Dead Man’s Wire

www.imdb.com/title/tt15181326 : film is out in January 2026.

 
'Check out the Dead Man’s Wire trailer for this upcoming film starring Bill Skarsgård, Dacre Montgomery, Colman Domingo, Cary Elwes, Myha’la, and Al Pacino.

Based on a true story, the 1977 kidnapping of a prominent banker grips the nation and turns the abductor into an outlaw folk hero. As the media frenzy peaks, the standoff becomes a spectacle of desperation, defiance and blurred justice, which resonates even today.

Dead Man’s Wire, directed by Gus Van Sant, opens in theaters in January 2026.’

A thread for ‘Upcoming Film & TV’ content…

 
Whether Sci-Fi & Fantasy, action & adventure, thrillers & chillers, espionage, light hearted fun, comedies, independent films, or ‘under the radar’ TV content, or simply any moody or atmospheric ‘out there’ material.

It may hopefully help some of us suffering with the old age, forgetfulness, not being on social media much etc… in overlooking or simply being unaware of the likes of season 5 of Stranger Things aired last week - and a fair few other shows too (The Witcher, the new Dr Who spin-off series news & trailers, and the return of Scrubs). So I thought it may be worth having a thread on here for anything that is ‘coming soon’ that may be of interest to us on here to keep tabs on…
 

If anyone knows of a good site that lists new and upcoming Films and TV Series… let’s have 'em. 👍

Please post up any teasers or trailers for film or TV - or a link to IMDB - so we can all get a gist of what it is about etc.

Claudia Black won’t be in Ahsoka Season 2…

“Well, I’m going to be transparent. They picked up season two, picked me up with it, and then Disney, which is structuring things differently these days, could not pay me what I needed to be paid as a single mother to keep all my responsibilities going at home in Los Angeles, because they were filming in London. It was not something that they could make happen, and therefore, I had to bow out for season two.”

35mm Film Formats Explained

www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pema-zdPF2g - a 12 minute video from the In Depth Cine youtube channel.
 

The blurb: ‘By far the most popular film format is 35mm. But what you may not know is that there are then 3 further format choices that need to be made between: 2-perf, 3-perf or 4-perf. But what is a perf and how does it affect both the budget and how the footage looks?’

Damn. I called this back in 2021. Hope its true.

If so, this will be a day long remembered…

We’ve been calling for this for so long. The 50th anniversary is our best hope. And it seems like it may actually be happening.
