“Superpower,” the documentary feature film co-directed by Sean Penn and Aaron Kaufman and credits Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as its writer, will stream exclusively over Paramount+ in the United States beginning September 18. In chronicling Ukraine’s bloody and devastating war to maintain its independence from Russia, the film is described as “a heart-wrenching glimpse into a country fighting for its freedom” and features a series of intimate interviews conducted by Penn with Zelensky during seven trips made by Penn over the past two years.

The movie documents the months before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022, the hours leading up to the moment that Russian President Vladimir Putin launched rockets into Kyiv and the devastating aftermath that continues today.

Sean Penn’s “Superpower,” the actor’s upcoming documentary about Ukraine’s fight to maintain its freedom from Russia, is set to premiere on September 18. The film will be available to watch exclusively on Paramount+.
Co-directed by Penn and Aaron Kaufman, the documentary features several interviews between Penn and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky over the production’s seven trips to the country over the past two years. The film chronicles the months before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the hours leading up to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s decision to launch rockets into Kyiv and the devastating aftermath.
“Superpower” has followed an unconventional road.

Producer Sergei Bespalov is suing Robert Rodriguez, accusing the director of causing production delays that led to $20 million in cost overruns on the 2014 film Sin City: A Dame to Kill For.
The suit, filed Monday in California Superior Court, alleges a “pattern of misbehavior” that resulted in the film running over budget, and damaged its financial prospects. (Read it here)
“When the dust settled, SC2 Productions ended up financing almost $15 million in cost overruns over the approved budget Rodriguez had agreed to, and was obligated to, work within when filming Sin City 2,” the suit contends. “SC2 Productions should not have to shoulder the costs of Rodriguez’s false representations, failure to perform and many egregious breaches of various contracts related to the film.”
The Sin City sequel, starring Mickey Rourke and Jessica Alba, brought in just $39.4 million in worldwide box office proceeds, well short of its $65 million budget, according to IMDBPro.

Things didn't exactly go too well for Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller's Sin City: A Dame To Kill For when it was released in theaters back in August. The movie was largely dumped on by critics (a big contrast compared to the reception of the first movie back in 2005) and then it completely underwhelmed at the box office (another big contrast). And as if that situation wasn't bad enough, now even more is going wrong behind the scenes. Robert Rodriguez and his affiliate companies have filed a lawsuit against the financiers of both Sin City 2 and Machete Kills, claiming that he never received a payment of $7.7 million that was promised to him. The lawsuit has been filed specifically against Sergei Bespalov, Marina Bespalov, Maddartico, Vrelonovama, Aldamisa Entertainment and SC2 Productions, alleging both breach of contract and fraud. Variety notes that part of the claim says that the filmmaker was...

Having spent much of the past decade in blockbuster territory, Jon Favreau is returning to his roots this year, switching gears to bring us the independent comedy, Chef.
The film debuted to warm early reviews at SXSW last month, and with its release right around the corner across the Atlantic, the first trailer has finally debuted over on Apple, giving us a flavour (pun half-intended) of what we can look forward to in a few weeks’ time.
Chef is the story of Carl Casper, who loses his chef job and cooks up a food truck business in hopes of reestablishing his artistic promise and family.
Favreau is joined by a terrific cast, headed up by Sofía Vergara, John Leguizamo, Scarlett Johansson, Oliver Platt, Bobby Cannavale, Amy Sedaris, and Emjay Anthony, with Dustin Hoffman and Robert Downey, Jr. rounding things off.

Fantastic Fest has announced that Robert Rodriguez‘s grindhouse sequel Machete Kills will open their 2013 film festival.
In Machete Kills, Danny Trejo returns as ex-Federale agent Machete, who is recruited by the President of the United States for a mission which would be impossible for any mortal man - he must take down a madman revolutionary and an eccentric billionaire arms dealer who has hatched a plan to spread war and anarchy across the planet.
This year’s Fantastic Fest runs from September 19-26, 2013. The movie opens on October 4th, and I'm sure it will be just as absurdly fun as the first movie.

Machete Kills was originally set for release on September 13th, but Open Road Films has now moved it to October. While no reason was provided for the release date change, the movie will now open on October 4th against Gravity, the Warner Bros. sci-fi film that stars George Clooney and Sandra Bullock. We believe the date change may have to do with the fact that Sin City: A Dame to Kill for was recently pulled from its October slot.
“Open Road Films will release Machete Kills – directed by Robert Rodriguez (Machete, Sin City, Spy Kids franchise) and starring Danny Trejo, Michelle Rodriguez, Sofia Vergara, Amber Heard, Charlie Sheen, Lady Gaga, Antonio Banderas, Jessica Alba, Demián Bichir, Alexa Vega, Vanessa Hudgens, Cuba Gooding, Jr., William Sadler, Marko Zaror and Mel Gibson…

Scarlett Johansson has signed on to make her directorial debut adapting the nearly-lost Truman Capote novel "Summer Crossing" at Aldamisa.
The story follows a 17-year-old Debutant who decides to pursue romance with a Jewish valet parking attendant instead of traveling through Paris during a 1945 summer heat wave in New York.
Capote never published the book, opting to trash the manuscript. A janitor in his building salvaged it and the work resurfaced at auction in 2004.
Oleg Boyko, Sergei Bespalov and Barry Spikings will produce. Shooting begins in the first half of next year.
