Clayton Davis A weekend trio of big wins for Netflix at the DGA, BAFTA and Critics Choice awards has given Jane Campion’s “The Power of the Dog” the gas required to make it over the finish line. That’s if it can keep its closest competitors — “Belfast” from Kenneth Branagh and “CODA” from Siân Heder — at bay.The Darryl F.

Speaking to Collider, the director confirmed that the screenplay for his anticipated “Dune” sequel is “mostly” finished. Villeneuve and cinematographer Greig Fraser shot several sequences in “Dune” using IMAX cameras, and they will do so again in “Dune: Part 2” to a hopefully even larger degree.“Greig Fraser and I, we fell in love with this format, and definitely there will be — even probably more — IMAX footage in this movie.

We haven’t seen any directorial work from Michael Mann in a while. The filmmaker hasn’t returned to the director’s chair since 2015’s “Blackhat.” Well, that’s about to change thanks to the HBO Max limited series, “Tokyo Vice.” As seen in the trailer, “Tokyo Vice” follows the story of an American journalist, in the late ‘90s, trying to make a name for himself in Japan.
