Dwayne Johnson admits he wanted an Oscar nomination for "The Smashing Machine." “It would have been incredible to get nominated for an Oscar. I realized very quickly that it’s a rare thing to reach this pinnacle where you’re even having these conversations. And it’s exciting! It would have been amazing. I wish it happened. But it didn’t.

And it has lit a fire in my spine, which is: Let’s go back to work.” (via Esquire) variety.com/2026/film/news/d…

Bong Joon Ho says "sh*t on me if you didn't like" #Mickey17, not the studio. "Director’s final cut was part of my contract and everyone at the studio and at my agency tried their best to protect me. Of course, during post production, there was lots of discussions and a lot of opinions going back and forth, but it wasn’t ever like someone was forcing something on me or giving me pressure. And so luckily, all my films have been released as my director’s final cut, even a movie as big as 'Mickey 17,' and all the good parts of that film and all the bad parts of that film came from me. I take full responsibility. So shit on me if you didn’t like it!" variety.com/2026/film/global…
