Ever since Knives Out, I have been excited for more murder mysteries. I've been somewhat disappointed with a lot of the recent movies/tv in the genre, but I'm hoping this one can bring something different and smart!
The real question is, when the robot goes crazy, will the protagonist die, freak out but escape in the end, over out of terror, or be a supportive accomplice? The last one would be the most interesting and unique spin on it, I think.

Coming off of Apple TV+’s Masters of the Air and a villainous role in Denis Villeneuve’s Dune: Part Two, Butler is now back on the big screen in Jeff Nichols’ long-awaited 1960s crime drama, The Bikeriders.
And while Butler led the star-studded ensemble alongside Jodie Comer, he plays a character named Benny who absolutely refuses to take the reins of his Chicago-area motorcycle club as it loses its way into organized crime.
Well, Nichols, who’d already faced countless obstacles in bringing his sixth film into fruition, asked his lead actor if he could instead go the way of the bald cap, something Butler and Dune: Part Two producers ultimately obliged.
From Tarantino and Elvis director Baz Luhrmann to Villeneuve and Nichols, Butler’s impressive résumé of auteur filmmakers continues to grow by the day, and the newest addition to his filmography is Ari Aster and his upcoming A24 film, Eddington, co-starring Joaquin Phoenix, Emily “Emma” Stone and Pedro Pascal.
Below, during a recent conversation with THR, Butler also explains how The Bikeriders implanted the motorcycle bug in him, before offering his thoughts on Benny’s brazen manner of wooing Comer’s character, Kathy.
That’s a good point that you made there, and as human beings, we definitely thrive when we find ways that we love to kill time with like-minded people who have similar passions.

That was the vibe on the morning of June 17 when Disney Entertainment co-chairman Alan Bergman cracked open the champagne to toast those who had worked on the making and marketing of Inside Out 2, which is the year’s first box office blockbuster.
For its part, Pixar delivered a film that has won over both critics and audiences in continuing the story of Riley, who is now 13 and must contend with a new crew of emotions invading her head in addition to the old standbys, led by Joy (Amy Poehler).
Everybody has turned 13, or will, and you’re going to be flooded with a whole new set of emotions,” says recently promoted Walt Disney Studios exec vp of marketing Martha Morrison, who ran the campaign (she was also in charge of Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, which had been one of the few solid swings of summer).
Inside Out 2 is on fire across Latin America and is pulling in near-record numbers in numerous markets, including Mexico, where it earned $30.2 million to rank as the second-biggest start of all time.
The marketers knew they were going to get younger adults based on the response to early teasers and so, among other things, organized a “college footage tour” and screened the first 35 minutes of the film at 20 universities in the U.S.
The nostalgia factor is also in full force overseas, including in South Korea where young affluent women knowns as “YAFs” wield huge consumer power.

A central London cinema has cancelled a private screening of a film which was entirely written using artificial intelligence (AI) following a public backlash.The Prince Charles Cinema in Soho was due to host the world premiere of The Last Screenwriter, which was created by ChatGPT, on Sunday.However, when concerns were raised by people about "the use of AI in place of a writer", the cinema announced that the screening had been axed.In a statement shared on Instagram, it said the response by its customers "speaks to a wider issue within the industry".
Created by Peter Luisi, the movie has been marketed as the "first feature film written entirely by AI".It follows a celebrated screenwriter called Jack who finds his world shaken when he encounters a cutting-edge AI scriptwriting system.After initially being sceptical, Jack realises the AI matches his skills and surpasses his empathy and understanding of human emotions.The people behind the production have said they "wanted to find out if artificial intelligence is able to write an entire feature film and how good this film would be if produced by a professional team".
In a statement, the Prince Charles Cinema said it had been told the film "was an 'experiment in filmmaking' by a filmmaker hoping to engage in the discussion about AI and its negative impact on the arts.
"The film's content reflected this, so the hire team took the booking.
"It explained the screening was subsequently cancelled following feedback which "highlighted the strong concern held by many of our audience on the use of AI in place of a writer".
"Our decision is rooted in our passion for movies and listening to those who support what we do," the cinema added.The use of AI featured as a central point of contention in the strike by the US actors' union Sag-Aftra last year, which brought much of Hollywood to a standstill.It continues to be a major concern for many in the entertainment industry, with programmes like ChatGPT relying heavily on copyrighted material for their development.The issue has now made its way to the UK government's in-tray, with MPs calling for interventions to ensure artists receive fair compensation when their work is used by AI developers.
