I'm not a fan of theme parks but World of Frozen at Hong Kong Disneyland looks stunning.
I'm guess it's due to space limitations but interesting that neither US resorts are getting it, it's opening at DisneySea in Tokyo and Disneyland Paris in 2025.
The amount of actors doing Broadway or West End between now and next year does make me wonder if actors thought the strike would go on a while longer and so sought to do theatre. Steve Carrell in Uncle Vanya and Elle Fanning in Approriate are the two that come to mind.
I do think if actors are concerned about AI recreation, they need to put in contracts saying they cannot be recreated after their death or in general or they can be recreated but they are paid a lot for it.
Jeez, it's like Sony reused the assets from Spider-Man 3 for the villain.
People may mock Marvel Studios and Warner Bros/DC but Sony really can't crack doing Spider-Man films without Spider-Man with the exception of Venom.
Seems a bit strange to make him film things with stand ins but I'm guessing SAG-AFTRA can't do anything if he's not on a SAG contract. House of the Dragon being entirely on Equity contract meant that series 2 can be released in 2024 as planned.
Cleopatra is the case of what could go wrong, did go wrong. I'm not sure what $40m is in today's money but in 1963 but it was a lot.
I find it strange that we refer to Columbia Pictures as Sony, we don't call Universal Comcast for example.
I am surprised to learn that Jonathan Bailey was on an Equity contract and not a SAG/AFTRA contract for Wicked and did some scenes. I would have assumed he was on a SAG/AFTRA contract given he's not exactly unknown.
People are really blowing the whole film makers are cancelling meetings out of proposition. Are people seriously suggesting people will avoid WB while Zaslav in charge and there will be no WB films or TV shows at all?
