filmlover Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 6 minutes ago, Fanboy said: It'd probably be a good idea to delay this since this is the sort of the film that is going to generate buzz from cast interviews. I'm really looking forward to this but I also want it to do well. They did film interviews with Z/O'Connor/Faist a few weeks back most likely in preparation for a strike that would be released in September but apparently it's Guadagnino really pushing for this to be held until the SAG strike is over. Since directors and producers are the only ones actually engaged with Hollywood at the moment, I imagine they'll all be sitting down with the studios starting this week to discuss what they want to do with their fall movies (at least the non-IP-based ones like this).

I think some will probably released as planned like A Haunting in Venice and The Equalizer 3, I'm not sure if Challengers would fare any better later in the calendar. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hidden behind a paywall but in the article it does say that Sony confirmed Equalizer 3 is coming out in September regardless of whether Denzel is able to promote it or not.

I don’t think Challengers going to be huge but I’m predicting it to land around the 30m range. Dune is also gonna be way bigger than Madame Web.

I don't think so, unless the budget is ridiculous, it's getting good buzz for this sort of film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedorito Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 21 hours ago, Maggie said: This will flop imo. In the end, Sydney Sweeney> Zendaya in the battle for the big screen success. Zendaya has 3 Spider-Man films and 2 Dune films. Plus she’s the lead in the show Sweeney is known for. Even if this doesn’t do as well as a holiday rom com she’s still well ahead of Sweeney at the moment. But let’s not pit two women against each other. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
