If reactions to Warner Bros. Discovery’s next superhero tentpole are to be believed, then…maybe! Anthony Breznican caught an early screening of the film this week, where director Andy Muschietti introduced the movie—and addressed star Ezra Miller’s chaotic behavior and mental breakdown, which hit the actor after filming was completed. “Ezra is well now. We’re all hoping that they get better,” said Muschietti. At CinemaCon, meanwhile, audiences seemed to eat the film up: The opening action sequence, Jordan Hoffman reports, was met “with a few actual gasps. Pretty much anything involving Michael Keaton as Batman also got deserving applause: the costume reveal, the Batmobile, the music cues.”
Elsewhere in HWD, Hoffman has the lowdown on Warner Bros. Discovery’s entire CinemaCon panel; Lisa Liebmancatches up with the always great Michael McKean, while David Canfield does the same with Barry’s Stephen Root;and on Little Gold Men, Kelly Fremon Craig talks adolescent trauma and adapting Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret.
