Actor/writer/director Nia Vardalos on the set of My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3, a Focus Features release. Courtesy of Yannis Drakoulidis / Focus Features My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3 is the first film in the series to be directed by its creator and star, Nia Vardalos. It’s only the second film Vardalos has directed — the first, I Hate Valentine’s Day, was all the way back in 2009. So, as she prepared herself to step behind the camera for My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3, Vardalos told us she went through a rigorous routine to get herself back in a directorial groove, and it all started with her script.

Did we need a My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3? Somebody thought so. Sure, the first one was charming, a word-of-mouth surprise hit romantic comedy, with both laughs and love in a big, close Greek-American family, when a young woman, Toula Portokalos (Nia Vardalos), upends family expectations by marrying a non-Greek man, Ian Miller (John Corbett). There has already been one sequel, and despite the sequels’ titles, Toula is not getting married again, as she is still married to that first non-Greek guy from the original movie.

It’s a big fat Greek reunion with third entry in the My Big Fat Greek Wedding franchise. The official My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3 trailer reveals Fotoula ‘Toula’ Portokalos (writer/director/actor Nia Vardalos) is keeping a promise to her late father to take the family back home and locate his old friends.
Among those reprising their roles are John Corbett as Ian Miller, Elena Kampouris as Paris Miller, Gia Carides as Nikki, Joey Fatone as Angelo, Louis Mandylor as Nick Portokalos, Lainie Kazan as Maria Portokalos, and Andrea Martin as Thiea Voula.

Taylor Russell devours every morsel of her time on screen in “Bones and All,” the new film from director Luca Guadagnino about teen cannibals. Russell plays the young, flesh-hungry Maren, and in a key scene where co-star Timothée Chalamet (as Maren’s love interest) makes a stunning confession about his past, the two unlock a vulnerability that was Russell’s favorite part of filming. “That scene had a lot of weight to it,” Russell recalls. “There was a levity there that was really beautiful, and I love watching Timmy [Chalamet] do his thing. You can only control so much and then you must let go and allow everything else to influence you.”
On this episode of the award-winning Variety Awards Circuit Podcast, we talk to Russell about her role in “Bones and All,” as she discusses what it was like to work alongside Chalamet and Mark Rylance, as well as her...

“My Cannibal Romance” or “The Fine Young Cannibals” might be alternate titles for this film except that it suggests comedy rather than the high-concept horror film that Bones And All really is. Starring Timothee Chalamet and Canadian actress Taylor Russell as a very different kind of star-crossed lovers, Bones And All does two surprising things: combining romance with horror in a very different way and creating a new kind of monster beyond the usual vampires, werewolves and zombies.

Vampires are experiencing a resurgence, thanks to AMC’s Interview with a Vampire and Peacock’s Vampire Academy, while zombies are on the decline. And the question now is, can cannibals fill the void left by the exit of The Walking Dead et al? If Mimi Cave’s Fresh and Luca Guadagnino’s Bones and All are any indication, then, yes, cannibals are prepared to gnaw their way into our horror-loving hearts.
Bones and All is weird and warped, and am I wrong when I call it the first legitimate coming-of-age cannibal love story? The gore’s delivered in ample servings, but there’s such an amazingly sweet love story flowing through Bones and All’s veins that even those who don’t normally like their dishes served rare will...

“I didn’t read the script as a horror script,” says Oscar nominated filmmaker Luca Guadagnino about his 1980s-set cannibal love story, Bones and All.
The pic, starring Timothée Chalamet and Taylor Russell as lost souls with a particular taste, who are roaming the flyover states, is gripping and topsy-turvy to the say the least. Mark Rylance plays a deadpan elder with a penchant for the flesh, taking creepy to a new level.
The United Artists Releasing title, which notched Guadagnino a Silver Lion at the Venice Film Festival and Russell the Marcello Mastroianni Award, hits theaters on Nov. 23.
“‘I love you and want to eat you’ — It’s almost as bananas as that,” says Guadagnino about the connection between amore and cannibalism.
“It’s part of our way of expressing our deep passion for something: ‘I love you to death. I will eat you because I love you so...

MGM has acquired the worldwide distribution rights to “Bones and All” a new film reteaming “Call Me By Your Name” director Luca Guadagnino and star Timothée Chalamet.
“Bones and All” was shot in the Ohio Tri-State area in the spring of 2021, and it is the first feature film Guadagnino has filmed set in the U.S. It also stars Taylor Russell, Mark Rylance, André Holland, Jessica Harper, Michael Stuhlbarg, David Gordon-Green, Francesca Scorsese and Chloë Sevigny.
No specific release plans were laid out, though Guadagnino said in a statement that the film will be seen “in theaters.” The news comes as last week Amazon closed its deal to acquire MGM and placed MGM’s film group chairman Michael De Luca as part of an interim leadership structure reporting to Amazon Studios and Prime Video SVP Mike Hopkins.

After picking up an Oscar nomination for her adapted screenplay of Elena Ferrante’s novel “The Lost Daughter,” Maggie Gyllenhaal joins a very short list of three women who have been nominated for acting and writing. She previously scored a nod in 2011 for her supporting performance opposite Jeff Bridges in “Crazy Heart.”
“My mother told me this, so you might have to fact-check it,” Gyllenhaal told TheWrap with a laugh, admitting she wasn’t aware she had just made history. Her mother was correct – only Ruth Gordon and Emma Thompson have been cited in both writing and acting categories in the past. “If that’s true, that is my favorite thing,” Gyllenhaal said. “I’m so thrilled to be in that club.”
And while we’re on the subject of Gyllenhaal’s mother, there’s another bit of history making going on. Gyllenhaal and her mom, Naomi Foner, are the...

It is uncommon for directorial debuts, such as Maggie Gyllenhaal’s strikingly distinctive The Lost Daughter, to be as sure handed as this film is or as well put together in almost every aspect, such as the film’s brilliant lead performance courtesy of Olivia Colman.
While on holiday in Greece, Leda (Colman) appears remarkably attentive to the interactions between a young mother (Dakota Johnson) and her daughter, also vacationing on the same beach. As Leda observes the mother and daughter, as well as their extended family, she reminisces about her own memories of early motherhood and the choices she made that eventually brought her to the place she is today.
These flashbacks show Leda as a young mother, now played by Jessie Buckley, who we quickly see is overwhelmed by the demands that motherhood has thrust upon her as she desperately tries to forge her own path as an academic.

Olivia Colman gives a gripping, multi-layered performance as an enigmatic middle-aged woman, who seems haunted by her past, in the tense drama The Lost Daughter. The Lost Daughter is the directorial debut of Maggie Gyllenhaal, and her decision to cast Colman proves to be a brilliant one, as Colman’s remarkable performance makes the film.
Colman plays Leda, a literature professor who is vacationing alone at a seaside Greek resort. Early on, an awkward phone call with a daughter, who cuts her off abruptly, raises questions about how much of her solitary status is Leda’s own choice.
Ed Harris plays Lyle, the friendly caretaker of Leda’s vacation rental but her prickliness and brisk politeness suggest she is not interested in socializing. She tells people she encounters this is a working vacation, and takes her text...

After being attached to a mountain of projects, Luca Guadagnino finally embarked on a new film, reuniting with Timothée Chalamet and Michael Stuhlbarg. No, it’s not a Call Me By Your Name sequel, which the director seems to have moved on from for reasons that may be rather obvious. Instead, it’s Bones and All, a new drama also starring Taylor Russell and marking the director’s first film shot in America.
With an ensemble featuring Mark Rylance, André Holland, Jessica Harper, Chloe Sevigny, Francesca Scorsese, and director David Gordon Green, the project is an adaptation of Camille DeAngelis’ novel by A Bigger Splash writer Dave Kajganich.
The 1980s-set story follows Maren Yearly who is on a cross-country trip with Lee, an intense and disenfranchised drifter, as “she searches for the father she’s never met in an attempt to understand why she has the urge to kill and...
