🎸 THE BEATLES ARE COMING BACK TO CINEMAS. 

Four films. Four perspectives. One legendary band.

Fresh from wrapping THE IMMORTAL MAN, Cillian Murphy is teaming up with Daniel Craig and Michelle Williams for Damien Chazelle's mysterious new prison drama—and the buzz is already deafening.

Production starts later this year through Chazelle's Wild Chickens Productions, with Paramount distributing, but details remain sparse beyond the prison setting. 

For Murphy, it's another chance to do what he does best: portray men under impossible pressure with that signature intensity and precision. A contained prison environment with Craig and Williams? 

That's not just a movie—that's a masterclass waiting to happen.

Barry Keoghan has arrived.

The Dublin actor who made us unable to look away in SALTBURN is now going head-to-head with Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, and Halle Berry in CRIME 101 — and he's not just keeping up, he's stealing scenes.

This isn't just another role—this is Keoghan proving he belongs among Hollywood's heaviest hitters, taking his Love/Hate juice straight to LA and reminding everyone that sometimes the hungriest actor in the room is the most dangerous one.

Paul Mescal and Josh O'Connor are bringing something truly special to THE HISTORY OF SOUND 🎵✨

The two actors sang, reminisced, and opened up about this intimate musical journey. Recording onto actual wax cylinders gave them a tangible connection to their characters' world—the fragility of the medium mirrors the fragility of memory itself.

They revealed which Beatles song their characters would love and discussed the upcoming Beatles biopics. What emerges most powerfully is the chemistry between them—THE HISTORY OF SOUND is ultimately about how music becomes the language through which we express what words cannot capture 🎬🎶
