Zack Sharf “The Flash” is not the only upcoming movie starring Ezra Miller that is being forced to contend with the actor’s recent controversies. The upcoming Toronto International Film Festival will close with the premiere of Mary Harron’s “Dalíland,” which features Miller in a small supporting role as a young Salvador Dalí. Ben Kingsley stars in the film more prominently as an adult Dalí. Harron confirmed to Vanity Fair that Miller is not being cut out of the film. “The film was completely finished and wrapped,” Harron said. “It might have been different, especially if we were shooting, if there had been bad behavior during that. But this all happened after the film was not only filmed, but edited and mixed and done. I also felt like everybody shot all those things in good faith. Nothing bad happened during our filming, and the film is the film.”
Damon Lindelof: Make ‘Less Marvel Movies’ So ‘Each One Can Be a Bit More Special’

Zack Sharf Damon Lindelof watches every Marvel movie, but he’s starting to think there’s simply too many of them. The “Lost” and “Watchmen” showrunner joined Vulture’s “Into It” podcast to discuss his preference for endings, which he said is the opposite mentality of the never-ending Marvel Cinematic Universe. Lindelof shared his belief that the sheer number of Marvel movies actually works against the brand because it ends up making each entry feel less special.“It’s always going to be hard because once you’ve got someone’s attention, you want to keep it.
And so the idea of letting it go and not knowing if you’re ever going to get it back again is sort of like it’s antithetical to the way that we’re wired,” Lindelof said about ending film series and TV shows. “From a slightly sort of more cynical standpoint, this is a business,” he continued. “It’s an industry.
And if you make a couple of great Marvel movies, the instinct is, ‘We need to make more Marvel movies, and we need to expand this.’ And I have this sort of interior feeling of like, ‘Wow, I wish they made less because it would make each one that came out a little bit more special. But I watch all of them…People don’t want things to end. I do.”Marvel’s output isn’t slowing down anytime soon.
This year has seen the release of two Marvel movies already (“Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness” and “Thor: Love and Thunder”), and the third and final Marvel movie of 2022 arrives in November with the release of “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.” Over on television, the Aug. 18 launch of “She-Hulk: Attorney at Law” marks the the third Marvel series of the year, and there’s still the “Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special” to come. That makes for 7 different Marvel
