Joe Script Rejected:Max Landis (Chronicle, American Ultra) wrote a G.I. Joe script. Paramount passed. This is the second time Landis has had a G.I. Joe script rejected by a studio.

The Jean-Claude Van Damme martial arts classic. Remake. A24. Michaela Coel. Our reaction: What? Why? How? Also... we're intrigued!Bloodsport (1988) is a perfect schlocky action movie. Can you remake it? Should you? With Michaela Coel's dramatic talent and A24's arthouse sensibility, this could either be something totally unexpected.Source: Variety💰 David Zaslav's $887 Million WBD Payout:David Zaslav, the CEO who destroyed HBO Max, canceled Batgirl, and laid off thousands of workers, is walking away from the WBD sale to Paramount with $887 million. Nearly $900 million. While everyone else loses their jobs. This is late-stage capitalism. This is why people are radicalized. This is obscene.
