In a somewhat odd pairing, Oscar winners Angelina Jolie and Christoph Waltz are in talks to star in the music-driven drama Every Note Played for STXfilms, the studio announced Friday. The film is based on the acclaimed book of the same name by Still Alice author Lisa Genova. Monet Clayton and David Mandell optioned the novel and adapted the screenplay, and Clayton will produce with Richard Barton Lewis and Gabrielle Jerou via Lewis' Southpaw Entertainment banner. Michael Sucsy (Grey Gardens) will direct Every Note Played, which follows a world-renowned concert pianist and composer (Waltz) on the verge of …
I’ll tell you; it isn’t easy keeping a phone conversation with Christoph Waltz to the allotted time, especially when you’re discussing a new storytelling format like “Movies in Chapters” on Quibi. Waltz leads one of the first Quibi original feature films. In Most Dangerous Game, he plays Miles Sellers, the head of a company called the Tiro Fund. Miles offers to help Liam Hemsworth’s character, Dodge, out of a very tough spot, but not by giving Dodge the loan he requests. Instead, Miles suggests Dodge could make enough money to support his family by allowing himself …
Whether Alita: Battle Angel worked for you or not, there’s no denying that the February 2019 release sparked quite the response. Of course the property already had a significant fanbase thanks to the manga source material, but the movie seemed to take it to another level - the kind of level where a fan group raises over $1,800 to fly a banner over the Academy Awards red carpet to try to persuade Disney to make a sequel.

In 2015, Tommy Gilbert shot and killed his father, multi-millionaire Manhattan hedge fund manager Thomas Gilbert Sr. The case caught the attention of the nation, and Benjamin Wallace wrote a piece about it called "A Gilded Rage" in Vanity Fair. Producer Jake Gyllenhaal set up the film version, also called Gilded Rage, earlier this year. Now, Deadline reports that actors Lily Collins (To the Bone) and Christoph Waltz (Inglourious Basterds) join the growing cast, which also includes Bill Skarsgard (It). Charlie McDowell (The One I Love) will direct the true crime thriller dramatizing the sordid details. Skarsgard is playing …
I've had severe reservations about Quibi—the self-styled streaming service for millennials that will specialize in bite-sized, 10-minutes or less content—since it was announced. How does that even work? How does one tell a story like that? Is Quibi a prank of some sort? And yet today, I suddenly find myself extremely invested in the success of Quibi, if only to experience this newly-announced action-thriller in which two-time Oscar-winner Christoph Waltz hunts Liam Hemsworth for sport. The official synopsis, via Deadline: In the series, desperate to take care of his pregnant …
When the Bond 25 cast was announced a while back, there was one name missing. Someone who survived the events of Spectre. Someone known as... Blofeld. And while rumors regarding the super-villain's return have swirled over the past several weeks, the past 24 hours have brought forth firm reports that two-time Oscar winner Christoph Waltz will, in fact, reprise his role, albeit in a somewhat different capacity. See, The Guardian broke the news of Blofeld's return, but it was The Playlist who claimed that the character will function a bit like Hannibal Lecter in Bond 25, …
