IndieWire released an article of books to read before their film adaption comes to the screen. In it both Mickey17 and Die My Love were mentioned (I’m about to start reading coincidentally). The interesting comment on Die My Love was this [my emphasis]:
Ramsay has been known to take a loose approach to her source material, freely adapting Lionel Schriver’s “We Need to Talk About Kevin” and Jonathan Ames’ “You Were Never Really Here.” She wrote the script for “Die, My Love” with Edna Walsh and again works with DP Seamus McGarvey, who created a nightmarish swirl of hallucinatory images for “Kevin.” The movie doesn’t have a U.S. distributor yet, but I’d bet on at least a Cannes premiere (where Ramsay generally goes) and a distributor snapping this up quick.“
How great would that be seeing Rob portray Jackson at a Cannes premiere . Fingers crossed.
Deadline is reporting that a third trailer for Mickey17 is about to drop:
Which leads us to the much-delayed $80M Mickey 17, Oscar winner Bong Joon Ho’s next movie that was finished in January 2023 and has changed release dates four times (March 29, 2024, followed by January 31, 2025, Easter weekend April 18, and finally March 7). Bong gets final cut and has been working on the ideal cut, collaborating with the studio on its suggestions. Tracking services are concerned that the first two trailers didn’t exactly set the world on fire
While two trailers have generated more than 41M views per social media analytics firm RelishMix, the trailer’s viral rate is low at 6:1 next to Superman‘s massive 317:1 and Minecraft‘s 50:1. At the same time, when it comes to director Bong, the filmmaker has few box office comps, his highest being his multi-Oscar-winning Parasite at $262M. Much like Robert Eggers found a growing fanbase in Nosferatu, the hope is that Bong will experience a similar boom. Tracking sources tell us that the movie’s draw rests largely on star Robert Pattinson’s shoulders, and the new release date allows The Batman actor to promote the project. A third trailer will drop soon in an attempt to reignite the campaign for the film about the comedic astronaut who dies several times.
Josh Horowitz interviewed Matt Reeves on the Golden Globes red carpet and managed to ask about The Batman II (starts at about 3.42). Josh asked if he was happy with how the script was progressing to which Matt said yes and again confirmed that they will be shooting this year and that the script has taken longer than he wanted, but that he’s “super excited about what they are doing”. Josh also tried to find out about who the main villian was going to be but of course Matt was very tight lipped but said that it would be surprising to the fans. He also said:
“The story is a continuation in a certain way and completely different in another, and is going to show a different side of Rob and I think it’s going to be really exciting and really cool.”
Finally, Josh tells Matt he’s spoken to James Gunn and whether Rob will be integrated into the DCU and it’s been talked about, but Matt’s attitude is whether it makes sense or not and he’s not sure what the future will bring and he doesn’t know we’ll have to see where that goes, but again Matt reiterated that his main focus is shooting The Batman II.
Watch the video to see whether Matt reads the rumours on line and whether there will be other spinoffs. Howevever, his main priority is to focus on The Batman II – Click to watch.

Matt Reeves confirms that The Batman II will definitely be shooting this year in the wake of the film being pushed back to October 2027. According to Deadline:
Matt Reeves couldn’t say much about The Batman II, other than “I can tell you that we’ll be shooting this year.”… “We’re doing something where the story continues from, but I hope that people will be surprised by,” said Reeves.
Deadline had heard “through sources previously that the sequel to the $772M-plus grossing 2022 movie was lensing this summer. Given the VFX heavy movie, 2027 is a doable deadline.”
Production Weekly is reporting that The Odyssey will be filming from January to April 2025 in UK, Morocco and Italy. It also has a mention that Robert Downey Jr is involved, although confirmation as to RDJ joining the cast is yet to be confirmed.
Dior posted this great little video of Rob revealing what goes on behind the scenes of the new Dior Homme campaign whilst being driven around in a New York taxi (again how does one apply for a job like this).
