get crazier when the powerful Radio Demon steps in to help Charlie make her dream come true.

Vivienne Medrano, known as Vivziepop on YouTube, started this journey by funding the pilot through Patreon. It premiered on YouTube in October 2019. A24 jumped on board in August 2020, and now Prime Video is giving it a home.

"Hazbin Hotel" joins Prime Video's lineup of adult animations like "Invincible" and "The Legend of Vox Machina." And there are some cool upcoming titles to look forward to as well. Medrano is calling the shots as the executive producer and director for all episodes.
