Nomadland Interview Chlo Zhao Explains How She Made The Movie

However, none of her peers pulled off what Zhao has done. With star Frances McDormand and a cast almost entirely comprised of nomads found on the fly, Zhao shot the delicate road movie “Nomadland” in secret even as she tackled Hollywood’s biggest franchise machine. With “Nomadland” now scheduled for theatrical release December 4, Searchlight has positioned the movie as a serious Oscar contender playing all the major fall festivals — Venice, TIFF, and NYFF (as well as a drive-in premiere September 11 at Pasadena’s Rose Bowl produced in conjunction with Telluride)....

Pinocchio Trailer Robert Zemeckis Directs Cynthia Erivo Tom Hanks

Such is the haunting question at the center of Disney+’s “Pinocchio,” premiering September 8.
