When Covid hit in 2020 and Hollywood screeched to a hard stop, small businesses that service the film and TV industry didn’t know what to do or how long it would last, but they had places to turn. Local governments offered Ppp funds to those struggling, businesses could maintain a modest baseline income, and as Hollywood collectively worked to develop Covid protocols, some businesses even brought on extra staff to accommodate the demand and new cleaning measures.

On the heels of yesterday’s news that Robert Elswit will be reteaming with Dan Gilroy after Nightcrawler for the Denzel Washington-led drama Inner City — presumably counting him out of Paul Thomas Anderson‘s next feature, shooting around the same time — we have more enticing cinematography-related updates, and we’ll start with the most expected first.
After working on all of his films except for Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, three-time Oscar winner Emmanuel Lubezki will reteam with Alfonso Cuarón for his next project. It was revealed earlier this month that the Children of Men and Gravity director would be heading back to his roots for a drama that chronicles a year in the life of a middle-class family in Mexico City in the early 1970s. With shooting to kick off this fall, an Instagram post (seen below) informs us that Lubezki is already underway with camera tests for the film.
