Megalopolis Archives

Francis Ford Coppola's highly anticipated film Megalopolis has been generating buzz not only for its ambitious storyline and marketing tactics but also for its star-studded cast Now, Coppola is revealing that fellow filmmaker Martin Scorsese actually played a pivotal role in his decision to cast Adam Driver in the film's lead role. Writer/Director Francis Ford Coppola[...]

If you're hoping the new one-minute trailer that IGN got for Megalopolis is going to give you the elevator pitch for what this movie is about, you're out of luck It seems that Lionsgate and whoever is behind this marketing has decided the best way to go about pitching a very complex film to the[...]

Lionsgate has finally released a new trailer for Megalopolis after the first one had to be taken down because it featured fake quotes from prominent critics It appears that everyone involved decided the easiest thing to do would be to cut all of those fake quotes and pretty much keep the trailer the same as it was[...]

We are mere weeks away from the release of Megalopolis, but you wouldn't know that by looking at the marketing material We used to have a trailer, but ever since that whole fake quote thing happened, Lionsgate hasn't released a new trailer. Perhaps it's because director Francis Ford Coppola only commissioned so much marketing material, and now they[...]

The domestic release of Megalopolis is right around the corner, and to say that things aren't going well in the lead-up might be the understatement of the century There have been some serious allegations about incidents that allegedly took place on set, and even video evidence of these incidents has tainted the production in a way that[...]

Cannes always has some interesting stories coming out of it, whether it is some unknown film coming in out of nowhere and blowing everyone out of the water, a sure thing completely falling on its face and potentially ruining any chance it had at the box office later that year [looking at you Indiana Jones[...]
