Chuck Makes War Not Love


Even though Charles Melton didn't get his (deserved) Oscar nomination for his performance in Todd Haynes' May December (aka my #8 movie of 2024) it looks like the role put him on the radar of serious filmmakers and he's escaping Riverdale purgatory at last. He's just signed on to star in Alex Garland's next movie, a war film that we have no other info on besides that the Annhilation and Ex-Machina director is co-directing alongside Ray Mendoza -- they worked together on Civil War, which is out April 12th and which I weirdly never shared the trailer for so that is below. With a cast that includes Kirsten Dunst, Wagner Moura, Stephen McKinley Henderson, Cailee Spaeny, Jesse Plemons, and Nick Offerman? Sign me up.
