‘Bones and All’ Trailer: Timothée Chalamet Has an Unusual Appetite

Oscar nominee Timothée Chalamet reunites with his Call Me By Your Name director Luca Guadagnino for Bones and All, based on the novel by Camille DeAngelis. The film, which is coming off an impressive festival run, just unveiled a trippy trailer ahead of its November 23, 2022 theatrical run.

MGM also released a new poster featuring Timothée Chalamet and Taylor Russell (Lost in Space). The cast also includes Michael Stuhlbarg, André Holland, Chloë Sevigny, David Gordon Green, Jessica Harper, Jake Horowitz, and Mark Rylance.

“There is something about the disenfranchised, there is something about people living at the margins of society that I am drawn toward and touched by. All my movies are about outcasts, and the characters in Bones and All resonated with me,” said director Guadagnino. “In that regard, it’s also interesting to me to tackle texture-wise the mid-West in the 80s. The idea of the traveler, the one who roams, the wanderer in this kind of modern setting felt very American to me and seemed to me to be a good place to start making movies in the USA.”

The Oscar-nominated filmmaker has wanted to work with Chalamet since directing him in the critically acclaimed Call Me By Your Name, describing the actor as someone who “has the rare capacity to think not just from the perspective of his own character but from the wider perspective of cinema.”

Guadagnino added: “He is a very curious, very open, very human actor but also, he taps into something very contemporary, which was vital for this film. As Lee, he brings that sense of our times. He reveals the insecurity of Lee but also a compassion that is absolutely heartbreaking.”

Guadagnino serves as a producer on the R-rated thriller along with Chalamet, Theresa Park, Marco Morabito, David Kajganich, Francesco Melzi d’Eril, Lorenzo Mieli, Gabriele Moratti, and Peter Spears. Giovanni Corrado, Raffaella Viscardi, Moreno Zani, Marco Colombo, and Jonathan Montepare executive produce.

The Plot:

Bones and All is a story of first love between Maren, a young woman learning how to survive on the margins of society, and Lee, an intense and disenfranchised drifter; a liberating road odyssey of two young people coming into their own, searching for identity and chasing beauty in a perilous world that cannot abide who they are.

The trailer for Apple TV+’s Raymond & Ray opens with the revelation a father’s last wish was that his sons dig his grave, which is odd but also strangely moving. Ewan McGregor and Ethan Hawke star as half-brothers who weren’t exactly close to each other or their dad before he died, but the trailer teases their relationship will transform as they come to terms with their father’s death.

Maribel Verdú (Now and Then), Sophie Okonedo (Slow Horses), Tom Bower (El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie), and Vondie Curtis Hall (For the People) also star in writer/director Rodrigo Garcia’s new dramedy. Garcia earned a Primetime Emmy nomination for directing the pilot of Big Love. His feature film directorial credits include 2008’s Passengers with Anne Hathaway and Patrick Wilson; 2009’s Mother and Child starring Naomi Watts and Annette Bening; and three-time Oscar nominee Albert Nobbs with Glenn Close.

Oscar winner Alfonso Cuarón, Bonnie Curtis, and Julie Lynn produced, with Shea Kammer and Gabriela Rodriguez executive producing.

Raymond & Ray premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival and will stream on Apple TV+ on October 21, 2022.

The Plot:

Raymond & Ray follows half-brothers Raymond and Ray who have lived in the shadow of a terrible father. Somehow, they still each have a sense of humor, and his funeral is a chance for them to reinvent themselves. There’s anger, there’s pain, there’s folly, there might be love, and there’s definitely grave-digging.

The Apes rise again with a new chapter in the iconic Planet of the Apes franchise heading toward production. 20th Century Studios unveiled a photo teasing the new installment titled Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes and confirmed filming will get underway in November 2022.

The Maze Runner helmer Wes Ball will direct and Owen Teague (It), Freya Allan (The Witcher), and Peter Macon (The Orville) will star. Josh Friedman (War of the Worlds), Rick Jaffa, Amanda Silver (Rise of the Planet of the Apes), and Patrick Aison (Prey) wrote the screenplay.

Joe Hartwick Jr., Rick Jaffa, Amanda Silver, and Jason Reed are producing, with Peter Chernin and Jenno Topping executive producing.

Fox didn’t reveal any plot details but did say the new chapter will pick up many years after the conclusion of 2017’s War for the Planet of the Apes.

“Planet of the Apes is one of the most iconic and storied science fiction franchises in film history, as well as being an indelible part of our studio’s legacy. With Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes we are privileged to continue the series’ tradition of imaginative, thought-provoking cinema, and can’t wait to share Wes’ extraordinary vision for this new chapter with audiences in 2024.” stated Steve Asbell, President 20th Century Studios.

The original Planet of the Apes film, based on Pierre Boulle’s novel, was released in 1968. Four sequels followed over the next five years, and in 2001 Tim Burton took the director’s chair for a remake of the original movie.

The sci-fi franchise was revived in 2011’s Rise of the Planet of the Apes directed by Rupert Wyatt and starring James Franco, Freida Pinto, and Andy Serkis. Dawn of the Planet of the Apes was released in 2014 with Andy Serkis reprising his performance capture role as Caesar alongside Jason Clarke, Keri Russell, and Gary Oldman. 2017’s War for the Planet of the Apes, once again starring Serkis, featured Woody Harrelson and Steve Zahn.

Am I gonna make decisions that are better for me and my family, and me being present with them?’ These are big questions and big choices that she’s gonna have to make. But it also challenges what she has always dreamed about, which is becoming a doctor. So she’s going to be making some big decisions,” said Hinds.

The cast is led by Angela Bassett as Athena Grant and Peter Krause as Bobby Nash. Ryan Guzman plays Eddie Diaz, Aisha Hinds stars as Henrietta ‘Hen’ Wilson, Oliver Stark is Evan ‘Buck’ Buckley, Kenneth Choi is Howie ‘Chimney’ Han, and Jennifer Love Hewitt is Maddie Buckley.

The CW’s dipping back into the world of Supernatural with The Winchesters, a prequel to the popular drama that had an impressive 15 season run. The Winchesters delves into the backstories of John and Mary Winchester, played by Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Samantha Smith in Supernatural. Season one episode one premieres on October 11, 2022 at 8pm ET/PT and introduces the younger versions of John and Mary, played by Drake Rodger and Meg Donnelly.

The season one cast also includes Supernatural‘s Jensen Ackles reprising his role as Dean to narrate the prequel. Nida Khurshid plays Latika, Jonathan “Jojo” Fleites is Carlos, Demetria McKinney stars as Ada, and Bianca Kajlich is John’s mom, Millie.

The Series Premiere Plot: Before Sam and Dean, there were their parents, John and Mary. Told from the perspective of narrator Dean Winchester (Ackles), The Winchesters is the epic, untold love story of how John Winchester (Rodger) met Mary Campbell (Donnelly) and put it all on the line to not only save their love, but the entire world. When John returns home from fighting in Vietnam, a mysterious encounter sparks a new mission to trace his father’s past.

In his journey, he crosses paths with 19-year-old demon hunter Mary, who is also searching for answers after the disappearance of her own father. Together, the two join forces with young hunter-in-training Latika (Khurshid) and easygoing hunter Carlos (Fleites) to uncover the hidden truths about both their families. Their investigation leads them to a rare book emporium, whose owner Ada (McKinney) takes an interest to the occult and could provide the missing pieces to their puzzle.

But secrets run deep for both the Winchesters and Campbells, and despite the best efforts of John’s mother Millie (Kajlich) to protect her son from pursuing a dangerous life of demon hunting, John and Mary are both determined to work together to uphold their families’ legacies while beginning to form a family of their own.

Focus Features’ fascinating new trailer for TÁR feels like an “For Your Consideration” reel promoting two-time Oscar winner Cate Blanchett for Best Actress. Blanchett’s sure to be busy this upcoming awards season; she’s already earned the Best Actress award at the 2022 Venice Film Festival for her performance as composer/conductor Lydia Tár.

Three-time Oscar nominee Todd Field (In the Bedroom, Little Children) wrote and directed the drama which currently sits at 97% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes following its festival run. RogerEbert.com’s Tomris Laffly calls it “a film of rare elegance and sophistication,” and Entertainment Weekly’s Leah Greenblatt describes Blanchett’s work as feeling “less like a performance than a full-body possession.”

TAR opens in select theaters on October 7, 2022 followed by a nationwide release on October 28th.

The Plot: From writer-producer-director Todd Field comes TÁR, starring Cate Blanchett as Lydia Tár, the groundbreaking conductor of a major German Orchestra. We meet Tár at the height of her career, as she’s preparing both a book launch and much-anticipated live performance of Mahler’s Fifth Symphony. Over the ensuing weeks her life begins to unravel in a singularly modern way. The result is a searing examination of power and its impact and durability in today’s society.

The Plot, Courtesy of Starz:

Dangerous Liaisons is a bold prelude of Laclos’ classic 18th-century novel focusing on the origin story of how his iconic characters, the Marquise de Merteuil and the Vicomte de Valmont, met as passionate young lovers in Paris on the eve of the revolution. This modern take on a classic story takes audiences through wonder and terror, beauty and degradation, seduction and deception in pre-revolutionary Paris.

Driven to right the wrongs of their past, the young couple’s survival depends on their skills of seduction and manipulation of not only the French nobility but of each other. Alice Englert and Nicholas Denton portray the notorious lovers: Camille who is taken in by the current Marquise de Merteuil (played by Lesley Manville) navigates her own path in a world of men, using the power of secrets to take back control, and Valmont who will stop at nothing to regain his title that was recently taken from him. Their on-again-off-again love story is the heart of the series. It’s not love… it’s war.
