It is. Perhaps his last before his Netflix deal starts.

Yep, Ferrell and Julia Louis-Dreyfuss remake of Force Majuere for Fox Searchlight. Surprised it wasn't taken in Div A

All depends on release date. If it ends up in awards season, it's a great pick. If not, it'll probably fall flat at the box office.

I'll take the Blumhouse movie Relive aka Only You and hope it's one of the many placeholders on the schedule.

Well the original was definitely not box-office friendly, and even in English with this cast, unless they dramatically change the subject and tone of the film, I don't see the film as having any breakout potential at the box-office.

Yeah, I agree with my fellow A-Division-ers. I looked at it but the dark, satirical nature of the original, plus Ferell's fading profile, plus the Disney merger, made me wonder about its potential.

I think Screen is grounded.
