Fugitive Reboot Teaser Trailer: Sutherland and a Domestic Terrorist Battle It Out

Fugitive Reboot Teaser Trailer: Sutherland and a Domestic Terrorist Battle It Out

Quibi, the short-form media platform, has released “The Fugitive,” a reboot of the highly successful ABC TV series which ran from 1963 to 1967. The major hit was later adapted into a movie starring Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones in 1993.

This movie also turned out to be one of the biggest box office hits of 1993, with Harrison Ford as Dr. Richard Kimble and Lee Jones as Deputy U.S. Marshal Samuel Gerard. He was the officer that was tasked with tracking down Dr. Kimble, the man suspected for the murder of his wife.

However, the medical doctor managed to stay one step ahead of Gerard’s dogged pursuit before he succeeded in capturing the real murderer and clearing his name.

The Fugitive” was nominated for seven Academy Awards and was the film that made Tommy Lee Jones to earn his first – and only – Oscar till date.

The Fugitive” reboot to be viewed on mobile phones

Given the popularity of the film, it is somewhat odd that “The Fugitive” has not already been rebooted for the big screen. And although great plans for a new adaptation is underway, movie buffs of the concept will only be able to view it via their smartphones, and not in theaters.

The latest retooling of this classic will arrive much later this year as a series on Quibi, the short-form media platform. And it will star Body Holbrook (“The Predator”) and Kiefer Sutherland.

A little twist in the series

In the reboot of “The Fugitive,” the names of the characters are not only different but also the concept has changed. The story is no longer about a man fighting off the Feds and trying to prove he did not murder his wife. It is about a man trying to prove he is not a terrorist.

The new series will still stick to its original appeal which made both the TV and movie a hit. Sutherland, typically, takes on the role interpreted beautifully by Lee Jones while Holbrook interprets Ford’s character.

But the most impressive aspect of this rebooted version of “The Fugitive” is that it is on the short-form platform.

Quibi’s purpose as a mobile media platform is to provide content with running times not more than ten minutes per episode.

Killing Zac Efron” is another program that is set to launch when the mobile media platform kicks off in April. This is despite the fact that Zac Efron himself was hospitalized while filming the program.

There is no doubt that Quibi’s library of content will thrill audiences far and wide.

No one knows how it will play out

The rebooted “The Fugitive” is a fast-paced action series, but many have started wondering how it will play out in such short installments.

No one has a clear answer to that puzzle, at least not just yet. But if one is to judge by the first teaser trailer, “The Fugitive” series may just be the most suitable program for Quibi.

The new series is geared to have 14 episodes with the entire series having a 140-minute run time if each episode is no longer than 10 minutes.

So, let’s wait and see if this new series will retain or beat the appeal it has had in the past.

When it comes to topic related to the Armed forces, Kent can allow a pile of words flow. Anderson was born in the year, 1945, and spent his childhood in North Carolina. When he got to nineteen years, he became a member of the Merchant navy, for a period of two years, as an Ordinary seaman.

New Adam McKay Movie Gets Star-Studded Cast

New Adam McKay Movie Gets Star-Studded Cast

Adam McKay is a brilliant director with his own sense of humor and intensity. The filmmaker has previously made films like Don’t Look Up, Vice, The Other Guys, and the Anchorman series. Now, the director has come up with a brand new project and a brilliant cast of great actors. The film has been rumored and talked about for months before finally being revealed. It will star the likes of Rober Downey Jr., Danielle Deadwyler, Robert Pattinson, and many other A-listers from Hollywood. What is the film all about? It’s likely going to be another one of McKay’s topical comedies. Here’s more.

Average Height, Average Build

Average Height, Average Build

The film is titled Average Height, Average Build. It is meant to be a total rollercoaster ride that sees the world of a serial killer. It will be a part serial killer thriller as well as a part comedy, as is McKay’s usual style. It will see the killer use the powers of political lobbyists to bring a big change in the way laws to work. Why? All so he can kill people more easily and get about his serial killer ways. 

McKay has recently made films that handle and talk about many sorts of crises. Satirical comedy is his best suit and was best reflected in his last few films, including Don’t Look Up, which talked about the current climate crisis, and The Big Short, which handled the housing crisis in America. Average Height, Average Build, handles the corruption and crime crisis that has become an everyday occurrence in America.

McKay has been working on this script for quite a while. He had previously mentioned how he wanted to write a script that talked about the “big, dirty money” that the world, and especially America, is so obsessed with. He has written the script now, which he then described as a comedy film. 

There are no studios attached to the film as of yet. There will probably be multiple negotiations and offers for the film as the months go on. However, actors such as Pattinson, Amy Adams, Forest Whitaker, Danielle Deadwyler, and Robert Downey Jr. are already attached to the film. 

A dark political thriller is an interesting idea, but studios see it as somewhat of a risky investment with the way politics is affecting the industry right now. While Don’t Look Up was just as star-studded, it was not received very well by critics. McKay has a great sense of humor and directs these satires, but studios are cautiously approaching this topic.

For this reason, reportedly, multiple studios have already passed on the film while some others are working out whether or not they want to be attached. If the film ends up finding no studios, McKay will have no choice but to go to a streamer which means paying his actors up front. 

This has been the reason a lot of previously approached actors refused to be a part of the film right off the bat. However, plenty has stayed on board, exponentially increasing the project’s potential. McKay is planning to start the filming of the movie in Boston in late summer. He has hired cinematographer Todd Banhazl. The two have previously worked together on McKay’s HBO series Winning Time. 

Even though Don’t Look Up was criticized, it still picked up two nominations. One for Best Picture and one for Original Screenplay. It’s interesting to note that an ensemble this powerful and a director this renowned facing trouble to get a project going is new. Hollywood has been in a sensitive place since COVID, and that has clearly changed a lot of things.

Courteney Cox Goes Monica Mode Cleaning Hollywood Stars on Walk of Fame

Courteney Cox Goes Monica Mode Cleaning Hollywood Stars on Walk of Fame

Courteney Cox is very well known by many as the iconic star of the popular 90s sitcom FRIENDS. The actress played Monica Geller, a character who was obsessed with order and cleanliness and was as competitive as it could get. Cox was recently given her own star on the Hollywood walk of fame and was joined by her friends as well as family members. It also included Jennifer Aniston and Lisa Kudrow, two of her castmates from the show. She visited the walk of fame this Wednesday to clean the stars that had her and her friends’ names on them. 

Courteney Was Always Monica

Cox has starred in films and shows after FRIENDS. However, it looks like her character never truly left her. Cox was recently awarded stars on the walk of fame, and now, Cox made a funny video cleaning the stars. 

Someone’s gotta do it,she captioned the video of herself shining up her star as Dolly Parton’s 9 to 5 played in the background. Was this a clever promotional job? The video featured Cox using her line of home cleaning products, Homecourt. She claims that her products are like “beauty products for the home,” well, that sounds like something only Monica could say.

Cox was often found going through people’s drawers and organizing and cleaning them on the set of FRIENDS. Now, she was seen cleaning the stars of her friends too. She would clean one and move on to another. She cleaned Reese Witherspoon’s star, who appeared in the show as Rachel’s sister before making her career in movies to come.

“Literally right on the star. You can go around!” she told pedestrians, trying to relive her time as Monica Geller on the set of FRIENDS, which aired its final and heartbreaking episode in 2004. The show had a brilliant run of ten years and made all the actors and actresses household names for everyone.

Lisa Kudrow

“Thanks for keeping us clean, Court!!,” said Reese Witherspoon, with Kudrow saying: “Only the best thing ever,” it’s interesting to note that Lisa Kudrow is the only leading cast member from FRIENDS not to have a Hollywood star on the walk of fame. She did, however, attend Cox’s ceremony and said kind words about her as her friend received her star. She talked about how Cox, Aniston, and she have been sisters to each other ever since they bumped into one another on the set of FRIENDS. 

The cast of the show has rarely come together all at once. Last, they were seen together on Friends: The Reunion, a documentary that was an hour and a half long, where cast and crew members came together to reminisce their days of working on the show. Since then, there hasn’t been a single time when the whole cast was together.

Interestingly, the male members of the cast were also absent from Cox’s star reception ceremony. David Schwimmer has previously noted how the entire cast of FRIENDS has only been altogether only twice after the show ended back in 2004.

Monica Geller on the set of FRIENDS

Regardless, it seems like Cox has kept the heart and soul of her character alive. She was the first woman to say the word ‘period’ on TV and perhaps one of the first few to normalize things like OCD and being a neat freak. Today, Cox lives on, and the memory of everyone’s favorite, Monica Geller, still keeps going.

FRIENDS, in fact, was and still is so popular that it is still making the stars millions in residuals and also making Warner Bros a lot of money.
