MADDEN: il nuovo trailer fresco di zucca, no, zecca! With NICOLAS CAGE & Christian Bale!
Un grande, immarcescibile Nic Cage. Unico, esagerato, insopportabile, mitico!
Bob DE NIRO sarà, cioè will be, eh eh, Tommy Lee Jones? No, La sorda! Leggete e ascoltate bene, sordi.
From Deadline:
With Paramount Pictures Mr. Irrelevant already gaining buzz prior to its holiday opening, Skydance Sports is looking to hit a home run with its next big pic on one of the more iconic baseball figures in the past 50 years. Sources tell Deadline that Oscar winner Robert De Niro is in talks to play Tommy Lasorda, the legendary Dodgers manager, in a new sports pic going by the working title Tommy & Me with Reid Carolin directing for Skydance Sports.
There are no details yet as to the approach the film will take in chronicling Lasorda’s story.
The script is by George Gallo, Cambron Clark and Carolin. Skydance Sports is serving as lead studio, with Jesse Sisgold, Jason T. Reed, Sandino Moya-Smith producing for the company, alongside Mandalay Pictures’ Peter Gube, Intuition Productions’ Keri Selig and Diane Galardi, and Reid and Garret Livetz for Free Association.
An iconic ambassador for the Dodgers organization, Lasorda began his career as a player for the Philadelphia Phillies, embarking on a brief stint in the U.S. Army and going back to the minor leagues before making his way to the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1949. He spent most of his brief playing career in the minors, though he pitched for a time for both the Dodgers and the Kansas City Athletics.
Lasorda’s greater impact on his sport came behind the scenes in the Dodgers organization, where he elevated over time from scout to minor-league manager to the major-league coaching staff. He joined as third-base coach in 1973 — under Hall of Fame manager Walter Alston — became the Dodgers’ manager in 1976 and led the club until 1996. During his time as manager, he guided Los Angeles to four National League pennants and World Series championships in 1981 and 1988.
Lasorda was named National League Manager of the Year in 1983 and 1988, managed four All-Star Games, was named to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1997 and saw his No. 2 jersey retired by the Dodgers. After retiring from the Dodgers dugout, he managed the U.S. baseball team at the 2000 Sydney Olympics, leading the squad to defeat the heavily favored Cuba and win gold. His reputation as one of baseball’s most beloved and recognizable figures only grew with age. A passionate ambassador for both the Dodgers and the city of Los Angeles he died in 2021 at 93.

From Deadline:
Danish director May El-Toukhy’s Woman Unknown has won the Golden Lion for best film at the 83rd Venice Film Festival.
In main competition prizes, Lee Chang-Dong has scooped the Grand Jury Prize; bombshell Israeli documentary Naza, which drew a record breaking 25-minute ovation has won the Special Jury Prize, while Ilya Khrzhanovsky has clinched Best Director for Dau.
Hotly tipped John Malkovich won Actor for his performance in Wild Horse Nine, which will further fuel to Oscar hopes for the actor. The actor, who is currently on set, was unable to make to the ceremony so sent a video message instead.
Mathilde Arcel won best actress for performance as a nanny and housemaid hiding a dangerous secret in post World War Two Denmark in May El-Toukhy’s psychological thriller Woman Unknown, the only film directed by a solo female director in competition.
In the Orizzonti section, Best Film went to Ann Sirot and Raphaël Balboni’s Diana in the Loop about a young woman who decides to avenge the rape of her mother, which took place three years before she was born.
Other notable prizes in the sidebar included Best Actress for Laleh Marzban for her brave hijab-less performance in Iranian drama Falling House as a young woman whose dreams of pursuing a modelling career outside of Iran are thwarted by a tyrannical prison guard father.
She dedicated the prize to all the women of Iran declaring in Farsi that the country was going through one of the most painful and difficult times of its history.
“I want to mention the people of my homeland, Iran, who are living under the greatest pressure ever. I would like to dedicate this award to the women of my country, who have paid the highest price for even the smallest form of freedom. Today more than ever, they continue to carry forward their dreams, their courage, and their hope,” she said.
Italian actor Riccardo Scamarcio won Best Actor for his performance in The House of the Monkey as a the father devoted of a disabled son, who becomes increasingly close to his teenage nephew seeing in him the son he always wished for. The film also won Best Screenplay for director Tommaso Landucci and cowriter Damiano Femfert.
Scarmarcio dedicated his prize to all the fathers in the world as well as UK producer Jeremy Thomas whose death at the age of 77 was announced earlier in the day.
The Lion of the Future – Luigi De Laurentiis Award for a Debut Film went to Cameroonian-French director Auguste Bernard Kouemo Yanghu’s House of the Wind exploring the impact of migration to Europe. The drama revolves around 80-year-old Josette who lives alone in Yaoundé, Cameroon, having encouraged her to leave in search of better lives elsewhere.
Tonight’s ceremony, hosted by Italian actors Greta Scarano and Nicolas Maupas, ends a politically charged 83rd edition with a record-breaking ovation for bombshell Israeli documentary Naza and a warm response to Penélope Cruz and Javier Bardem in Bunker among the many highlights.
Other memorable moments included Lifetime Achievement Golden Lion Awards for George Clooney and Ellen Burstyn.
Maggie Gyllenhaal and her jury will mete out eight prizes including the Golden Lion for best film. The winners of the Orizzonti sidebar, Venice Classics and Immersive competition, the Lion of the Future – Luigi De Laurentiis Award for a Debut Film, will also be announced this evening.
