Emma Stone, hot off her Best Actress Oscar-winning performance in Poor Things, reunites with that film’s writer/director Yorgos Lanthimos for Kinds of Kindness. The first teaser trailer doesn’t give away much of the plot, instead showing off clips of a fast car, a body being dragged in a hallway, a slap, a dance, and a German Shepherd. The only dialogue is a voice-over by Stone saying, “This is it. The moment of truth. Isn’t it wonderful?”
Lanthimos’ latest film also features Poor Things‘ Willem Dafoe and Margaret Qualley. Jesse Plemons, Hong Chau, Joe Alwyn, Mamoudou Athie, and Hunter Schafer also star.

Academy Award-nominated director Yorgos Lanthimos' new film, Kinds of Kindness, has just debuted its first trailer.
The first teaser doesn't give too much about the story, but Lanthimos' directing style is unmistakable. The 46-second teaser for the film begins with Emma Stone's character speeding in a purple Dodge Challenger with Eurythmics' "Sweet Dreams" playing in the background and is later seen dancing in a parking lot. The other cast members also get a brief glimpse displaying different emotions. Aside from Stone, Kinds of Kindness also stars Willem Dafoe and Margaret Qualley, both of whom were in Poor Things.

There’s a whole lot of slapping, dancing, freaking out, and reckless driving in the new teaser for Yorgos Lanthimos’ upcoming movie Kinds of Kindness, which is set to hit select theaters on June 21.
The new clip for the film doesn’t offer, well, anything in the way of plot, but it is a tantalizing look at the film’s absolutely stacked cast. Emma Stone is doing some seriously reckless driving, as is Jesse Pelmons, who’s also getting slapped in the face by Margaret Qualley. Set to the Eurythmics...

Poor Things stars Emma Stone and Willem Dafoe reunite with Yorgos Lanthimos for the first look at Kinds of Kindness.
A teaser for the “triptych fable,” previously titled And, gave fans a first look at the film, which in its official synopsis follows “a man without a choice who tries to take control of his life; a policeman who is alarmed that his wife who was missing-at-sea has returned and seems a different person; and a woman determined to find a specific someone with a special ability, who is destined to become a prodigious spiritual leader.”
“This is it. The moment of truth,” says Stone in a voiceover as a purple sports car drifts. The 45-second teaser gives glimpses at each of the film’s stars, many of whom are previous Lanthimos collaborators — Margaret Qualley, Joe Alwyn, Hong Chau, Mamoudou Athie and Hunter Schafer.

"This is it - the moment of truth." Searchlight Pictures has revealed an official teaser trailer for the next new Yorgos Lanthimos film titled Kinds of Kindness, ready for release this summer. Lanthimos filmed this with Emma Stone and an ensemble cast after shooting Poor Things but before that debuted last year. This is expected to premiere at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival in May, though it hasn't been announced yet. Kinds of Kindness is described as a strange anthology film with three segments - following a man without choice who tries to take control of his own life; a policeman who is alarmed that his wife who was missing-at-sea has returned; and a woman determined to find a specific someone with a special ability. The exquisite cast includes Emma Stone, Jesse Plemons, Willem Dafoe, Margaret Qualley, Hong Chau, Joe Alwyn, Mamoudou Athie, Hunter Schafer, and Krystal Alayne Chambers. Oh my yes,...

The Greek auteur is at it again! Here’s the first trailer for Kinds Of Kindness, Yorgos Lanthimos’ first film after Poor Things.
It’s only been a few weeks since Yorgos Lanthimos’ Poor Things took home several Oscars, including Best Actress for Emma Stone. You’d think that the Greek director would like a little break, but there’s no rest for the wicked – or, more to the point, for Lanthimos either.
We reported a while back that Kinds Of Kindness, which seems to have been previously titled And, was set as Lanthimos’ next film and that it would take the form of an anthology. The film has changed its title to Kinds Of Kindness, and we’ve now got a very brief teaser trailer ahead of the film’s June release.

It’s fun to think that when Emma Stone and Yorgos Lanthimos were on the Oscar campaign trail during the early months of the year, they already had a new project under their belts. “Kinds of Kindness” marks the third straight feature collaboration between actress and director (and Searchlight Pictures) after “The Favourite” and “Poor Things,” both of which won their leading performers, Olivia Colman and Stone, Best Actress Oscars.
The first teaser for this new joint was released this morning and it’s one of those 46-second clips that tells you absolutely nothing but flashes a ton of cool imagery in your face. Set to a remixed version of “Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)” by the Eurythmics, we see Stone zooming around in a purple muscle car (and dancing in an empty parking lot), a close-up of a dog in black and white, Jesse Plemons getting whapped across...

When director Yorgos Lanthimos and actress Emma Stone make a feature film together, Academy Award nominations follow. Their 2018 collaboration The Favourite was nominated in the Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Production Design, Costume Design, Cinematography, and Editing categories, with supporting actresses Stone and Rachel Weisz also earning nominations and lead actress Olivia Colman taking home an Oscar for her performance. Their 2023 collaboration Poor Things racked up nominations in the Best Picture, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, Original Score, Cinematography, Editing, and Supporting Actor (Mark Ruffalo) categories – and won Oscar gold for Makeup and Hairstyling, Production Design, Costume Design, and Stone’s performance in the lead role. Now a teaser trailer has arrived online for the latest Lanthimos / Stone team-up, a film called Kinds of Kindness (previously known as And), and you can check it out in the embed above.

If you were bowled over by Poor Things – or are a long-term Yorgos Lanthimos fan, who’s been on board for Dogtooth, The Lobster, The Killing Of A Sacred Deer and The Favourite – today’s your lucky day.

Fans of Arthouse Emma Stone Sicko Cinema™, have I got good news for you. Coming off her second Oscar win, the "La La Land" star is currently in the midst of shooting what's sure to be a strange and twisted spin on the Western genre in the shape of Ari Aster's "Eddington." But before we lay our eyes on the "Midsommar" and "Beau Is Afraid" director's latest oddity, Stone herself will reunite with her "Poor Things" and "The Favourite" helmer Yorgos Lanthimos for a new project.
Titled "Kinds of Kindness," Stone and Lanthimos finished shooting their new film near the tail-end of 2022, which is the reason it's already good to go so soon after "Poor Things" once again stirred up the "Are Sex Scenes Necessary?" discourse. The movie sees Lanthimos directing from an original script he co-penned with his "Dogtooth," "The Lobster," and "The Killing of a Sacred Deer...

Yorgos Lanthimos is examining the kinds of cruelty in his latest film “Kinds of Kindness.”
The feature, which was originally titled “And”, marks Lanthimos’ eighth film and reunites the auteur with two-time Oscar winner Emma Stone following her recent “Poor Things” Best Actress win. Stone previously garnered her first Oscar after starring in Lanthimos’ “The Favourite.”
While the plot details for the Searchlight Pictures release remain elusive, we do know that “Kinds of Kindness” is an anthology film with three separate storylines that collide. Stone stars alongside her “Poor Things” co-stars Willem Dafoe and Margaret Qualley, plus Jesse Plemons, Hunter Schafer, Joe Alwyn, Hong Chau, and Mamoudou Athie.
“It’s great to be working again with Emma,” Lanthimos told The Guardian about the project. “It makes it so much easier to have someone there who trusts you so much, and who you trust so much.” The duo are next set...

Quickly following up last year’s Poor Things, we’ll be getting Yorgos Lanthimos’ next feature sooner than expected as Kinds of Kindness arrives this summer. Featuring a reunion with Emma Stone, Willem Dafoe, and Joe Alwyn, with an ensemble also including Jesse Plemons, Margaret Qualley, Hong Chau, Mamoudou Athie, and Hunter Schafer, the anthology feature presents three short stories in which the actors play different characters in each. Now, ahead of a June 21 release and likely Cannes Film Festival debut, Searchlight Pictures has unveiled the first trailer.
Here’s the synopsis: “Kinds Of Kindness is a triptych fable, following a man without choice who tries to take control of his own life; a policeman who is alarmed that his wife who was missing-at-sea has returned and seems a different person; and a woman determined to find a specific someone with a special ability, who is destined to become a prodigious spiritual leader.

Elemental's world features unique elemental cultures, not based on real-world societies. Integration between different elements in the film is shown as beneficial and beautiful. Director Peter Sohn drew inspiration from his immigrant family's story for the film's themes.
"What is Elemental about?" is the question on many fans' minds when it comes to Pixar's 27th feature film. Elemental, directed by Peter Sohn, his second outing as director after first leading Pixar's earlier movie, The Good Dinosaur, was for a moment looking like it would be a massive flop for the studio. However, Elemental's success on Disney+ streaming, with over 26 million views, led to many people discovering the beautiful world of the film. They also discovered that the "rom-com with a twist" story it was sold as, hides a much richer text.

Iconic Japanese animator Hayao Miyazaki emerged from his self-announced retirement, which began a few years after he made “The Wind Rises” (2013), to tell the autobiographical story of “The Boy and the Heron.” Studio Ghibli president Toshio Suzuki had to reassemble the staff of the production company to complete the task, and the hard work was recognized with the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature in March 2024.
The 2023 film added another Oscar to the animation director’s accolades after “Spirited Away” won the Best Animated Feature Oscar in 2011. The Academy Award win will send the film back into theaters for a limited time, and fresh off the win at the beginning of March, the film set two different streaming homes depending on where you live.

The planet might be on fire, but at least Emma Stone and Yorgos Lanthimos have found one another. The "La La Land" actor and "The Lobster" filmmaker didn't exactly read as an obvious pairing, yet they're already on their way to joining Hepburn-Cukor, Stewart-Hitchcock, and De Niro-Scorsese in the ranks of all-time great actor-director duos. After a couple of feature films ("The Favourite" and "Poor Things") and a short ("Bleat"), the one thing we can say for certain is that we'll never know precisely what these two are going to get up to next.
Speaking of which, we're only days removed from Stone's surprise Best Actress Oscar win for "Poor Things," yet we've already got a release date for her next collaboration with Lanthimos. The duo will return in just a few months with "Kinds of Kindness," a film that they shot back in late 2022 which was previously going by the (impressively Seo-unfriendly) title "And.

It is no secret that Greek director Yorgos Lanthimos’ career has been evolving quite nicely since his hit film The Lobster. The Greek director has gained numerous major awards and nominations, and with his recent hit film, Poor Things, winning several Academy Awards, we are pleased to confirm that his upcoming movie, Kinds of Kindness, will be released later this year – on June 21, 2024.
Unlike his two previous films, The Favourite and Poor Things, Kinds of Kindness will be based on an original script written by Lanthimos himself and Efthimis Filippou. It is going to be an anthology film, which the director himself described as “a contemporary film, set in the US – three different stories, with four or five actors who play one part in each story”. The actors in question include Lanthimos’ favorite collaborator, Emma Stone, as well as Jesse Plemons, Willem Dafoe, Margaret Qualley, Hong Chau, Joe Alwyn, Mamoudou Athie,...

Talk about a fast turnaround! After winning four golden statues at the 96th Academy Awards ceremony for the twisted Frankenstein-like drama Poor Things, Yorgos Lanthimos and Emma Stone are reteaming for the lauded director’s next feature, Kinds of Kindness. The film opens in theaters this summer on June 21, with several high-profile stars joining Stone in the project that sounds like Lanthimos plays musical chairs with his actors.
Joining Emma Stone for some of the Yorgos Lanthimos goodness are Willem Dafoe (The Lighthouse), Jesse Plemons (Civil War), Hong Chau (The Menu), Margaret Qualley (Drive Away Dolls), Joe Alwyn (The Favourite), Mamoudou Athie (Jurassic World: Dominion), and Hunter Schafer (The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Song Birds & Snakes).

Have you heard about the new Yorgos Lanthimos film? No, not Poor Things – the very-very-recent Yorgos Lanthimos film that, yes, was only weeks ago released in cinemas, and yes, has just hit Disney+, and yes, was just lauded at the Oscars this weekend. That has already become the old Yorgos Lanthimos film – because the acclaimed Greek director already has his star-packed next film in the can, and it’s out in a mere matter of months.
As confirmed by the Disney-owned Searchlight Pictures, Lanthimos’ new film Kinds Of Kindness will be arriving in June. And this isn’t a quickly rushed-out project – it’s another Emma Stone collaboration, also featuring the likes of Jesse Plemons, Willem Dafoe, Margaret Qualley, Hong Chau, Joe Alwyn, Mamoudou Athie, and Hunter Schafer.

The next collaboration between “Poor Things” filmmaker Yorgos Lanthimos and his Oscar-winning star Emma Stone will be here sooner than expected.
On Thursday, Searchlight Films announced that “Kinds of Kindness,” an anthology film directed and co-written by Lanthimos and starring Stone, will debut in limited release on June 21. The surprise date announcement portends to a potential Cannes Film Festival debut, although whether that comes to fruition is unknown.
In addition to Stone, “Kinds of Kindness” – which, at one point, was simply called “And” – also stars Jesse Plemons, Willem Dafoe, Hong Chau, Joe Alywn, Margaret Qualley, Mamoudou Athie, and Hunter Schafer.
Speaking of “Kinds of Kindness” last year, Lanthimos told The Guardian the project was a “contemporary film” set in America that told three distinct stories. The film’s all-star cast will feature across all three sections playing different roles in each part.

The company announced Thursday that sci-fi anthology movie Kinds of Kindness will hit theaters June 21. The film stars Stone, Jesse Plemons, Willem Dafoe, Margaret Qualley, Hong Chau, Joe Alwyn, Mamoudou Athie and Hunter Schafer.

Lanthimos helmed Kinds of Kindness from a script he co-wrote with Efthimis Filippou, who worked with the director on the screenplays for four previous films, including 2015’s The Lobster and 2017’s The Killing of a Sacred Deer. Lanthimos, Ed Guiney, Andrew Lowe and Kasia Malipan...

Kinds of Kindness will serve as the next collaboration between Emma Stone and director Yorgos Lanthimos after Poor Things. Kinds of Kindness will release in theaters on June 21. The film features a star-studded cast including Jesse Plemons, Willem Dafoe, and more.
Kinds of Kindness, the upcoming film from Emma Stone and Poor Things director Yorgos Lanthimos, now has a release date. After 2018's Oscar-winning The Favourite, Stone and Lanthimos collaborated for the second time last year on the critically-acclaimed Poor Things, a fantastical comedy-drama about a woman who is brought back from the dead and embarks on a journey of self-discovery. The film was a major awards and box office success, and Stone and Lanthimos' working relationship is set to continue with a new film.
Searchlight Pictures now officially announces that Kinds of Kindness, Stone and Lanthimos' next movie, will release in theaters on June 21.

Searchlight is wasting no time getting the next Yorgos Lanthimos film out there.
Less than a week after “Poor Things” won four Academy Awards include Best Actress for Emma Stone, distributor Searchlight Pictures has announced the release date for his next film, “Kinds of Kindness“: It will open in theaters June 21, 2024. A limited release will kick off the launch for Lanthimos’ eighth feature film, with a wider nationwide opening to follow.
The June 21 release almost certainly means that “Kinds of Kindness” will be ready for Cannes 2024 — and will potentially be his first feature to premiere on the Croisette since 2017’s “The Killing of a Sacred Deer.” His past Oscar winners “The Favourite” and “Poor Things” both went the way of Venice. The 2024 Cannes Film Festival runs May 14 through May 25.
“Kinds of Kindness” is an anthology film with three separate storylines that collide, though plot details remain scarce so far.

Days after taking her second Best Actress Oscar for Poor Things, Emma Stone’s next movie with Yorgos Lanthimos, Kinds of Kindness, has set a theatrical release date of June 21 this summer. Searchlight just made the news official about their third feature project with Lanthimos after the Oscar winning The Favourite and Poor Things.
The Favourite and Poor Things launched in Q4 parts of the calendar; this is the first Searchlight Lanthimos release to go in summer, which raises speculation that this movie could go to Cannes. The last Lanthimos movie to go to Cannes was 2017’s The Killing of a Sacred Dear.
Kinds of Kindness also stars Poor Things‘ co-star Willem Dafoe. The movie also stars Jesse Plemons, Hong Chau, Margaret Qualley, Joe Alwyn, Mamoudou Athie, and Hunter Schafer.

“Kinds of Kindness,” the next collaboration between director Yorgos Lanthimos and star Emma Stone, will debut in theaters this summer.
Searchlight, the indie studio that’s distributing the film, added it to the release calendar on June 21.

Lanthimos penned the screenplay with Efthimis Filippou, with whom he co-wrote the dark thrillers and absurdist comedies, “The Lobster,” “Killing of a Sacred Deer” and “Dogtooth.” The movie, originally titled “And,” was shot in New Orleans in late 2022.

Backstage, she affirmed this belief was genuine, adding, “I was so amazed by Ryan and what he was doing, and that number just blew my mind.

Jurassic World 4 must break the trend of killing off main dinosaurs in the franchise to create new threats for each film. Returning faces like Sam Neill and new characters may appear in the film set to release in 2025, with potential for an interesting plot. The series should stop moralizing mutated dinosaurs as villains and focus on humanity learning to coexist with dinosaurs.
Jurassic World 4 has officially been announced, but as the franchise starts a new chapter of humans and dinosaurs, the movie must end the dinosaur-killing streak that was a part of the most recent trilogy. There are plenty of interesting stories the new Jurassic World 4 film can tell, and the plot will surely have to grapple with the fact that humanity and dinosaurs must learn to co-exist after the events of the previous films. However, there is no reason why the franchise has to keep killing its dinosaurs,...

Elemental channels classic Pixar adventure with Ember and Wade, but falters in LGBTQ+ representation with minor characters. While Ember and Wade journey through Element City, LGBTQ+ characters Lake and Ghibli are unfortunately sidelined. Pixar's Elemental, released during Pride Month, misses the mark on LGBTQ+ representation, highlighting an ongoing issue.
Warning: minor spoilers for Elemental.2023's Elemental follows some of Pixar’s best traditions but, unfortunately, also continues the studio’s poor LGBTQ+ track record. After going back to the Toy Story saga with the spinoff Lightyear, Pixar returned to original stories with Elemental, directed by Peter Sohn. Set in a world where all four elements coexist, named Element City, Elemental introduces fierce young fire elemental Ember Lumen (voiced by Leah Lewis) and go-with-the-flow water elemental Wade Ripple (Mamoudou Athie) — and their romance teaches that differences mean nothing when it comes to love.

Despite a weak $29.6 million opening, Elemental eventually earned $496.4 million, proving that is wasn't a flop. McLendon-Covey emphasized the importance of giving movies time to succeed and avoiding sensational reactions to their debuts.
Wendi McLendon-Covey has shared her response to reports of the box office results of Elemental. The actor played Gale Cumulus in the Pixar movie, an air element for whom the water element Wade Ripple (Mamoudou Athie) works in Element City, a place where the elements air, earth, fire, and water are anthropomorphic beings. Although the $200 million movie had a weak opening weekend gross of $29.6 million that led some headlines to declare it a flop, it eventually earned $496.4 million worldwide, becoming the tenth highest-grossing movie of 2023.

Roll up, roll up: It’s Cannes prognostication time.
With the 77th edition of the great cinema showcase less than three months away, the blurred outline of a lineup is beginning to emerge. At this stage, the process of elimination is as telling as the process of inclusion: hardly any films have been guaranteed a slot by the festival, but we’re starting to get some clarity on which projects are likely to be ready and which are leaning towards a different launch strategy.
There has been a longstanding expectation that George Miller will be back at the festival with Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga. Cannes chief Thierry Frémaux himself has said he “hopes” it’ll be there and while it isn’t locked yet, nothing we’re hearing so far indicates it won’t be at the festival. The film’s May 22 France release date and Miller’s long...

“It’s been really interesting to talk about the film in this personal way, because it really was never meant to be so personal,” Elemental director Peter Sohn said at Deadline’s Contenders Film: The Nominees panel Saturday.
“The seeds sort of started,” the Disney/Pixar vet added of his own Korean family story that birthed the Oscar-nominated toon. “And it rippled through the crew, and a lot of our crew members started bringing their own personal lives to it as well.”
With a love story of sorts between fire element Amber and water element Wade, “empathy among cultures” and a dollop or two of the immigrant experience and interracial relationships, the seven-year effort to bring Elemental to the big screen now sees the half-billion-grossing pic up for Best Animated Feature. It will face off for the Oscar against Hayao Miyazaki’s The Boy and the Heron. Netflix’s Nimona,...

Underwater is a movie that has been rising in popularity in the years since its initial release in 2020, and that may open the door for a potential sequel to happen.
When Underwater was released, the Kristen Stewart-led failed to light the box office on fire. It bombed with less than $41 million earned worldwide, and it was also met with mixed reviews from critics. Over the past four years, it has grown to be better appreciated, and it recently made a splash on Netflix with high viewership on streaming. If the film is becoming a cult classic, then there may be a growing interest in fans for a sequel. In a new interview with ComicBook.com, Underwater director William Eubank teased his desire to continue the story in another film, admitting his hopes that it will happen one of these days.
