Another "well-placed source close to production" said a candidate to be the new James Bond is Scott Rose-Marsh (WOLVES OF WAR), who was, “brought in sometime in late June to read sides from 1995’s GOLDENEYE, presumably for just-hired director Denis Villeneuve”.

NOBODY 2---the Bob Odenkirk sequel has a Rotten Tomatoes critics score of 83% based on 45 critics reviews. Odenkirk commented on if he would return for new sequels, “It would be about the journey of the family and the tensions that change as you move from one chapter to the next. You tell yourself, ‘This is going to be it now. I’m going to enjoy this chapter of my life, and I’m going to be carefree.’ But then you find that it has just as many frustrations and shortcomings as the last chapter.”

TRIVIA---in 2023, a team of paleontologists led by Giovanni Mussini discovered fossils of a prehistoric worm in the Grand Canyon from the Cambrian Period over 500 million years ago. It was a priapulid, also referred to as "penis worm" and "cactus worm". Because it had hundreds of branching teeth and the size of the fossil, the paleontologists named it Kraytdraco spectatus after the Krayt dragon, whose skeleton was first seen in the original STAR WARS and the live version was first seen in THE MANDALORIAN.

INITIATIVE---the MR. AND MRS. SMITH team of Angelina Jolie and director Doug Liman will reunite for the spy movie whose plot is described as, "...a rogue master spy named Bright who works outside the lines (because sometimes you need someone bad to bring down people who are even worse, as the movies have taught us). When a new agent named Charlie joins Bright’s team, he soon finds himself in situations where he isn’t sure whether his new boss is trying to kill him or simply is willing to do whatever is necessary to protect the free world."

HOME ALONE---director Chris Columbus commented on a possible reboot of the classic Christmas movie, “I think HOME ALONE really exists as, not at this timepiece, but it was this very special moment, and you can’t really recapture that. I think it’s a mistake to try to go back and recapture something we did 35 years ago. I think it should be left alone.”

VICIOUS---Dakota Fanning will star in the horror movie whose synopsis says, "When Polly (Dakota Fanning) receives a mysterious Box from an unexpected late-night visitor, it comes with a simple instruction: place three things inside: something you need, something you hate, and something you love. What begins as a strange ritual quickly unravels into a waking nightmare. Trapped in a terrifying world where reality bends and memory betrays, Polly must navigate a series of impossible choices. As time slips away, she’s forced to confront the darkness not just around her, but within her—before it consumes everything and everyone she’s ever known."
