California Senate Approves Film & TV Tax Credits Bill
In a near-unanimous vote, the California Senate today passed its version of legislation aimed at expanding and retooling the state's Film and Television Tax Credit Program. The vote on Senate Bill 630 was 34-1, with the only nay coming from Sen. Roger Niello, who represents the city of Sacramento and surrounding areas. The bill (read it here) now moves on to the state Assembly.

SAG-AFTRA's 'Here's Looking At You L.A.' & Mayor Karen Bass Push For State & Federal Tax Incentives To Get Hollywood Working Again Sweetened New York Production Incentives A Go As State Budget Passes Along with Assembly Bill 1138 — which passed the Appropriations Committee last month — the legislation would expand the definition of a qualified motion picture, allowing additional projects to apply for the program, including series with episodes averaging 20 minutes or more, animation films, series, and shorts, and large-scale competition shows. After years of strife for the California film and television industry, Gov. Gavin Newsom in October proposed a significant increase to the overall cap on incentives, more than doubling it from $330 million to $750M annually. SB630 and AB1138 seek to do more than just provide additional finance incentives to studios who bring physical production back to California. The sister bills also are meant to 'amend, update, and modernize' the program. The legislation comes amid the latest spurt of runaway production as other states ramp up their film and TV tax incentives programs in an effort to lure production away from California. New York last month passed a state budget that includes expanded incentives.

Michael J. Fox's ‘Back to the Future' guitar has been missing for decades — and a new doc is hunting it down
The power of — a doc. Michael J. Fox famously rocked out on guitar to Chuck Berry's 'Johnny B. Goode' in an iconic scene from 'Back to the Future.' But now it's more like 'Johnny B. Gone': The instrument Fox's Marty McFly played at the Enchantment Under the Sea high school dance has been missing for nearly 40 years. Advertisement Now, as the 1985 blockbuster turns 40 on July 3, the search for the cherry red Gibson ES-345 guitar is being tracked in an upcoming documentary, 'Lost to the Future.' 4 A video featuring Michael J. Fox and his 'Back to the Future' castmates launched the hunt for the guitar on Tuesday. ©Universal/Courtesy Everett Collection Gibson Guitars, Universal Home Entertainment and filmmaker Doc Crotzer have teamed up for the search for the long-lost axe. Advertisement The hunt was launched on Tuesday with a video featuring Fox and his 'fellow 'Back to the Future' cast members including Lea Thompson, Christopher Lloyd, Harry Waters Jr. and Huey Lewis. 'I always wanted to be a rock 'n' roll guitarist, that's all I wanted to do,' Fox, 63, told People about the scene in which he performs the Penguins' 1954 hit 'Earth Angel' in addition to Berry's 1958 classic. 'It's always been a passion of mine, rock 'n' roll, and particularly the guitar. There's just something about it, like you are wringing the magic and the music out of it.' In turn, Fox's big guitar moment inspired Crotzer. ''Back to the Future' made me want to make movies as a kid, and made me want to pick up a guitar,' he told Billboard. 'I went on with my [filmmaking] career, but I had always wondered what happened to that guitar. Over the last however many years so many props from the movie have surfaced … but [the guitar] had never surfaced.' Advertisement 4 'I always wanted to be a rock 'n' roll guitarist,' Michael J. Fox said of playing the instrument in 'Back to Future.' ©Universal/Courtesy Everett Collection Gibson's director of brand experience Mark Agnesi — who previously worked at Norm's Rare Guitars, the Tarzana, California shop from where the instrument was rented — was also inspired to play from the 'Back to the Future' scene. 'I've been searching for this thing for 16 years now,' he told Billboard. 'I started searching everywhere. Norm's has this big warehouse of guitars and occasionally I'd go in and look for certain things, and every time I'm in there I was always looking around for [the 'Back to the Future' guitar], but to no avail.' The guitar was apparently sold, then sold back to Norm's and then resold again. Advertisement 4 Michael J. Fox rocked out out on guitar to the Chuck Berry classic 'Johnny B. Goode' in 'Back to Future. ©Universal/Courtesy Everett Collection 4 Michael J. Fox's 'Back to the Future' axe was rented from Norm's Rare Guitars in Tarzana, California. ©Universal/Courtesy Everett Collection 'Back then there was no digital record of that stuff; it was all hand-written receipts and stuff,' said Agnesi. 'We know it was returned to Norm's. At that time in the mid '80s there was a Japanese vintage guitar boom; charter buses of Japanese tourists were pulling up and buying everything in sight. So it could be someone has it in Japan. We don't know. The possibilities of where it could be are endless.' While the guitar's serial number is unknown, it has a unique feature, according to Agnesi: the solid inlay on the 12th fret, unlike the split ones that were standard on the ES-345 at the time. 'That anomaly is the smoking gun we're looking for, thank God,' he said. 'That will not be on any other guitar … That's how we'll know we've found the guitar we're looking for.' Anyone with leads on the guitar's whereabouts can call 1-888-345-1955 or send a message via

Clint Eastwood Says Hollywood Has Too Many Sequels: Where Is the Next ‘Casablanca'?
UPDATE: In a statement to Deadline on Monday, June 2, Clint Eastwood disputed ever giving the interview with the Austrian newspaper Kurier and called the comments in it 'entirely phony.' 'A couple of items about me have recently shown up in the news,' Eastwood told Deadline. 'I thought I would set the record straight. I can confirm I've turned 95. I can also confirm that I never gave an interview to an Austrian publication called Kurier, or any other writer in recent weeks, and that the interview is entirely phony.' More from IndieWire Luca Guadagnino Attached to Direct AI Business Comedy 'Artificial' for Amazon MGM Austrian Publication That Ran 'Phony' Clint Eastwood Interview Cuts Ties with HFPA Member Author ORIGINAL STORY: Clint Eastwood wants Hollywood to only greenlight original films instead of relying on sequels and franchise installments. The auteur, who yes, did have his own franchise with five 'Dirty Harry' films, clarified that after directing features for decades, he now sees the value in standalone works instead. The 'Juror #2' director told Austrian newspaper Kurier, as translated by Reuters, that Hollywood has to exit the 'era of remakes and franchises' to usher in new classics. 'I long for the good old days when screenwriters wrote movies like 'Casablanca' in small bungalows on the studio lot, when everyone had a new idea,' Eastwood said. 'We live in an era of remakes and franchises. I've shot sequels three times, but I haven't been interested in that for a long while. My philosophy is: do something new or stay at home.' Eastwood credited the studio system for inspiring his directing career, which began in 1971 with 'Play Misty for Me,' in which he also starred. His enduring legacy will continue so long as he can still make movies, the Oscar winner assured. 'As an actor, I was still under contract with a studio, was in the old system, and thus forced to learn something new every year,' Eastwood said, 'and that's why I'll work as long as I can still learn something, or until I'm truly senile.' He added that he has no plans to retire and will still be working 'for a long time yet,' saying, 'There's no reason why a man can't get better with age. And I have much more experience today. Sure, there are directors who lose their touch at a certain age, but I'm not one of them.' Eastwood previously told The Metrograph that he doesn't reflect on past films too much. 'If I'm happy with it, that's it. As far as if anybody else has a different feeling about it, well that's theirs. I'm sure I've had disappointments. If I did, I wouldn't dwell on them,' he said, adding of his film legacy as a whole, 'That would be up to them, to the audiences, to answer. Up to the people on the outside. I just kind of go along. I consider this, again, emotional. It comes upon you. You have a story, you make a movie of it. You have to just go for it. If you think too much about how it happened you might ruin it. I go back and look at films I've made, and I could easily ask, 'Why the heck did I make this?' I don't remember! It might have been a long time ago…' Best of IndieWire Guillermo del Toro's Favorite Movies: 56 Films the Director Wants You to See 'Song of the South': 14 Things to Know About Disney's Most Controversial Movie Nicolas Winding Refn's Favorite Films: 37 Movies the Director Wants You to See
