Emma Stone Reunites with Director Yorgos Lanthimos for Composer Jerskin Fendrix's Quirky New Music Video
The trio have previously collaborated on 'Kinds of Kindness' and 'Poor Things,' which earned all three Oscar noms (and Stone a win for Best Actress)NEED TO KNOW Emma Stone has reunited with director Yorgos Lanthimos and composer Jerskin Fendrix The actress stars alongside the musician in his new music video for "Beth's Farm" The three previously collaborated on Kinds of Kindness and Poor ThingsEmma Stone's whimsical pixie cut fits in perfectly with composer Jerskin Fendrix's quirky new music video for the song "Beth's Farm." The two-time Oscar-winning actress, 36, stars alongside the musician, 30, in what's being dubbed as a six-minute "breathtaking" short film directed by frequent collaborator Yorgos Lanthimos. According to a press release, "Beth's Farm" captures "the song's themes of loss, sentimentality and bittersweet childhood nostalgia through the trademark surrealist lens of the lauded filmmaker" while also showcasing "the trio's wildly successful creative partnership." "It was lovely to team up again with Emma and a number of people that we have been working with for quite a while to contribute a bit of film narrative to what I think is a remarkable second personal album by our very important artistic collaborator and friend, Jerskin Fendrix," Lanthimos, 51, said in a statement about teaming up "Beth's Farm," the first single from Frendrix's newest album. In fact, project marks their latest collaboration, following previous work on the films Kinds of Kindness and Poor Things, the latter of which earned Lanthimos an Oscar nomination for Best Director, Fendrix a nod for Best Music (Original Score) and Stone a second win in the Best Actress category. Not only that, but all three have been working on the upcoming movie Bugonia, which is rumored to be the inspiration behind Stone's chic haircut — a style she first debuted at the 2025 Golden Globes in January amid production on sci-fi black comedy. According to Focus Features, Bugonia tells the story about "two conspiracy obsessed young men [who] kidnap the high-powered CEO of a major company, convinced that she is an alien intent on destroying planet Earth." In addition to Stone, who also serves as a producer, the movie stars Aidan Delbis, Stavros Halkias as well as two other Lanthimos collaborators Alicia Silverstone and Jesse Plemons. Silverstone, 48, previously appeared in The Killing of a Sacred Deer while Plemons, 37, shared the screen with Stone in Kinds of Kindness. Bugonia is currently set to be released in theaters on Oct. 24 — shortly after the release of Fendrix's album, Once Upon a Time. . . in Shropshire, available on Oct. 10.

The 11 Splashiest Releases Coming to the 2025 Venice Film Festival
The 2003 South Korean sci-fi comedy Save the Green Planet! is reimagined in characteristically batshit fashion by the idiosyncratic Yorgos Lanthimos in this chilling and absurdist farce. It marks the director's fifth collaboration with double Oscar winner Emma Stone, after The Favourite, Bleat, Poor Things, and Kinds of Kindness, and reunites him with the latter's lead, Jesse Plemons, too, in a story about two conspiracy theorists who kidnap a high-powered CEO, convinced that she's an alien hellbent on destroying the earth. The Smashing Machine The Safdie brothers are, for the moment, going their own way: After making Good Time and Uncut Gems as a duo, Josh Safdie is now focused on the Timothée Chalamet and Gwyneth Paltrow ping pong movie Marty Supreme, while Benny Safdie is turning his attention to this rip-roaring portrait of MMA fighter Mark Kerr (a prosthetics-swathed Dwayne Johnson). Beside him, through the triumphant victories, crushing losses, and struggles with substance abuse, is his devoted wife, played by Emily Blunt—a Jungle Cruise reunion I never saw coming. A House of Dynamite Kathryn Bigelow, the Oscar-winning auteur behind The Hurt Locker, Zero Dark Thirty, and Detroit, returns with a prescient examination of our contemporary geopolitical hellscape: When a missile is launched at the US, the race is on to determine who is responsible and how the White House should respond. In charge? The likes of Idris Elba, Rebecca Ferguson, Greta Lee, Jared Harris, Tracy Letts, Anthony Ramos, Jonah Hauer-King, Renée Elise Goldsberry, and Kaitlyn Dever, as they confront a potential nuclear catastrophe and the precarious world we've created with our dependence on atomic weapons. The Wizard of the Kremlin Another politically charged polemic, Olivier Assayas's account of Putin's rise to power, adapted from Giuliano da Empoli's recent novel of the same name, sees none other than Jude Law transform into the deathly pale, dark-suited KGB officer-turned-president. Paul Dano is his (partly fictional) spin doctor, pulling the strings at the heart of the Russian government, while Alicia Vikander, Zach Galifianakis, Tom Sturridge, and Jeffrey Wright complete the impressive ensemble. As the boundaries blur between truth and lies, news and propaganda, nationalism and imperialism, we're given an unnerving insight into Russia's turbulent recent past, as well as its incredibly troubled present.

Top stars and directors head to Venice for high-powered 2025 festival
Hollywood stars, Oscar-winning directors, Asian heavyweights, and European auteurs will vie for top honours at this year's stellar Venice Film Festival, all looking to make a splash at the start of the awards season. Running from 27 August to 6 September, the 82nd edition of the world's oldest film festival will showcase a rich array of movies that spans psychological thrillers, art-house dramas, genre-bending experiments, documentaries, and buzzy studio-backed productions. Among the leading A-listers expected to walk the Venice Lido's red carpet are Julia Roberts, Emma Stone, George Clooney, Dwayne Johnson, Emily Blunt, Andrew Garfield, Oscar Isaac, Cate Blanchett, and Amanda Seyfried. Netflix A who's-who of global directors will also be premiering their latest pictures at the 11-day event, including the US filmmakers Kathryn Bigelow, Jim Jarmusch, Noah Baumbach, and Benny Safdie, alongside top Europeans Yorgos Lanthimos, Paolo Sorrentino, and László Nemes, and Asia's Park Chan-wook and Shu Qi. Netflix, which skipped Venice last year, returns in full force in 2025 with a trio of headline-grabbing titles, including Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein, a new take on the classic horror tale starring Oscar Isaac, Jacob Elordi, and Mia Goth. Noah Baumbach's comedy-drama Jay Kelly, starring George Clooney, Adam Sandler, and Laura Dern, is also in the main competition and on the Netflix slate. It is alongside Netflix's geopolitical thriller A House of Dynamite, starring Idris Elba and Rebecca Ferguson, and directed by Kathryn Bigelow, who won an Oscar in 2010 for The Hurt Locker. Venice fires the starting gun for the awards season, with films premiering on the Lido in the last four years collecting more than 90 Oscar nominations and winning almost 20, making it the place to be seen for actors, producers, and directors. In the past nine editions of the Oscars, the award for Best Actress or Best Actor has gone eight times to the protagonists of films first seen in Venice, including Emma Stone for her role in Poor Things in 2024. Fighters and families Emma Stone returns to Venice this year, teaming up again with Poor Things director Yorgos Lanthimos in an offbeat satire, Bugonia, produced by the Dublin-based Element Pictures. The indie icon of US cinema, Jim Jarmusch, will be showing his Father Mother Sister Brother, a three-part tale exploring fractured families with a cast that includes Cate Blanchett, Vicky Krieps, Adam Driver, and Tom Waits. Another US film receiving its first outing at Venice is the MMA fighter biopic The Smashing Machine, starring Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt, and directed by Benny Safdie. A very different biopic is The Testament of Ann Lee - a musical take on the life of the radical 18th-century Shaker leader, which stars Amanda Seyfried and is directed by Norway's Mona Fastvold. European auteurs are well-represented, with Paolo Sorrentino's La Grazia, starring Toni Servillo, selected as the festival's opening film, while Hungary's László Nemes presents the family drama Orphan, and France's François Ozon showcases his retelling of Albert Camus's celebrated novel The Stranger. Another French director, Olivier Assayas, will premiere The Wizard of the Kremlin - a political thriller about the rise of Vladimir Putin, starring Paul Dano and Alicia Vikander, with Jude Law playing the Russian leader. Tragic story of a Palestinian girl One film that looks certain to raise emotions is Kaouther Ben Hania's The Voice of Hind Rajab, which uses original emergency service recordings to tell the story of a five-year-old Palestinian girl who was killed in Gaza in 2024 after being trapped for hours in a vehicle targeted by Israeli forces. "I think it is one of the films that will make the greatest impression, and hopefully [won't be] controversial," said the festival's artistic director, Alberto Barbera, his voice trembling as he recalled the movie. Among the battery of films being shown out of competition is Luca Guadagnino's MeToo-themed psychological drama After the Hunt, starring Ayo Edebiri, Andrew Garfield, and Julia Roberts, who will be making her red-carpet debut at Venice, Barbera said. The jury for the main competition will be chaired by the American director Alexander Payne. He will be joined by fellow directors Stéphane Brizé, Maura Delpero, Cristian Mungiu, and Mohammad Rasoulof, and the actresses Fernanda Torres and Zhao Tao.
