Chicago, meet Caleb 🤝
An honor to be quoted with Lisa Bunnell, Elissa Federoff & Michael O'Leary in excellent reporting by @brianwelk @IndieWire! “[For] some moviegoers, this may be the reason they go to a movie theater for the first time in a long time" @Comscore @csMoviesUS yahoo.com/entertainment/…
Quentin Tarantino Is No Longer Making ‘The Movie Critic’ as His 10th Film trib.al/fvJc4eA
Warner Bros. Pictures and DC Studios announced "Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story" will be released via Fathom Events this September. See our interview with his family from Sundance: trib.al/B9me24x
Distribution talks are underway following Thursday's first screening of Francis Ford Coppola's MEGALOPOLIS starring Adam Driver. The movie has a lot of options but is likely chasing a big studio theatrical deal with an IMAX release: indiewire.com/news/business/…
Thoughts on Caleb Williams…
A biopic about the life of Bruce Springsteen is in its early stages with Jeremy Allen White in talks for the lead. See everything we know about the film: trib.al/wGstWRH

I interviewed Cate Blanchett about her new filmmaker grant program and what sets it apart from other incubators that don't often provide real opportunities. She's got an all-star selection committee, great data from USC, and Netflix backing them: indiewire.com/news/business/…

That was a very weird way for Al Pacino to announce Oppenheimer's Best Picture win, but I'm thrilled, my favorite movie of 2023.

Also Medical Police/I'm Sorry/Wet Hot American Summer/Childrens Hospital/Another PeriodThe Bears get their edge rusher, trading into Round 5 and taking Kansas' Austin Booker. From @dpbrugler: "He is an ascending player with the ability to maximize his athletic traits and body length/force with proper biomechanics." Booker was Dane's 78th-ranked player overall.
Why would Atlanta use their 8th pick in the draft on a QB? The team believes they won’t have a top pick with Cousins under center the next few years, and now is the time to get a great one.
So excited for this fellowship and to be part of this group! Also, loving the number of Indiana journalists selected.

We're not talking enough about how unique & abnormal Caleb Williams' & Bears pre-draft process has been. Caleb took 1 visit, & Chicago didn't bring in any other QBs. Since 2011, every other QB taken 1 overall who could go on a visit (excluding 2020 & 21) went on multiple. (1/6)

Oh good, they made a field for the White Sox too.
Some pics from the #Bears video presentation:
ESPN content producer @PaulHembo calculated the percentage of 1st-round picks that “hit” or “miss,” based upon whether that player signed a second contract with the team that drafted them. The data encompasses the 20 drafts spanning 2000-2019. Here are the positional hit rates:
On ESPN1000, @JesseRogersESPN confirms @TommyBirch report that Matt Mervis is coming up, and adds that Garrett Cooper is being DFA'd to make room.
