Anand's knack for strategic release planning has been a key element in his string of blockbuster hits. "Pathan," with its star-studded cast and gripping narrative, showcased Anand's ability to tap into audience expectations. The teaser for "Fighter" has only fueled the excitement, hinting at a promising box office performance. This has led many to speculate about Anand's unique approach to scheduling releases.

As the release of "Fighter" draws near, the spotlight shifts to the enigmatic date of 25.1.25. The conjecture surrounding potential releases on this date includes three highly anticipated projects such as "Rambo," "Tiger vs Pathan," and "Krrish 4."

"Rambo," a collaboration with the iconic franchise, could bring the legendary character to Indian screens, marking a historic moment in cinematic history. The prospect of "Tiger vs Pathan" suggests a clash of titans, promising a cinematic spectacle of epic proportions. Meanwhile, the superhero genre may take center stage with the release of "Krrish 4," continuing the beloved series that has captured the imaginations of audiences.

In conclusion, Siddharth Anand's "date funda" has added an intriguing layer to the excitement surrounding his films. As fans eagerly await the release of "Fighter" on 25.1.2024, the mystery of what will unfold on 25.1.25 intensifies. Whether it's the arrival of "Rambo," the clash of titans in "Tiger vs Pathan," or the return of the superhero in "Krrish 4," one thing is certain, Siddharth Anand continues to be a masterful architect of cinematic anticipation.

The script for McFly is written by Olivier Award-winning writer Jessica Swale ("Nell Gwynn," "Blue Stockings"), while Tom Fletcher, the character of McFly, is writing the music and lyrics. The director of the film will be Luke Sheppard ("& Juliet," "The Little Big Things"). The show is scheduled to premiere in the United Kingdom in 2025, and workshops are presently underway.

In a statement, Friedman and Lumley said, "It is a privilege to be creating a new musical about this gorgeous and beloved little bear with such a wonderful team." "The wonder of Paddington lies in his ability to see the best in people via his innocent, wide-eyed eyes, which serves as a constant reminder that kindness and love may win out if we allow them to win over each other's hearts and minds. We are very excited to introduce Michael Bond's other beloved characters, including Paddington and his antics, adventures, and misadventures with the Brown family, to the stage. We want to use fun, beauty, joy, and everything that Paddington stands for to inspire audiences of all ages.

"We could not be more delighted to see our beloved Paddington take to the stage shepherded by a talented and visionary team in Sonia and Eliza," continued Ann Marsh, CEO of Studiocanal. They have given of themselves to demonstrate a profound appreciation and love for Paddington, which will undoubtedly translate onto the stage and guarantee that his adventures—which were conceived more than 60 years ago by Michael Bond—continue to enchant audiences in such a fresh and inventive manner.

15 Documentary Feature Films That Could Make The Oscar Shortlist.

December 11 2023: The official predictions, chosen by Variety senior awards editor Clayton Davis, for the next Tony, Grammy, Oscar, and Emmy ceremonies. The prediction pages do not represent the author's personal choices for any particular competitor; rather, they represent the current race standings. As indicated by previous official and informal surveys, contests are dynamic and can alter in response to events and buzz.

Among the 167 nonfiction films contending for Academy Award consideration are Abramorama's "32 Sounds," Netflix's "American Symphony," and Magnolia's "Little Richard: I Am Everything." Documentary films that have been officially selected in their nation and have either won an award at a qualifying film festival or have been submitted as an international feature. Documentary films are eligible to compete for Academy Awards in other categories, such as best picture. Members of the Documentary Branch choose the nominations and shortlist.

Not all films have received their mandatory qualifying releases, which they need to meet the other qualifying requirements for the category.

Voting on the shortlist will start later this week, and it will take a monumental effort to reduce this list to only 15 items. Expect major flops like the previous year's "Good Night Oppy." Additionally, I'd like to see how the four-hour documentaries compare to the works of the branch members, including Steve McQueen's "Occupied City" and Frederick Wiseman's "Menus-Plaisirs – Les Troisgros."

For general categories, the deadline for submissions is November 15, 2023. The preliminary shortlist for eight categories will be released between December 14 and 18, and the results will be made public on December 21. The official candidates will be announced on January 23, and the Oscar nomination period will take place from January 11–16, 2024.

Thursday, December 21st, will see the announcement of the 15-film shortlist.
