Ryan Gosling's departure from the project is attributed to a scheduling conflict, as the film's release date was shifted from June 12, 2027, to November 19, 2027.

Worthington describes his career as bizarre, stating, 'I've never had a plan in that regard. I think people have looked at my career and gone, 'What the f*** is he doing?''

The role, which spanned nine films, put him up among the world's highest paid actors and made him a global pin-up. Yet the confidence was, in part, a construction. The character you see in interviews, he says, easing into the chaise longue, and the presentation of myself over the last two decades working in Hollywood, it's me but it's a creation too. It's what I thought people wanted to see.

Is that his character from Babylon? No, that guy's dead (sorry). Is it Bullet Train 2? No, that movie doesn't exist yet. Toward the end of the trailer, however, Pitt's character slams down an Academy Award and that's when it all hit: That's Cliff Booth, the character for which Pitt won his Best Supporting Oscar in Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time ... in Hollywood. Booth is back, but this time he's on Netflix.

If you are the type of Oscars obsessive who sets an early alarm on nominations morning (guilty!), you may have noticed something curious last month: before the announcement began on the Academy's Instagram Live, the comments were already filling up with Brazilian-flag emojis. And for good reason. "The Secret Agent," the acclaimed film by the director Kleber Mendonça Filho, walked away with four nominations—not just Best International Feature, for which it was Brazil's official submission, but also Best Picture, Best Actor (Wagner Moura), and a brand-new category, Best Casting.

The esteemed film-maker was licking his wounds: his most recent picture, Far from the Madding Crowd, which imbued its 19th-century rural characters with an anachronistic King's Road style and panache, had flopped stateside. Childers approached the date with mixed feelings. He adored Schlesinger's previous movie, the jazzy Darling, starring Julie Christie as a model on the make, and had seen it three times.
