Good afternoon Insiders, Max Goldbart here following another busy week in our world. Read on for our dissection of the biggest headlines.
Market in flux: Andreas Wiseman and Zac Ntim here as The American Film Market (Nov 1-6) returns to Santa Monica as an in-person event next week after being forced online for two years due to the Covid pandemic.

Movies are being made and there is positivity about new ways of getting them made, and about most businesses diversifying their portfolios, but questions over the role and viability of a market like AFM remain.

CAA Media Finance and Village Roadshow Pictures will co-rep U.S. with FilmNation handling international. Other hot titles heading to AFM include Pawel Pawlikowski’s next feature, The Island (working title), which is set to star Joaquin Phoenix and Rooney Mara. Temple Hill Entertainment, producers of the box office hit Smile, are lining up new horror Clown In A
