Skydance has announced they’ve partnered with Netflix on Six Underground, with Ryan Reynolds is on board to star, directed by Michael Bay. Details are being kept under wraps on the action film, but THR reports “the plot revolves around six billionaires who fake their own death and form an elite team to take down bad guys.” The movie is written by Deadpool 2 writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick.
Variety reports that Liam Neeson is in negotiations to join Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson in Sony’s Men in Black spinoff. F. Gary Gray, who previously helmed Straight Outta Compton and The Fate of the Furious, is on board to direct with Sony fast tracking the movie for a May 17, 2019 release.
Deadline reports that that Charlize Theron will portray news anchor Megyn Kelly in Annapurna Pictures’ untitled film about the women working at the Fox News Channel, and the sexual harassment they experienced at the hands of chairman Roger Ailes. The film has Oscar-winning The Big Short co-writer Charles Randolph penning the script, with Recount and Game Change director Jay Roach is on board to direct.
THR reports that Lionsgate has won the bidding war for the Image Comics title Analog, setting John Wick director Chad Stahelski to helm. Ryan Condal, the creator of USA’s alien invasion show Colony, is on board to adapt. Analog is set in the near-future where the security of the Internet has been rendered useless thanks to an event referred to as the Great Doxxing.
Global Road Entertainment has released the first City of Lies trailer. The upcoming crime drama is based on the true story of the attempt to solve the murder of rapper Notorious B.I.G. aka Biggie Smalls. The film follows LAPD detective Russell Poole (Johnny Depp) who teams up with journalist “Jack” Jackson (Forest Whitaker) to try and finally discover what happened to Biggie Smalls two decades after his murder. The film is set to open on September 7th.
