  1. This may have been signed when Netflix was like “actually maybe we will bring movies to theatres” with Knives Out and I remember even mentions of Bardo. Now we see how small that actually meant.

    Kind of hope she gets out of this and does something more original, but still large scale for her next project.

  2. Shes the one that signed with them nobody made her do that. That’s their business, if she wanted to go full theatrical she should’ve worked that out with them on their original contract.

  3. Must be looking for an out. How do you go to Netflix and actually expect a decent theatrical? Is she gonna blame her agent for this one now?

  4. Everybody’s misinterpreting this. She’s worried that her film won’t have a big impact without a theatrical release (true), and wants to get out of her Netflix deal so she can make it a theatrical movie instead.

    She’d been nominated for best picture, best director and best screenplay twice when she signed the contract.

    I’m sure she would have had some of the best business and career advice in hollwood and the idea that she thought there was ever a guarantee of anything other than a week long release in arthouse cinemas is insane to me.

    She is one of maybe ten directors who have had the rapid career ascension that she’s had in the last decade, and I’m really disheartened she hasn’t used her clout to build a career with original movies the same way Jordan Peele or Damien Chazelle have.

  6. The narnia films could be making a LOT of money still. People forget the first was MASSIVE when it came out
