recently said of Koepp, “There’s a reason he’s the most successful screenwriter in history”). And that’s what we’ve got in “Kimi,” a paranoid techno-thriller debuting Thursday on HBO Max.
“Kimi” stars Zoë Kravitz as Angela, an agoraphobic young woman in Seattle working for a start-up introducing a new digital assistant named Kimi. Her job is to scrub through janky audio recordings; one day she comes across a recording that rattles her to the core – did a woman seemingly record her violent attack? Did Angela become the ear-witness to a murder?TheWrap talked with Koepp about what it was like working with Soderbergh, how the pandemic factored into the film’s development, and what Koepp thought of “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” which featured his Spider-Man (Tobey Maguire), back in action.It should also be noted that Koepp is an equally talented novelist; his first novel (“Cold Storage”) is being turned into a movie later this year (Koepp wrote the script) and his sophomore novel, “Aurora,” is set to debut this summer.
(We refer to both during the interview.)How did it take so long for you and Soderbergh to work together?David Koepp: I don’t know. I’ve known him for 30 years, because our first films were “Apartment Zero” and “sex, lies, and videotape.” “Apartment Zero” was my first movie with Martin Donovan, and “sex, lies…” was “sex, lies…” and they were on the festival circuit together.
And he was winning all the festivals, but we were at them. I don’t think we actually met then; we were trying to figure out when we first met the other day, but we couldn’t come up with it.
It was some point in the late ’80s. And then I think we became friends because … well, we were, and so I think at one point I tried to get him to do “Death

Tom Holland is spilling some secrets from the set of Spider-Man: No Way Home!
Benedict Cumberbatch is learning about the sheer power of Marvel fan demand.
Two months after its release, the latest Spider-Man movie is still making history.
Though the two films came out 12 years apart and under dramatically different circumstances for movie theaters, both were able to take advantage of a lack of competition and overwhelmingly strong word-of-mouth to bring moviegoers back again and again for repeat viewings. While “Avatar” started with a modest opening and then continued to reign as No.
Rebecca Rubin Film and Media Reporter“Spider-Man: No Way Home” has officially unseated director James Cameron’s 2009 science-fiction epic “Avatar” to become the third-highest grossing domestic release in history.After weeks of speculation over whether or not Peter Parker had the legs to bump the people of Pandora from bronze, “Spider-Man: No Way Home” collected the remaining $1 million on Monday to push “Avatar” — and its mighty $760.5 million at the North American box office — to fourth place in the record books.Sony’s latest Spidey adventure, a culmination to Tom Holland’s web-slinging trilogy, has grossed a stunning $760.9 million at the domestic box office since launching exclusively in theaters in December. Those ticket sales are three times as much as the next highest-grossing movie of the pandemic era, which is Disney and Marvel’s “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings” with $224 million.
According to early industry estimates this morning, Sony’s Spider-Man: No Way Home has beat the $760.5M take of James Cameron’s 2009 sci-fi spectacle Avatar to become the third highest grossing movie at the domestic box office with an estimated running total of $760.9M. This feat comes after a solid $1.6M Valentine’s Day haul for the Jon Watts-directed, Tom Holland-Zendaya-Benedict Cumberbatch starring movie at 3,300 theaters. Sony has yet to make the record official this morning.
Fish gotta swim, birds gotta fly and Steven Soderbergh just gotta keep on making films, which he does with his 33rd feature narrative title, Kimi, in which the central character’s intense agoraphobia very neatly overlaps with the all-enveloping presence of Covid. It’s a piece that feels like it was quickly made in the heat of the moment and creatively benefits from that edge. The film is also bolstered by the unsettling disruptions of norms, the feeling that the continuation of everyday existence is extremely tenuous. It’s a tight, taut little thriller—the third film Soderbergh has made under Covid conditions–that defines our times as the moment when communication via electric devices has superseded personal one-on-one contact. In this regard, the film clearly represents the time and place it was made.
There could be more Daredevil in the future.
THR that director Jon Watts even built an applause break into his appearance in the “Spider-Man” sequel. “Jon said, ‘I have built in this moment where we reveal you, and no one speaks for a few beats because the audience will have a big reaction.” Watts turned out to be exactly right.But there was also a “Daredevil” Easter egg that was left on the cutting room floor.
Sony Pictures Television and WarnerMedia have extended a content deal that will see the likes of Spider Man: No Way Home and Ghostbusters: Afterlife made available on HBO Max and HBO channels across Central Eastern Europe.
Owen Gleiberman Chief Film CriticFor a couple of decades now, Steven Soderbergh’s “little” movies — the lo-fi dramas, often quirky thrillers, that he makes as palette cleansers in between his higher profile projects — have been a pleasurably idiosyncratic, off-on-his-own-cloud thing. Some of them are good (like “Bubble” and “Side Effects”), some are meh (like “Haywire”), and one is great (“The Girlfriend Experience”); none of them make much of an impact in the marketplace.
Adam B. Vary Senior Entertainment WriterIt should not be shocking in the least that “Spider-Man: No Way Home” failed to earn an Academy Award nomination for best picture.
