Nothing goes to waste in Challengers, which only sends its performances, and everything that surrounds them, sailing over the net into victory.

Luca Guadagnino is on a roll, and plans to release Queer. Here is what we know so far about the upcoming film.

Luca Guadagnino’s 2018 remake of Dario Aregento’s ballet-and-witches classic Suspiria is a total masterpiece and one of the most unfairly overlooked movies in recent memory. Beautiful, haunting, with much on its mind (perhaps too much), it was also a wild left turn for the director, who had just won critical acclaim and industry recognition for his tender coming-of-age drama Call Me By Your Name. But had Suspiria been more widely embraced (as it should have been), Guadagnino had plans for a follow-up (remember that Argento’s film was ultimately the first part of …

From showrunner Luca Guadagnino (Call Me By Your Name), the eight-episode HBO series We Are Who We Are tells the story of two American teenagers who live on a U.S. military base in Italy, exploring all of the messy emotions that come with being 14. When the shy and introverted Fraser (Jack Dylan Grazer) meets the bold and confident Caitlin (Jordan Kristine Seamón), he finds someone that he can connect with, in a way unlike anyone else in his life. During this 1-on-1 phone interview with Collider, Grazer talked about the privilege it’s been …

Universal Pictures has been trying to get a new Scarface remake off the ground for years, but it now appears as though the studio is willing to go an interesting route rather than an expected one. Luca Guadagnino, the Oscar-nominated filmmaker behind lush films like Call Me By Your Name and A Bigger Splash, is currently attached to direct the film, and he has ambitious R-rated plans for the material. Speaking with BadTaste.it at the Venice Film Festival (in Italian and translated to English), Guadagnino said what appeals to him about doing Scarface is the Tony Montana …

Searchlight has put together a truly wild creative team for its adaptation of Matt Tyrnauer's documentary, Scotty and the Secret History of Hollywood. Luca Guadagnino (Call Me By Your Name) is set to direct from a script by Pineapple Express duo Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg. Those are two extremely different vibes mashing together there, but woo boy could the result be something special. Here's a synopsis of the film which is based on the true story of Scotty Bowers [via Deadline]: The film focuses on Scotty Bowers, a World War II Marine combat veteran who fought at …

HBO has released the first full trailer for the upcoming drama series We Are Who We Are, which marks Call Me By Your Name and Suspiria filmmaker Luca Guadagnino’s first foray into television. The eight-episode show takes place on a U.S. military base in Italy and stars Jack Dylan Grazer as a shy and introverted 14-year-old named Fraser who strikes up a friendship with the seemingly bold and confident Caitlyn, played by Jordan Kristine Seamón. The series explores themes of friendship, identity, and first-love as Guadagnino uses his knack for aesthetic immersion to …

In a new interview with Variety timed to the release of a teaser for his new HBO series We Are Who We Are, Luca Guadagnino talked about his upcoming Scarface remake, as well as the planned sequel to Call Me By Your Name. The Italian filmmaker is no stranger to remakes, having recently directed Suspiria for Amazon, and having based A Bigger Splash on the 1969 Alain Delon film La Piscine. But those who claim he only does remakes are missing the bigger picture, as Guadagnino explains.

HBO has released the first teaser trailer for Luca Guadagnino's upcoming series, We Are Who We Are. This new, eight-episode series is the Call Me By Your Name and Suspiria director's official foray into the television space. We first learned about this project back in February 2019, so it's nice to finally have a closer look at what's coming our way later in the year. [caption id="attachment_909156" align="alignright" width="360"] Image via HBO[/caption] The We Are Who We Are teaser is brief, but does a damn fine job of plunging us into …

Oscar-nominated filmmaker Luca Guadagnino is in talks to direct Universal Pictures' long-in-the-works Scarface reboot, Variety has confirmed. Collider had previously heard that the Call Me by Your Name filmmaker was circling the project, and it appears a deal has now formed. The new film is a reimagined version of the immigrant story that was previously told in the 1932 and 1983 films, and is set in Los Angeles. The film has been in the works for years, with David Ayer signing on to write the script in 2011. Directors like David Yates and Antoine Fuqua attached …

Justice for Piggy! If you've ever read William Golding's classic novel Lord of the Flies (or skimmed enough Cliff's Notes to finish your high school paper), you know its darkly classic structure well: Kids get stranded on an island, kids try to retain a sense of sanity and society, kids quickly devolve into their inherent animalistic natures, kids kill each other moments before getting rescued. The book has been adapted twice before, and we're soon to get another from director Luca Guadagnino (Call Me By Your Name, Suspiria). And now, per the Hollywood Reporter, this version …

A new trailer for the short film The Staggering Girl just dropped, and it is every bit as creepy and mysterious as you would expect from the man behind the eerie Suspiria remake. Luca Guadagnino, who nabbed an Academy Award nomination for his 2017 drama Call Me by Your Name, screened the 35-minute film at last year’s Cannes Film Festival, and now the short is premiering on the streaming service Mubi February 15. [caption id="attachment_871776" align="alignright" width="360"] Image via MUBI[/caption] From the official synopsis, “Francesca is the troubled, expatriate daughter of the acclaimed German-…

What if Lord of the Flies but with girls? Once upon a time, that was the premise of Warner Bros.' new adaptation of William Golding's 1954 novel about a group of British boys stranded on an uninhabited island and the societal fallout that ensues. Now it seems like the project might be going back to a more faithful rendition of the source story, though I still have my fingers crossed for a Lady of the Flies take. What is clear, however, is that filmmaker Luca Guadagnino (Call Me by Your Name, Suspiria) is in talks to direct the pic. …

Call Me By Your Name director Luca Guadagnino enters talks to helm a new movie adaptation of William Golding's famous book, Lord of the Flies.

With last year's Suspiria, director Luca Guadagnino created a sumptuous, sensual fever dream featuring three separate, equally dynamite Tilda Swinton characters and an all-time performance from Dakota Johnson. It was weird, artsy, spectacular, and roughly 17 people went to see it in theaters, not counting the friends and family screening. (That $2 million domestic box office, I cry every time.) But there's no denying Guadagnino is still a force behind the camera since his Call Me By Your Name snagged three Oscar noms in 2017, which means the news of the filmmaker developing an eight-episode series …
