At the back end of 2022 it was announced that the 1996 hit Twister would be getting a sequel in 2024. So it should perhaps come as no surprise that similar movies are starting to release in 2023. Supercell would be one of those movies.
The start of the movie shows a young couple storm chasing, while it is made clear that they are doing this for scientific reasons, and not just as thrill-seekers. Unfortunately, the male of the couple ends up dying when he gets too close to a tornado and we shoot forward a number of years to his now grown-up, son and his mother. After discovering his fathers, notebook, he wants to lead the way in the scientific field and runs off to find...

If 1996's "Twister" taught us anything, it's that storm chasing is not only exhilarating, but when things go wrong it makes for one hell of a natural disaster movie. In 2024, we'll be treated to "Twisters," the long-awaited follow-up to "Twister," which is looking to capitalize on the success of legacy sequels, similar to "Top Gun: Maverick." But before that disaster epic touches ground and lays waste to the box office, another group of reckless storm chasers, led by none other than Alec Baldwin, will be heading directly into the eye of the storm for our viewing pleasure.
"Supercell" is a disaster movie from director Herbert James Winterstern, previously known for his work on NBC's "Siberia." Alongside Baldwin, the movie stars Skeet Ulrich, Jordan Kristine Seamón, Daniel Diemer, and in one of her final performances before her tragic passing in 2022, Anne Heche.

"There's a dark side to this, and your father crossed over from time to time." Saban has released a second official trailer for the storm chasers thriller movie Supercell, set to open in theaters and on VOD later this month. The first trailer arrived a few weeks ago, with this next one being labeled as a "Director's Trailer" - meaning the director must've edited himself to better represent the film. This thriller is inspired by real life stories of storm chasers as well as the tour agencies that end up caught up in dangerously real trouble all for a profit. A teenage boy runs away to follow his father's footsteps - the legendary storm chaser Bill Brody, played by Richard Gunn - when a powerful storm arrives. He wants to try to carry on his father's spirit by going out on research chases, too. Stormcell stars Daniel Diemer as William Brody,...

"He chased for knowledge, not thrill." Saban Films has revealed an official trailer for a storm thriller titled Supercell, made by a first-time filmmaker named Herbert James Winterstern. The poster for this has some ridiculously cheesy tornado art, but the movie seems to be a more grounded, realistic look at the intense life of storm chasers. Seemingly inspired by real life stories of storm chasers as well as the tour agencies that end up caught up in dangerously real trouble. A teenage boy runs away to follow his father's footsteps - the legendary storm chaser Bill Brody, played by Richard Gunn - when a powerful storm arrives. He wants to try to carry on his father's spirit with some tornado contraption. Stormcell stars Daniel Diemer as William Brody, with Skeet Ulrich, Anne Heche, Jordan Kristine Seamón, Anjul Nigam, and Alec Baldwin. This doesn't look as cheesy as so many other weather movies recently,...

Dori Media Group (Dmg) has sold Israeli drama “Normal” to WarnerMedia in Latin America, where the series will be available on HBO Max. the series premiered in November of last year on Israel’s Hot, pulling strong reviews and ratings, finishing the year as one of the broadcasters top three most-watched dramas. Based on the true story of series co-creator Lior Dayan, the series kicks off with its protagonist at a low point, committed to a psych ward after a nervous breakdown fueled by drug use. There, the writer battles with personal demons and receives treatment while facing the harsh reality that he is totally normal, a standard superseded by his father, filmmaker, actor, and artist Assi Dayan, and grandfather, defense minister Moshe Dayan. “Normal” played in competition at last year’s Series Mania in the festival’s International Panorama section.

The thing about military brats is that we’re chameleons. We’re from nowhere, and we’re from everywhere. Because I spent my teenage years in Hawaii, that’s usually where I say I’m from, since it truly formed who I am today. But I can also say I grew up in Oklahoma. And the Philippines. There’s a bit of Chicago in me from college. And really, having now been an Angeleno for a quarter century, L.A. is my adopted home. Ultimately, to borrow the title of Luca Guadagnino’s recent HBO series, I guess “We Are Who We Are.”
Guadagnino created the series as an exploration of teens and self-identity, particularly when it comes with the fluidity of gender. And young stars Jack Dylan Grazer and Jordan Kristine Seamón do a terrific job of portraying what it’s like to be figuring out exactly who they,...

Two beloved HBO series are over.
I May Destroy You and We Are Who We Are -- both envisioned as limited series -- will not become ongoing series, it has been announced.
HBO boss Casey Bloys revealed the news in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
While both were limited series, HBO has a knack for finding ways to bring those types of shows back for additional seasons.
In recent memory, the premium cabler has extended limited series such as Big Little Lies and Perry Mason, but it seems like the door is closed on both of the above shows returning.
"Luca Guadagnino is off doing other projects, so I don't know. There are no plans at the moment for Season 2," Bloys told THR of a potential We Are Who We Are Season 2.
"There's no update on Watchmen. And on I May Destroy You, Michaela Coel is thinking about what she wants to do next.

Film Independent’s First-Ever Spirit Award TV Nominations Successfully Figure Out What ‘Indie TV’ Is
When Film Independent announced last fall that it would add several TV categories to this year’s Spirit Awards, perhaps the biggest question was, “What is Indie TV?”
Ultimately, with no budgetary cap (unlike the $22.5 million limit in film), and with most TV projects coming from major networks and studios, Film Independent president John Walsh told me at the time that it would come down to a “smell test”: “aesthetic, original provocative subject matter, unique voice and diversity. The types of work that we celebrate on the film side, and TV side, they’re going to look very similar. … Somehow these singular voices are finding their way into television and making a mark on the culture. We are remiss if we don’t celebrate that.”

Filmmaker Luca Guadagnino has made a splash at the Golden Globes in the past. His Italian drama “I Am Love” (2010) was nominated for Best Foreign Language Film, and then “Call Me by Your Name” (2017) picked up three bids for Best Film Drama and for Timothee Chalamet and Armie Hammer‘s performances. But neither of those films took home any trophies. Could Guadagnino finally win for his move to series television with “We Are Who We Are” on HBO Max? He wouldn’t be the first big-screen auteur to win on the small screen.
“We Are Who We Are” bears some resemblance to “Call Me by Your Name,” Guadagnino’s biggest Globes success so far. Both are about queer American teenagers coming of age in Italy. In “We Are,” it’s Fraser (Jack Dylan Grazer), whose mother (Chloe Sevigny) is the new commander of a US Army base in Italy. Fraser...

The first season of We Are Who We Are, Luca Guadagnino’s first television show, just wrapped; all eight episodes are now available on HBO. The series follows American 14-year-olds Fraser (Jack Dylan Grazer) and Caitlin (Jordan Kristine Seamón) who live on an Italian army base during the 2016 election. As a frisson of cultural fracas spills over, Fraser and Caitlin liberate themselves from the noise. The supporting cast includes substantial performances from Chloë Sevigny, Kid Cudi, Francesca Scorsese, Tom Mercier, and Alice Braga, making it one of 2020’s best series.
We spoke with Guadagnino about the personal importance of places his series in 2016, what it means for him not to judge characters society calls deplorable, Luca’s refusal to storyboard, and the status of a sequel to Call Me by Your Name, along with ideas for Suspiria: Part 2 (spoiler: he never expects to make it).

We Are Who We Are was many things: a coming-of-age tale, a love story, and an examination of military culture in the very recent past, among others. It was also a story of transitions and shifting identities, set on an Army base trying to approximate an American experience on Italian soil, and with a central character — sometimes called Caitlin, sometimes Harper (and always played, brilliantly, by newcomer Jordan Kristine Seamón) — trying to figure...

[Editor’s Note: The following review contains spoilers for “We Are Who We Are” Episode 8, “Right Here, Right Now 8, and Last.”]
The old saying goes, “a promise made is a promise kept.” But for Fraser (Jack Dylan Grazer) and Caitlin (Jordan Kristine Seamón), two teenagers living in defiance to the status quo, their promise is made stronger by not being kept. Early in the series, when the two burgeoning friends told each other they would never kiss, little did either know the kind of journey they’d go on together; that Caitlin would explore the world as Harper, that Fraser would become their righteous defender, or that they’d find such a powerful connection in each another.
But taken beyond the duo’s growing devotion, their promise was always antithetical to their outlook. Sure, it helped at the time; eliminating a prospective romantic component freed them from worrying about whether they were flirting or not, dating or not, attracted to each other or not,...

Luca Guadagnino’s first foray into television, the HBO drama “We Are Who We Are” makes overt its connection to the 2016 presidential election throughout the first season’s run.
An early episode sees a building-sized Donald Trump giving a stump speech that’s broadcast to even the most remote corners of America — the U.S. military base in Italy where the series is set, for instance — and his surprising triumph over Hillary Clinton marks a major turning point in the sixth episode, casting a dark shadow over the show’s dreamy, romantic coming of age story.
“I think being a contemporary show, it would have been completely generic to make it in a generic time,” Guadagnino said in an interview with TheWrap. “Life is happening while we are doing it. How can I know what people are being and where they are if I’m shooting while they are there?...

Luca Guadagnino often relies on a distinct period of time to frame his stories — and not just for projects set long in the past. His contemporary films, like “I Am Love,” often take place years before they were shot in order to give the filmmaker “a little perspective” on the people, places, and events he’s capturing.
“I’m committed to a sense of reality. I think that it’s important,” Guadagnino said in an interview. “I believe that reality is everywhere. It’s all around us. It’s above us, below us, left, right, center, everywhere. And more often than we expect, the urgency of reality — [as seen] through the media, for instance — doesn’t hit us the way the media believes [it does].”

The most fascinating arc of Luca Guadagnino’s sprawling portrait of multigenerational angst “We Are Who We Are” belongs to breakout star Jordan Kristine Seamón. In her first screen role ever, the 17-year-old actress plays Caitlin, the American daughter of a military family living on a base in Italy circa 2016. She’s a commanding presence, tacitly taking in the world around her, but also blunt and armed with opinions. “News flash, I exist outside your head,” she tells her new best friend Fraser (Jack Dylan Grazer), a bold declaration that sets the course for her coming of age as a Gen-Zer, who’s forced to grow up fast.
Seamón’s character is also wrestling with her gender identity, and that begins to manifest physically, as she shaves her entire head early in the season. Seamón really did that.
“That was the very first scene that we shot. Every time you...

We Are Who We Are is the best type of film experience, says the HBO limited series’ star Jack Dylan Grazer: voyeuristic. “[The] ignorance of any cameras anywhere or any equipment. It’s just spying on lives. You [can] capture it realistically. It’s that type of approach which allowed Oscar-nominated director Luca Guadagnino to document real human interactions and authentic expressions of love.
In that sense, Guadagnino said during the show’s panel at the virtual PaleyFest Fall TV Previews event, he hopes the audience can see themselves in the characters conducting their lives when the eight-part series premieres September 14 on HBO and HBO Max.
The coming-of-age story, from HBO and Sky Atlantic, centers on two American teenagers who, along with their military and civilian parents, are living on an American military base in Italy.

Luca Guadagnino has been adamant in interviews that his new HBO series “We Are Who We Are” is different than his feature “Call Me by Your Name.” Both projects are set in Italy and follow teens as they come to terms with their sexuality, but the filmmaker has said “Call Me” is “about the past seen through the prism of a cinematic narrative” and “We Are Who We Are” is “about the here and now.” Regardless, the two projects do have something in common: Timothée Chalamet and Armie Hammer.
New York Times carpetbagger Kyle Buchanan was the first to confirm Guadagnino snuck his “Call Me by Your Name” actors Chalamet and Hammer into “We Are Who We Are” after eagle-eyed viewers noticed a background extra in episode three who looks identical to Oscar nominee Chalamet.

The Paley Center for Media’s annual fall television event has moved beyond “previews.” This year, the robust slate will include some sneak peeks at upcoming series, such as Hulu’s “Monsterland” and Netflix’s “Emily in Paris,” but it is also celebrating shows that already launched — and weeks earlier — such as Netflix’s “Away,” Fox’s “Filthy Rich” and HBO’s “We Are Who We Are.”

The San Sebastian audience became the first in the world to see all eight episodes of Luca Guadagnino’s HBO and Sky Italy’s eight-part series “We Are Who We Are.”
The second episode of the series aired on HBO in America this week. The media had only received the first four episodes to review in advance. Thus, it was at San Sebastian Film Festival, where Guadagnino is president of the competition jury, that the acclaimed director fully unveiled what he calls “my new movie” to the world.
At a press conference in San Sebastian, Luca Guadagnino revealed that he sees “We Are Who We Are” as a film rather than a series, that he used digital technology to give the story a contemporary aesthetic and the show is an American “Paradise Lost,” signaled by the election of President Trump. He also weighed in on the new Academy Award qualification rules.

In the third episode of “We Are Who We Are,” Luca Guadagnino’s living teen travelogue, two young high schoolers lay face up in a canoe. Fraser (Jack Dylan Grazer) is reading a book of poetry, and his new friend Caitlin (Jordan Kristine Seamón) asks him why — when you’re an American living abroad, laying under the warm Italian sun, floating mere inches from cool water, why spend your time reading poetry?
“The same reason I hate your clothing,” Fraser snaps back, referencing his designer t-shirts and her sporty apparel. “It’s fast fashion. [With my clothing,] I’m looking for something that means something. It’s the same with poetry. Every word means something.”
The same can be said for every word, shot, and sequence that makes up the unique yet universal HBO series “We Are Who We Are,” including this scene. The conversation is timeless — who hasn’t questioned a snobby friend about their high-minded choices?...

Watch “We Are Who We Are” with the volume up.
There are no high speed car chases or swelling orchestras in the new HBO/Sky drama. From co-creator and director Luca Guadagnino, the series centers a wandering pack of teenagers living on an American military base in an otherwise sleepy little Italian town circa 2016. And yet, the intimate filming and layered sound design makes “We Are Who We Are” feel more like an immersive experience than most action movies could dream of. As Guadagnino’s camera quite literally follows its wayward subjects throughout their days, we weave in and out of earshot of overlapping conversations, of characters losing themselves in the music pumping through their tinny headphones, of low voices sneaking through the cricket croaks hanging thick in the humid air. It’s so visceral as to become unsettling — but what else is being a teenager like, if not immersive,...

‘We Are Who We Are’ Full Trailer: Luca Guadagnino’s HBO Series Tackles Sexuality and Gender Identity
“We Are Who We Are,” Luca Guadagnino’s first television series, is an Italian-set coming-of-age drama about two teenagers discovering their sexual identities, but that doesn’t mean the filmmaker is simply riffing on his Oscar-winning 2017 gay romance “Call Me by Your Name.” As the filmmaker told Variety in an interview earlier this year, “I will never complain about people’s laziness, but that [comparison] sounds very lazy. ‘Call Me by Your Name’ is about the past seen through the prism of a cinematic narrative and this is about the here and now. This is about the bodies and souls of now. I think they are so different.”
So what is “We Are Who We Are”? The series centers on two characters who befriend each other on an Italian military base. “It” and “Shazam” breakout Jack Dylan Grazer plays Fraser, an introverted 14-year-old who moves to the base from New York with his military mothers,...
