The third and final installment in the sweeping interplanetary saga helmed by Denis Villeneuve<\/a>\u2014 who is also set to direct the next Bond movie<\/a>\u2014will conclude the story of Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet’s<\/a> Paul Atreides, with Zendaya, Florence Pugh, Josh Brolin<\/a>, Rebecca Ferguson and Jason Momoa among the returning cast. Expect more giant sandworms, Zendaya kicking ass, and scenes of Chalamet’s Atreides hoovering up space P=psychedelics, aka \u201cmelange.\u201d Back when he was writing it, Villeneuve said<\/a> that this film wouldn’t be \u201clike a trilogy,\u201d and would be \u201csomething that feels different and has its own identity,\u201d which presumably means that we’ll at least get something of a time jump, if not a complete stylistic shakeup.<\/p>\n

Werwulf<\/p>\n

December 25<\/p>\n

It feels as though a creepy new Robert Eggers<\/a> joint has become a bi-annual staple of the cinematic calendar over the last decade; we look forward to his curious horror creations like few other filmmakers working today. (For good reason\u2014between The Witch, The Lighthouse, The Northman, and Nosferatu, he’s four-for-four.) And with a cast featuring regular Eggers players Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Lily-Rose Depp, Willem Dafoe and Ralph Ineson, Werwulf sounds like classic Eggers territory, throwing it back to 13th-century England for a gothic and gory take on lycan folklore.<\/p>\n

The Moment<\/p>\n

2026 TBD<\/p>\n

A24 is teaming up with music video director Aidan Zamiri\u2014whose videography includes \u201c360\u201d and \u201cGuess\u201d by Charli XCX<\/a>, plus \u201cBirds of a Feather\u201d by Billie Eilish\u2014to make what sounds like a tantalisingly meta mockumentary about a pop star who embarks on her \u201cfirst headlining tour,\u201d per the official synopsis. But that’s kind of burying the lede, because the protagonist of The Moment is played by Charli herself, in what will be her first major movie role. The rest of the cast? Like the VIP after party at a big pop concert, it’s a crazy stacked affair: Alexander Skarsg\u00e5rd<\/a>, Kate Berlant<\/a>, Kylie Jenner, Rachel Sennott, Isaac Cole Powell, Shygirl, and Rosanna Arquette are all set to appear, among others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The third and final installment in the sweeping interplanetary saga helmed by Denis Villeneuve\u2014 who is also set…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":295601,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[64,63,2331,9779,134,344,1671],"class_list":{"0":"post-295600","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-culture","11":"tag-digital_syndication","12":"tag-entertainment","13":"tag-movies","14":"tag-textbelowcenterfullbleed"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/295600","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=295600"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/295600\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/295601"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=295600"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=295600"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=295600"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
