'Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse' release date gets postponed; fans would have to wait for another three weeks

Time of India19-07-2025
'Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse' has been one of the most anticipated threequels, and now, the fans will have to wait a couple more weeks to gear up and watch the film. The release date has been postponed to July 25, 2027, from the previous calendar mark, July 4, 2027.
Why did 'Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse' get postponed?
According to Variety, 'Beyond the Spider-Verse' has been pushed by the creator to gain a better result in the domestic as well as international markets. The studio insiders revealed that a significant move was made to profit of the school-going fans, as only 65% of the students would have their summer vacations during the previous date, while all the schools are guaranteed to have a break on July 25. Additionally, the new date will have a better target audience internationally as well.
The records from the previous two instalments suggest that the studios have worked their fingers to the bone in making as well as the success. The debut animated film 'Into the Spider-Verse' won an Oscar for Best Animated Feature, and the sequel 'Across the Spider-Verse' received a nomination in the category and managed to mint multiple dollars after its release. Together, the films have managed to make USD 1.08 billion through the graphical webs and compelling storyline, according to Deadline.

In fraught times, city dir's ‘Immigrants' gets int'l fim fest Rotterdam grant

1 2 3 Kolkata: In fraught times, Suman Mukhopadhyay 's 'Immigrants' — set against the backdrop of the 1947 Partition of India and topical in the context of today's identity politics — is the only recipient from India of the International Film Festival Rotterdam (IFFR)'s Hubert Bals Fund (HBF). The 15 projects, which will receive a grant of €10,000 to support their development, were selected from more than 900 applications. Author Debesh Roy penned a story named 'Udbastu'. Mukhopadhyay's project is inspired by that work and is about a displaced family from the 1947 Partition of India struggling to rebuild their lives in a fledgling immigrant colony on the outskirts of Kolkata. When a state inquiry questions their identities, conflicting narratives unravel their past, threatening their existence and tearing at the fabric of their family bonds. "This is a historically rooted drama set against the backdrop of the 1947 Partition of India. Its focus is on the fragility of identity in the face of institutional demands for 'proof' and the deep scars that forced migration leaves on personal histories," Mukhopadhyay said. According to the director, 'Immigrants' was born from a profound sense of disquiet about the lives of those whose stories were never officially recorded, whose names were lost due to bureaucratic lapses, and whose lives were rewritten in the margins of history. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Libas Purple Days Sale Libas Undo "The Partition of 1947, despite its monumental impact, often remains a sanitised topic in cinema — reduced to historical spectacle or political drama. 'Immigrants' resists this reduction," he added.

His film 'Putulnacher Itikatha' competed at this year's IFFR. "I have directed nine full-length feature films including 'Putulnacher Itikatha' (2023), 'Nazarband' (2020), 'Asamapta' (2017), and 'Herbert' (2005), which won the National Award for Best Regional Film that year. It is a misconception that cinema is not my forte. Anyone who looks at my body of work will understand that my films have been to many prestigious festivals around the world," he said. The filmmaker has also not ignored some attempts to deliberately downplay his achievements in cinema and pigeonhole him only as a theatre personality. "I hope the IFFR selection will make people notice how consistently I have been working in films as much as devoting time to theatre," Mukhopadhyay said.

Casting director Mukesh Chhabra names the one director who could win India an Oscar: It's not SS Rajamouli, Kiran Rao

Despite India's rich cinematic legacy and global acclaim, an Indian director has yet to bring home a competitive Oscar for Best Director or Best International Feature Film. While Indian films like Lagaan and Mother India have made it to the nominations, and RRR sparked global frenzy, the golden statuette in a major category continues to elude the country's top filmmakers. Mukesh Chhabra feels there is only one director who could bring Oscar to India. Mukesh Chhabra on which Bollywood director can get an Oscar to India But casting director Mukesh Chhabra, known for his work on blockbuster films and his discovery of raw talent, believes that there is one director who could change the status quo. In a recent interview with Faridoon Shahryar, Mukesh named one director he feels has the perfect blend of heart, craft, and universality to break that Oscar drought and finally put Indian cinema in the winner's circle. Mukesh was asked to name a director from Bollywood who he thinks can win an Oscar for India. Without batting an eyelid, Mukesh said, "Raj Kumar Hirani. Agar koi director Hindustan me Oscar leke aaenge to vo Raju Sir hi leke aaenge. (If there's one director who would bring Oscar to India, it would be Raju Sir)" Having collaborated with him on hits like PK, Sanju, and Dunki, Mukesh knows firsthand the precision and heart Rajkumar Hirani brings to the screen. In an earlier interview with Indian Express, 'Raju Hirani is an entire film school, working with him is like a film institute. You learn every aspect of filmmaking when you work with that guy. I have done all his ads, PK and Sanju, so I have spent a lot of time. His casting doesn't get over in a month, it goes on for 2 years because that man eats, breathes, sleeps films." About Rajkumar Hirani Rajkumar Hirani is one of India's most celebrated filmmakers, known for blending heart, humour, and social commentary into mainstream cinema. With a filmography that includes iconic hits like Munna Bhai M.B.B.S., Lage Raho Munna Bhai, 3 Idiots, PK, Sanju, and Dunki, Rajkumar has crafted stories that resonate deeply with Indian audiences while appealing to global sensibilities. His films often tackle complex themes such as education, superstition, and identity with simplicity and emotional depth. A master storyteller, Hirani is praised for making socially relevant cinema that remains commercially successful, making him both a critical and box office favourite.

Ex-Astronomer CEO Andy Byron to sue Coldplay after viral kiss cam controversy? Lawyers reveal

Former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron may sue Coldplay over a viral kiss cam incident involving him and HR chief Kristin Cabot, citing defamation and privacy invasion. Chris Martin's joking "affair" comment sparked backlash. Legal experts doubt the claim's success due to the public concert setting. Both have resigned. Former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron is considering legal action against Chris Martin 's band, Coldplay , for defamation, according to a report by Page Six. This follows a surprise kiss cam moment during a recent Coldplay concert that attracted widespread attention and exposed the personal lives of Byron and the company's HR executive to public scrutiny. Controversial Kiss Cam Moment and Chris Martin's Comment Videos circulating widely on social media show Byron sharing a close moment with Kristin Cabot, the company's HR chief. Following the incident, Byron stepped down from his role amid mounting criticism and a board-initiated internal investigation. Legal Expert's View on Potential Defamation Claim Byron might consider legal action against Coldplay following the widespread backlash he faced after the kiss cam episode with his former colleague. Speaking to Page Six, attorney Camron Dowlatshahi noted, "If we are getting creative, a possible claim would be for defamation, specifically as it relates to Chris Martin characterising the two as having an 'affair.'" During the concert, when the camera caught Byron and Cabot, Martin made a lighthearted comment, saying, "Either they're having an affair or they're just really shy." The attorney added that for Byron to succeed, he must prove that Martin's statement was defamatory and disprove the allegations of an "affair," which Byron contends never happened. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Live Comfortably: 60m2 prefabricated bungalow for the elderly in Cipagalo Pre Fabricated Homes | Search Ads Search Now Undo Byron must demonstrate that Chris Martin was aware of his innocence yet still "made the statement anyway with malice." He added, "None of those elements will be met, so any claim against Coldplay would be frivolous. I also very much doubt that Mr Byron would want further public scrutiny by bringing a borderline frivolous suit against the event organizers and/or Coldplay." Coldplay's Silence and Resignations at Astronomer Coldplay has not yet responded to the situation. Meanwhile, both Andy Byron and Kristin Cabot have stepped down from their positions at Astronomer, according to the New York Post.
