I mean odd in that I don't see any reason why Travis Knight would be a co-director 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be 100% honest I considered Boden/Fleck for a while but CM didn’t completely wow me. I could also do 100% Amma Asante as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of them can be in a producing role, but I would allow the film to have a defined voice from a singular director. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YM! Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 @cayommagazine Lesedi: The Phoenix Princess will be directed by Gina-Prince Bythewood (Perfect Match) with both Travis Knight and Noelle Stevenson producing the film as the latter will be executive producing from a script by Knight and Bythewood. The film is still on date for November 4th as it is Endless Entertainment’s number one priority on the live action side aside from Eyes as the plot and cast stay the same. Travis Knight stepped down from directing due to his hands being tied to both the Amulet franchise from Hollywood Animation Studios and Cookie Pictures Animation’s upcoming The Legend Of Zelda: Secret Of The Guardians. Xavier B. Irving, a Bajan American man talked the importance of diversity at the studio saying that it allows the fullest expression of ideals and opinions which is important for making unique and strong films. Endless Animation and Ava DuVernay’s The Music In Me, was pushed to October 14th, Y6, in order for better legs and for rival’s Shining Star Animation’s Duck Hunt which now opens Thanksgiving weekend. Although unorothodox, after seeing Academy Award winner Sylvarius, pull near $260M domestic in a August-September timeframe, the strength the Endless Entertainment and Endless Animation has in the family audience and success of A Star is Born in that timeframe, it may work. Both Lesedi: The Phoenix Princess and The Music In Me are very big in the film industry. The former is the first $200M+ budgeted film by an African American woman and the latter is the first major animated movie by an African American women. It is reported that Endless Entertainment hopes the benefit each other as Endless Entertainment has partnered with various companies for a massive marketing push for both of the tentpoles. On October 7th, Endless Entertainment will be dropping screenings The Music In Me at NYCC and the first 30 minutes of Lesedi and on October 14th, an event called #Octoberislit, Endless Entertainment will be funding a Comic Con style event for African American filmmakers as well as other filmmakers and actors of colors and sexuality with F. Gray Gray (Spark: Homeward, Green Lantern Corps), Jennifer Yuh Nelson (Spark: Beyond The Sky and Spark: A Hero’s Promise) and acclaimed actress Bex Taylor-Klaus (The Scavenger Wars Part II, Voltron: Legendary Defender) to discuss film as well as showcase some of the past works. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YM! Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 @cayommagazine Faith+1 From the sinners behind Pineapple Express and This Is The End, comes a comedy for the believers. In this satire about religion and faith stars Charlie Sanderson (Jay Baruchel), a down on his luck and rather neurotic screenwriter and his best friend Sydney Pod (Seth Rogen), a beloved yet leechourous Hollywood actor decide to make their own religion for profit, using Sydney’s fame, with the help of a few people key to helping the scam pay off (Charlize Theron, Daveed Diggs and Michael Cera). However as the two best friends plot for cash have negative consequences such as a radical group of followers with a devout leader (Danny McBride) and a woman who has become rather peculiar about the religion (Mindy Kaling) that Sydney finds himself attracted to. Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg will write, produce and direct the project as Infinite Studios will distribute. The project plans to open Y6/Y7. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
