Sizzling Samachar: ‘Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire’ to release in over 5000 locations overseas; Ben Wheatley to expand the ‘Meg’ franchise after the third film; Christopher Nolan will not direct any more superhero films

Welcome to Sizzling samachar your daily dose of entertainment news. I'm your host Nikhil. Top stories first.

‘Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire’ to release in over 5000 locations overseas 

Bahubali star Prabhas is set to star in the highly-anticipated Telugu film Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire. The film recently released its first-look trailer and reportedly broke viewership records amassing over 100 million views within hours of its release. It has now been revealed that the film will be released in over 5000 overseas locations, including 1979 locations in North America. The makers have claimed that this marks an all-time record for any Indian release. The action thriller directed by Prashanth Neel also stars Prithviraj Sukumaran and Shruti Haasan among others in prominent roles. 

 

Ben Wheatley to expand the ‘Meg’ franchise after the third film 

Meg 2: The Trench, the sequel to the 2018 sci-fi thriller film The Meg, is set to release in theatres on August 4th this year. Jason Statham reprises his role as Jonas Taylor, the man who is tasked with stopping a Megalodon shark that is wreaking havoc across the oceans. Director Ben Wheatley has confirmed that he is already in discussions for a third film, as he believes that the franchise has a rich world to explore. And fans of blood-curdling thrillers would like to strongly concur with this.  

 

Christopher Nolan will not direct any more superhero films

Christopher Nolan’s highly-anticipated film Oppenheimer is set to release in theatres this weekend. Nolan revealed during the media trailer for the film that he will never helm a TV project. When quizzed about potentially directing a superhero film in the future, the celebrated filmmaker replied with a firm “no’. The news will be disheartening for superhero fans as Nolan is credited with The Dark Knight trilogy, which is considered by many as the best superhero franchise of all time.  However, Nolan refused to provide a definitive answer as to whether he will direct a Star Wars film in the future. Let’s just say we can’t get enough of Nolan’s works on the big screen.

The 55-year-old comedy actor has recently announced that he will be featuring in two comedy sequels: Welcome 3 and Jolly LLB 3. Warsi was the lead in Jolly LLB , the first film in the franchise where he played a relentless lawyer who goes the length to seek justice for his clients. Warsi was however replaced by Akshay Kumar in Jolly LLB 2, a sequel that didn’t quite size up to the first film in terms of a compelling story and box office performance. Warsi is best known for comedy hits such as Munna Bhai M.B.B.S and its sequel Lage Raho Munna Bhai where he played the affable Circuit along with Sanjay Dutt.

Warner Bros. and DC’s latest big-budget release The Flash has suffered a disastrous run at the box office since its premiere on June 16th. To add insult to injury, the film suffered a 72% drop in ticket sales in the following week and is expected to fall well below its production budget by the end of its theatrical run. And to compound matters, the Ezra Miller-led Andy Muschietti film has reportedly leaked online. A Twitter handle uploaded the entire film in HD and received over 1.7 million views before Twitter eventually took down the video. DC’s new era under James Gunn has begun with back-to-back flops, and two more DC films, Blue Beetle and Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, are scheduled to release in 2023. 

Well that's all we got for today's episode , until the next time it's your host Nikhil signing out.

Im your host Nikhil. News from Hollywood first. ‘Blue Beetle’ will be part of the new DC Universe, confirms director In the wake of The Flash’s disastrous theatrical run, there is a growing sentiment that the lack of clarity surrounding James Gunn’s vision for DCU has damaged the film’s chances of success at     the box office. So it’s hardly surprising that the studio is now concerned about subsequent DC films such as Blue Beetle and the Aquaman sequel which could potentially suffer the same fate as The Flash. This seems even more likely considering the fact that the universe is being rebooted by James Gunn’s 2025 film Superman: Legacy. However, Blue Beetle director Angel Manuel Soto has confirmed that his film will be part of the new DCU, contradicting earlier reports that Superman: Legacy will be the first film of the new universe. Blue Beetle starring Cobra Kai star Xolo Maridueña is scheduled to release on August 18 this year. Let’s hope it packs a pow and a punch and isn’t marred by The Flash’s dismal theatrical performance.   Tenoch Huerta upcoming Netflix film amidst sexual assault allegations  Black Panther: Wakanda Forever star Tenoch Huerta has exited Netflix’s upcoming film Fiesta en la Madriguera. The news comes in the wake of sexual assault allegations against the Mexican actor by musician and social activist María Elena Ríos. Huerta has denied the allegations levelled against him and announced that he would be stepping away from the Netflix project so that the controversy does not affect the film’s production.    ‘Nine Perfect Strangers’ renewed for season 2 and eyes new cast members  The Hulu original series Nine Perfect Strangers has officially been renewed, nearly two years after the first season premiered. Hollywood star Nicole Kidman will reprise her role as Masha Dmitrichenko, the founder of a wellness resort that opts for a rather unconventional approach. The studio is reportedly in talks with several actors, including Murray Bartlett, Liv Ullman, Aras Aydin, Maisie Richardson-Sellers, and Dolly de Leon to star as the new ‘strangers’ for season two.  Jacob Elordi and Cailee Spaeny to star in biopic on Priscilla Presley Euphoria star Jacob Elordi is set to star alongside Mare of Easttown actress Cailee Spaeny in the upcoming film Priscilla. The film is a biopic on Priscilla Presley, the wife of legendary rock star Elvis Presley. The film is based on Priscilla’s memoir Elvis and Me and is directed by Academy Award-winner Sofia Coppola. Elordi will star as the King of Rock n’ Roll while Spaeny will essay the role of the titular character. The film is expected to release this year.   'Extraction 2' breaks streaming record for 2023 Chris Hemsworth’s latest action film Extraction 2 has become one of Netflix’s biggest-ever film releases. The streaming giant announced that the Sam Hargrave directorial has become Netflix’s biggest film debut of 2023.

Ranveer Singh’s sports film 83, based on the heroic performance by the Indian cricket team at the 1983 World Cup, may not have impressed at the box office when it released, following multiple setbacks due to the pandemic. But it appears the film is now set to be bestowed with a unique honour later this year. The inspiring tale of how the underdog Indian cricket team overcame the mighty West Indies team at the 83’ World Cup is set to be screened at the Lord's Cricket Ground in London, which is revered as the most prestigious cricketing venue in the world. It also makes it a relevant space as it is here that Kapil Dev and his men lifted the World Cup, marking India’s first historic win in the international contest.
