Studios Skip Cannes, Betting on Safer, Controlled Premieres

Major Hollywood studios are largely absent from Cannes 2026 premieres for the first time since 2017, deterred by seven-figure travel and security costs and the risk of early, potentially negative reviews in the social-media age; with few tentpole titles scheduled for a Cannes launch, studios are opting for later, controlled releases or indie debuts, shifting Cannes’s role toward world cinema and prestige projects rather than blockbuster premieres.

'Venom 3' Dominates Box Office as 'Heretic' Surprises with Strong Debut

"Venom 3" topped the domestic box office during a quiet post-election weekend, earning $16.2 million, while also leading overseas with a global total of $394.2 million. The lack of major releases allowed it to maintain its position, as studios avoided the weekend due to high ad rates and potential unrest. "Red One" launched internationally, earning $26.6 million, while "Best Christmas Pageant Ever" and "Heretic" competed closely for second place domestically. Other notable films included "The Wild Robot" and "Smile 2."

"Box Office: 'Argylle' Leads Slowest Super Bowl Weekend in Decades"

The domestic box office saw historic lows during Super Bowl weekend, with combined ticket sales at an estimated $40 million, the worst showing in over three decades outside of 2021. Matthew Vaughn’s film "Argylle" led with a meek $6.5 million, while Focus Features’ horror-comedy "Lisa Frankenstein" opened in second place with $3.8 million. Hollywood studios are gearing up for new movie releases, and despite the Super Bowl, there is still potential for box office success.

Paramount's Potential Sale Sparks Wall Street Interest

Speculation is growing that David Ellison's Skydance Media and RedBird Capital are considering a bid for National Amusements (NAI), the parent company of Paramount Global. A potential sale of Paramount could reshape the Hollywood landscape and lead to further deals, as assets are reevaluated. Analysts predict that a deal could result in the combination of Skydance, Paramount, and CBS Studios to create a content producer with more scale. They also anticipate the divestiture of assets such as Paramount+ and PlutoTV, as well as most of Paramount's linear TV channels. The estimated enterprise value of these divestitures is around $13.5 billion.

Black Actors Applaud SAG's Hair and Makeup Changes for Amplifying Their Voices

The Screen Actors Guild (SAG) has approved a new contract with Hollywood studios and streamers that includes provisions for improved hair and makeup services, addressing the discrimination faced by performers with textured hairstyles or darker complexions. The agreement allows actors to consult with production about their hair and makeup needs, and if the requirements cannot be met, they will receive compensation for seeking help elsewhere. The deal aims to ensure that all actors feel comfortable on set by 2025. However, some hairstylists and actors argue that the provision should also cover background actors and address the lack of stylists familiar with diverse hair textures. SAG-AFTRA and Hollywood studios plan to work with the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) to increase the number of qualified stylists and allocate funds for training on all hair textures and skin tones.
