Movie-production news

Some of these sound like they could be terrible or amazing:

Endeavor Content will be talking up Pig, starring Nicolas Cage as a loner who lives with his loyal truffle-hunting pig in the Oregon wilderness and seeks revenge after rival hunters steal the animal. Alex Wolff and Adam Arkin also star with Michael Sarnoski directing the project, currently in post.

Storyboard Media launches international sales on young-adult adaptation Dr. Bird’s Advice For Sad Poets starring Taylor Russell, Lucas Jade Zumann, Jason Isaacs, Tom Wilkinson, Lisa Edelstein and David Arquette. Ketchup Entertainment has set a third quarter US theatrical release on the story of a lovestruck teen who seeks advice from an imaginary pigeon therapist.

Shoreline Entertainment has the completed road movie Braking For Whales starring Tom Felton from the Harry Potter series and Tammin Sursok (Pretty Little Liars) as an estranged brother and sister forced to reconnect while they honour their late mother’s bizarre request to dispose of her ashes in the body of a whale.

I have seen a “Netflix Original Movie” prompt generator on Twitter, but it tends to feature more "[fan-favourite character-actor] is framed for murder" plots.

That's nowhere near as interesting as "imaginary pigeon therapist," a combination of words which really should have come out of a Markov chain.

That one’s apparently based on a novel.

I'm just saying.
