Creators of Dark Share Trailer for New Series 1899: Watch
Baran bo Odar and Jantje Friese, the creators of the smash hit German series Dark, are back with an English-language follow-up that promises to be just as mysterious and twisted. 1899 is coming to Netflix later this year, and the first teaser trailer is out now. 1899 — not to be confused with the Yellowstone prequel 1883 — stars Emily Beecham (Hail, Caesar!) as Maura Franklin. According to the official logline, “Multinational immigrants traveling from the old continent to the new encounter a nightmarish riddle aboard a second ship adrift on the open sea.” The teaser only hints at what this “nightmarish riddle” might entail, but it definitely seems to be small and pyramid shaped, judging by the trailer’s opening image and recurring triangular typograp...

Dreams and Nightmares Run Wild in New Teaser Trailer for The Sandman: Watch

Tom Sturridge stars as Morpheus, The Sandman himself, and early in the teaser he offers his own introduction. “I am the King of Dreams,” he says softly. “Ruler of the Nightmare Realm.” Initially seen in the first look from last year, this teaser offers another glimpse of the occult ritual that summons Morpheus to Earth.

Netflix to Stop Greenlighting “Vanity Projects” Like The Irishman
With subscribers declining and competitors on the rise, Netflix has had to find ways to compensate and adjust to the State of Streaming in 2022. One way they plan to do that, executives said, is to make “bigger and better” movies, ultimately releasing fewer overall than the excessive output they’ve accrued in recent years. That also means the era of exorbitantly expensive vanity projects — like Martin Scorsese’s 2019 crime drama The Irishman, which had a $175 million price tag — is over. With massive names like Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci, and Al Pacino in its cast, The Irishman felt like an easy grab for visibility (albeit an entertaining one). But execs at Netflix say these massive prestige pieces are more voracious than they’re worth: “This tendency to do anything to attract talent a...
