"Set It Up" Co-Stars Zoey Deutch and Glen Powell Will Reunite for ANOTHER Netflix Romantic Comedy

KC Bailey / Netflix

If you didn't get enough from Zoey Deutch and Glen Powell's undeniable and great chemistry in the Netflix original film Set It Up, looks like we'll be getting some more!

Except it won't be a Set It Up sequel.

On May 2, The Hollywood Reporter exclusively shared that Zoey Deutch and Glen Powell, who starred in Set It Up as two overworked assistants who decide to stage setting up their bosses (played by Lucy Liu and Taye Diggs) with each other, will be reuniting again for a brand new Netflix romantic comedy with the current working title Most Dangerous Game.

While this upcoming Netflix film, which will start production on early 2020, will not be a sequel to the very much fan-appreciated and critically acclaimed 2018 Netflix film (which currently holds a 91% Rotten Tomatoes score), it will reunite leads Zoey Deutch and Glen Powell yet again as well with Set It Up screenwriter Katie Silberman, who will produce the film along with Juliet Berman and Justin Nappi from Treehouse Pictures, who also produced Set It Up. Deutch and Powell are to also executive produce the 2020 film.

Although talks about a Set It Up sequel took place following the success of the Netflix film, including from Set It Up director Claire Scanlon herself who shared to have ideas for a potential sequel, and producer Justin Nappi noticed that "it was clear that audiences were clamoring for a sequel", he shared that collectively they are "excited by the thought of creating a new, distinct film that explores different romantic comedy tropes while still being anchored in everything that we loved about the first movie."

And the excitement for Most Dangerous Game was real, as not long following the news both Deutch and Powell posted on Instagram, with Powell even joking "Wow. [Zoey Deutch] and [Katie Silberman] will do anything to hang out with me again":



The plot of Most Dangerous Game is currently unknown - as well as whether or not Creepy Time will make a cameo in the film (keeping our fingers crossed for that) - just that it will be a romantic comedy film and it will be coming from Katie Silberman, who co-wrote this Valentine's Day debuting, rom-com defying film Isn't Romantic starring Rebel Wilson and Olivia Wilde's directorial debut Booksmart, which Silberman also produced and will hit theaters at the end of this month.

Most Dangerous Game will be Zoey Deutch and Glen Powell's third film collaboration having previously starred in the 2016 film Everybody Wants Some!! and Set It Up, and we approve any future collaborations!

But until Most Dangerous Game hits our TV screens (or phone screen like I use whenever I need to watch The Office on the go), we still have Set It Up to re-watch and catch feelings from all over again and Booksmart hitting theaters on May 24. I'm cool with that.

Sincerely, a very excited Dora Goto

Having Breakfast at Tiffany's is NOW OFFICIALLY a Reality

Paramount Pictures If you're a big Aubrey Hepburn fan or simply a fan of good films from the 1960's like Breakfast at Tiffany's , then you'll probably be giddy as I to find out that an actual café store has opened at the fourth floor of the iconic Tiffany & Co. store located in Fifth Avenue in New York City. The café store is called Blue Box Café (rambling a little bit here so you have time to write it down, okay that's enough), officially opened its doors today, and according to a  review by Vogue  of the café's opening, it offers a $29 breakfast menu option that includes coffee and croissant with the "choice of an avocado toast, truffled eggs, or a smoked salmon bagel with schmear." But Blue Box Café will not only offer breakfast options (* very delicious breakfast options ), as  the  Vogue  review  noted that the cafe also offers lunch options at $39 (which include a starter and main course), including the "Charles Lewis Tiffany"...

Jon Favreau FINALLY Revealed the One Real, Non-CGI Shot He Sneaked in "The Lion King" Adaptation

Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures In the words of Joey Tribbiani, finally now "we know, we know, we know!" In a recent  LA Times article  film director Jon Favreau, who directed this year's  The Lion King adaptation starring Donald Glover and Beyoncé Knowles-Carter, revealed that although the summer Disney film was made using and composed of computer-generated imagery (CGI) - utilizing VR and live-action technology and techniques, of course - the director did put one real-live action shot in the film "just to see if anybody would be able to pick it up." Naturally, in the nature of the Internet, thousands dared to take guesses, but Favreau ultimately ended up revealing on Friday the one real shot he used in The Lion King , revealing it to be "the first shot of the movie that begins The Circle of Life."

Four Days After "The Addams Family" Hit Theaters, A Sequel Has Already Been Confirmed

Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures Hear that? It's the sound of my mind being blown...or that of me snapping along to the Addams Family theme song. Following the commercial success of this year's animated re-imagining of one of our favorite unconventional families,  The Addams Family , which was released on theaters October 11, Deadline  exclusively confirmed on Tuesday that an animated kooky and spooky sequel is already in the works. In just its opening weekend, The Addams Family has earned $30.3 million from its theatrical releases in the United States and Canada (a little bit more than three-quarters of its $40 million budget), surpassing box office predictions and showing that millions of moviegoers are still interested in catching up with what Gomez Addams and his family are doing once again. In doing so,  The Addams Family also became the second highest grossing film in the domestic box office this weekend, following Joker which earned $55.9 million. While it...
