Globe says Scorsese drains Apple TV+ budget for Killers

2023-09-01 08:12 ET - In the News

The Globe and Mail reports in its Friday edition that after a Barbenheimer-fuelled July, and a distressingly quiet August, the movies are back -- sort of. The Globe's Barry Hertz writes that much depends on the fallout of the SAG-AFTRA strike, which depending on where things are by Labour Day weekend could send many titles scurrying to presumably brighter days in 2024. Still, there are signs of promise everywhere you look, no Barbie or atomic blast required. One of the best fall movie bets from now through U.S. Thanksgiving is Killers of the Flower Moon. Director Martin Scorsese drained the bank account of the Apple TV+ film division to make this epic adaptation of David Grann's excellent 2017 non-fiction book. Starring frequent Scorsese collaborators Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro, the film examines the murders of Oklahoma's Osage people circa 1920, and how the FBI was formed shortly thereafter to tackle the crimes. Having enjoyed a warm reception during its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival this past spring, expect Killers to dominate come awards time. It will be in theatres Oct. 6, and streaming on Apple TV+ at a date to be determined.
