Francis Ford Coppola's "Megalopolis"

[lorddemaxus]

Has he ever been "hot" in the industry? He's literally never helmed a major pop-cultural hit, and yes his whiny Emo supporting character in the terrible SW sequels doesn't count. Even indie Gosling has stuff like La La Land. Driver is completely virtual as a star. Driver is basically no different than Sam Worthington. He's proven nothing.

Says he's never helmed a major pop-cultural hit but excludes the big pop-cultural hit he's consistently been praised in. OK, sounds logical.

IMDB plot synopsis for this is now up, not sure of its accuracy.

An architect wants to rebuild New York City as a utopia following a devastating disaster.

Besides the last 4 words, that has been the synopsis for more than a decade, so I guess it's accurate (or it was before some rewritings).

It’s interesting as it really doesn’t match with the supposed leaked script.

I think the script review was posted in 2011, so there's plenty of room for the script to have been revised several times since then. That's not to say all the problematic stuff will be removed - Driver's filmography amply demonstrates that he has no qualms about playing morally reprehensible men.

I hope they lean into the Metropolis vibes - I love that film.

I don't know, but that synopsis about an architect reshaping the city was the only info I have read for years about this project. I don't know if it was accurate, though.

Given that IMDB still has the Amy Schumer Barbie synopsis for Greta Gerwig's Barbie movie I'd say they aren't the most reliable for that info.

August start! I wonder if Ferrari is filming earlier than thought? Seems way too close together for Driver to do both.
