Omniscient Reader: The Prophet spoiler stills
Based on the bestselling web novel Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint by Sing Shong, the film promises to deliver stunning action sequences and epic fantasy elements. The newly released spoiler stills of Omniscient Reader: The Prophet feature Lee Min Ho, Ahn Hyo Seop, BLACKPINK's Jisoo, Chae Soo Bin, Nana, Shin Seung Ho and child actor Kwon Eun Seong.
As a web novel's apocalyptic world comes to life, its main character, Yoo Jung Hyuk (Lee Min Ho) picks up his sword to slash the enemies of mankind. Kim Dok Ja (Ahn Hyo Seop), the only one aware of how the novel's story unfolds, looks determined to go to any lengths to use his knowledge and expertise to kill the evil creatures. Scratch marks on his and Lee Hyeon Seong's (Shin Seung Ho) faces indicate an intense fight for survival.
The latter looks traumatized due to some unwanted happenings as little Lee Gil Yeong (Kwon Eun Seong) tries to comfort him. Jung Hui Won (Nana) looks exhausted from thrilling bouts, but still stands strong, shielding herself with knives. Yoo Sang A (Chae Soo Bin) stares at something intently, probably in shock or disbelief. Lee Ji Hye (BLACKPINK's Jisoo) appears lost in thought, standing in a school uniform with her survival weapon gripped firmly in her hand.
The 1-hour 56-minute movie will hit theaters on July 23, 2025. Its posters and trailer launch heightened the buzz surrounding the upcoming big-budget project. With a reported budget of 21 million USD and a runtime of 117 minutes, the fantasy thriller is expected to be a blockbuster hit this summer.

F1 India Box Office: Brad Pitt starrer amazes with a 40 percent growth on Saturday; Nets Rs 12.50 crore in 2 days and set to emerge a HIT
Joseph Krasinski's F1 starring Brad Pitt, Kerry Condon and others, showed a stiff 40 percent growth on its second day at the box office after a superb first day of Rs 5.25 crore. With Rs 7.25 crore net on day 2, the total of F1 stands at Rs 12.50 crore and by the end of the weekend, it should be Rs 20 crore net. The Day Wise Net India Collections Of F1 Are As Under F1 Stands At Rs 12.50 Crore Net After 2 Days In India F1 got a start and the strong word around the film should help it trend well in India, despite competition. The fact that it retains IMAX screens in week 2 as well shall ensure remarkable numbers even when Jurassic World Rebirth hits theatres next week. Final collections in the range of the superhit Final Destination: Bloodlines can't be ruled out strictly by the kind of acceptance that it enjoys. That would also make F1 among the highest grossing original (not part of any IP) movies in the country. F1 Crushes Pre-Release Predictions Rather Comfortably The global numbers of F1 through Friday have come and they are around USD 64.50 million. A global weekend pushing to USD 150 million is what is expected now. The opening weekend projections prior to the release were around USD 100 million and they shall be crushed rather comfortably, now. The movie's high budget won't be easy to recover theatrically. But if F1 manages to cross USD 500 million globally by the end of its run, it will be seen as a good result if not great; especially given the pessimism in the trade because its release is right before giants like Jurassic World Rebirth and Superman. F1's Numbers Show That Brad Pitt Still Has The Ability To Pull Audiences To Theatres With F1, Brad Pitt has shown that he still has it in him as far as getting people to theatres is considered. The next movie the actor works on is a Netflix original. His next theatrical venture is waited for with bated breath. F1 plays in theatres now. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates on F1 and Brad Pitt.

David Fincher set to direct 'Squid Game' spin-off for Netflix, with filming slated for December: Reports
Acclaimed director David Fincher is reportedly attached to direct 'Squid Game' spin-off series based on the wildly successful South Korean survival drama, 'Squid Game'. According to industry sources, the project is being developed at Netflix with production eyeing a December 2025 start date. Unlike a direct remake, 'Squid Game' spin-off will not retell the events of the original but will instead expand the established universe, delving deeper into the mythology surrounding the deadly contest that captivated global audiences. The spin-off is described as a narrative continuation, building on themes of desperation, systemic cruelty, and voyeuristic spectacle that made the original series a cultural phenomenon. Dennis Kelly, best known for creating the British cult thriller 'Utopia', is said to be handling the writing duties. His background in twisted conspiracies and bleakly comic social commentary makes him a fitting choice for the dark world of 'Squid Game'. While it remains unconfirmed whether Fincher will direct the entire series or select episodes, his involvement alone has sent expectations soaring. Hints about the series' existence have surfaced before, with speculation gaining ground after Cate Blanchett made a cryptic cameo that many now view as a narrative handoff. Blanchett previously worked with Fincher on 'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button', and her potential return has fuelled fan theories about a deeper intertextual thread. Fincher, known for his chilling psychological narratives such as 'Fight Club', 'Se7en', 'Gone Girl', and 'Mindhunter', appears to be a natural fit for the dystopian franchise. His potential to bring a sharp, morally unflinching lens to the spin-off has only intensified interest. Netflix has yet to make an official announcement, but with production timelines taking shape and industry insiders confirming the creative team, 'Squid Game' looks poised to be one of the most anticipated releases on the streaming platform.
