This week gave us a welcome respite from the endless stream of Knives Out casting news, only to hit us with something much wilder right under the wire. It was announced today that Hugh Jackman would be leading a film called Three Bags Full: A Sheep Detective Movie from Minions: The Rise Of Gru director Kyle Balda, written by The Last Of Us’ Craig Mazin. This movie also stars Emma Thompson, Nicholas Braun, Nicholas Galitzine, and an ensemble that arguably puts Wake Up Dead Man’s to shame. Elsewhere, the Glen Powell rise continues, team Luca Guadagnino grows by two, and the Superman cast just keeps getting bigger. There’s really never a dull week in Hollywood!
