Did Jordan launched its directors after he lost weapons rights? Here is the truth

Spoilers For “weapons” to follow up.

People were escalating around “weapons”, and the follower of director Zach Craigger to strike the horror of 2022 “Al -Burbri” and If you have seen “weapons”, it is easy to know the reason. Simply, this movie is torn. The central concept was not just part of marketing, but the first thing you see and hear on the big screen: 17 children from the same chapter running to darkness at 2:17 am, and no one knows the reason. The Cregger scenario was playing the horror industry when a bid war erupted in 2023, after “Berber” proved that it was a huge blow – and according to a report in Delivery date Almost at that time, the writer and director Jordan Bell was completely desperate to produce “weapons”. When he lost the war of bidding, all hell collapsed in the Bell camp, if it is supposed to believe the reports.

So what happened? We may never know the full story, and to write these lines, both Pele and Cregger are largely escaping about questions about the bidding war in the interviews. In this report, the initial deadline, though, the story is going this way. New Line Cinema, a subsidiary of Warner Bros. Ultimately by offering “weapons” at $ 38 million, which is more than $ 7 million of Pele presented on behalf of the production company Monkeypaw Productions (part of Universal’s photos). The report reads:

“One of the two versions says that Bell was angry, but we were also told that Bell said that if he had matching the new line, he would win property, but he and Universal were uncomfortable with the budget like the work suggestion, and they moved away.

In the aftermath, Bill launched two main members of his management team: Joel Zazak and Peter Bruidato, who work with artists first and who also Working with Cregger (PrincePato is Cregger). The deadline report shows that Bell is still represented by CAA, but he completely cut ties with artists first. If the loyalties turned behind the scenes when Bell tries to produce “weapons”, we may never get very Unhappy to miss the opportunity.

As I said, as soon as I saw “weapons”, you will understand exactly why Jordan Bell took the loss of severe bidding war. Just as he did in “Al -Barbari”, Zach Cryber was able to mix humor and comedy almost without a defect. It is clear that he is an incredibly smart movie maker, between the amazing film of the film and its sudden control in some aspects.

I will return to this bound in the second, because what I am about to say seems to be brokenly, but it is pregnant with me: “Weapons” have a huge The range compared to “barbarian”. Instead of focusing on renting Airbnb where everything is delightedly mistaken, as he did in “Barbarian”, Cregger expands its range to an entire town, and he does so greatly. Even with a wider range, it wisely restores things like the background of the movie discount, aunt Glades (Amy Madijan, who must get an Oscar nomination for this film). If you are absolutely used to the Peele working group, you can see the similarity here, as his first movie “Get Out” “Us”, which also works on a large scale.

Frankly, it was great to see Bell joined the “Arms” team, because there is a lot of professional overlap between him and Crape. Both started starting at Sketch Comedy-Pele in “MAD TV” and “Key & Pelee” with Kegan-Michael Key, and Cregger in “The Whitest Kids U Leknow”-before converting their focus on making wonderful horror films. Both are known for highly concept actions that are also a deep personality; Cregger spoke widely about how his friend and colleague “Whitest Kids”, the influential, influential, founder of Moore, affected “Weapons”, and Pele admitted that his first horror movie “Get Out” is his way of treating the racism that he treated throughout his life. Billy, who became the first black screenwriter to win the best original scenario at the “Get Out” awards, so that Cregger can run, however once again, These similarities can help explain the reason that Bell wanted to be part of the “weapons” very badly. After the impressive opening weekend at the box office, there is no doubt that Bill is angry again.

I am not here to say that Zak Craigger or Jordan Bell only makes movies to earn a lot of money, but this certainly does not do HurtEspecially when you are able to make a relatively low -budget horror movie that proves the studios that the audience looks forward to their original concepts and new fear. “Weapons”, in other steps The 2025 horror version is widely successfulHe got out of the gate with World Endowment Weekend 71.3 million dollars. This is an incredible distance, especially when you think that the film’s budget was the above mentioned $ 38 presented by the New Line cinema.

To add an insult to Bell’s perceived injury, The box office victory represents this sixth cinematic victory for Warner Bros. In 2025With the movie “Minecraft Movie,” “Singer”, “Bloodlines”, “F1: The Movie” and “Superman” Making All Making a lot Backback on the box throughout the year. Again, this is not likely to be in front of a creative man like Bill. What may Be in front of the mind, which is entirely based on my own guess, is that a successful horror like “weapons” is a great sign of the coming things. We hope that innovative film makers such as Cregger, as well as some horror such as Osgood Perkins and ARI ASter, may be delivered empty checks to create any wild concepts they want in the future. However, I can only hope that both Cregger and Pele will cooperate one day … and if they end up working on a project together, I will sit.

“Weapons” in theaters are now.
