Is this gonna go ahead?


Wasn't it supposed to film in summer?

It's in preproduction, rumors still have it filming soon.

Cumberbatch talked about it after the Oscars last week. He mentioned that he's working again with Brad Pitt with the Lost City of Z this summer.

More about Gray:

It’s been over two years since “The Immigrant” made its world premiere at Cannes, and writer/director James Gray is hard at work getting "The Lost City Of Z" ready to shoot later this year. Nevertheless, he managed to find the time to stop by film critic Peter Labuza’s podcast “The Cinephiliacs” for a candid hour-long chat.

Having talked about the importance of storytelling early on in the episode, Gray singles out “Nights of Cabiria” for its astonishing simplicity and how it still manages to evoke “a vaguely operatic silent film feeling."

But there’s more than just a great story in 'Cabiria,' with Gray also noting its remarkable subtext.

The poverty of post-war Italy is always in the foreground, as well as Italy’s current political situation and yet, Fellini’s film is really about empathy in the end. Like Gray says “you cannot do much more than make a work of art that says, ‘I’m going to show you what it’s like to walk in another man’s shoes.’”

Makes me think about how he's going to present TLCOZ.

Looks like it's already been completed based off that trailer.

What's missing in movies is same as in society: a good sense of work ethic and living up to ideals.
