Jon Watts wrote and directed Wolfs, starring Brad Pitt and George Clooney. The story follows two professional fixers, played by Pitt and Clooney.
Though they consider themselves lone wolves, they are forced to work together. One night, their ideologies of working alone and fixing the situation spiral out of control in ways that hopefully make the film entertaining.
It’s good to see Amy Ryan in the trailer. She’s great in Sugar opposite Colin Farrell, which also plays on Apple TV. Austin Abrams is also in the film and seems to have the potential to be hilarious in this movie.
Directed by Nisha Ganatra, Late Night follows two women. Katherine, a late-night talk show host, played by Emma Thompson, suspects she is on the verge of losing her long-running show.
In walks Molly, played by Mindy Kaling, the new staff writer, who is a bit quirky. Sure enough, she slowly builds her trust with Katherine and is in good graces with her. Where the story goes from here is hard to tell from the movie trailer.
I watched the movie last night on Prime with my daughter. Emma Thompson is fantastic, she nails it, as does John Lithgow. However, the story falls flat, and it was not as upbeat as it could be. The script jumped around without intent of where it was headed. Thompson kept the focus and my interest.
Mindy Kaling wrote the screenplay, and it seems funny. We are seeing more and more women buddy movies, and this is another one.
Ganatra directing credits are episodic television shows like Mr. Robot and You Me Her.
The rest of the cast includes Megalyn Echikunwoke, Amy Ryan, and John Lithgow.
The movie clip “Teachable Way” shows how Thompson’s character is so cut-throat with innuendoes.
The second poster shares the spotlight for both of the lead women in the movie. They are so opposite of each other that the poster attracts our attention.
The second trailer shows are the makings of a great comedy. The cast of professionals is stellar. It is obvious that they make their marks. I see a fun movie with some serious social issues staying out of the radar. I look forward to seeing Lithgow and Thompson play off each other as husband and wife.
The third movie trailer is like the second trailer. Only, it explains the story better, and we see more of Lithgow and Thompson together.
The interview with the female stars of Late Night discusses women’s roles in late-night television as hosts and writers, the lack thereof. It is definitely something everyone needs to watch whether male or female. Thompson’s viewpoint of men is funny.
Kaling talks about writing the role for Thompson before she even agreed to play the lead. There is so much more in this interview — don’t pass it up.
The movie clips are adorable and offer insight as to what you can expect when you see that movie at the theater. Thomspon is great in this movie. She nails it.
The studios are callling this the final trailer. It’s flashy and hard sell, but there are some clips we haven’t seen yet, so enjoy.
