Lionsgate Films has pulled the trailer for Francis Ford Coppola's science-fiction drama "Megalopolis" after it was found to use fake quotes from critics.
Coppola took it upon himself to fund the movie himself, including selling his vineyards in Sonoma County, California, in July 2021 for an undisclosed amount.
The skepticism could partly stem from the fact that his recent projects, including "Twixt" and "Tetro," failed to ignite the box office.
Set in a dystopian future, the film scheduled for release in September sees an architect named Caesar (Adam Driver) and the mayor of the imagined US city, New Rome, fight over how to rebuild it following a disaster.
