TIFF Deal Logjam Loosening? ‘The Blackening’ Scares Up Three WW Offers For Horror-Comedy

Naman Ramachandran “Last Film Show” (“Chhello Show”) India’s contender in the Oscars international feature category, will release across India on Oct. 14. Cashing in on the fact that it is in contention at the 95th Oscars, the distributors – Roy Kapur Films in partnership with PVR – are pricing previews on Oct. 13 across 95 Indian cinemas at INR95 ($1.16). The partly autobiographical drama takes director Pan Nalin back to his roots in Saurashtra, Gujarat, western India, where “Last Film Show” was filmed. The story is set against the backdrop of Indian cinemas witnessing a massive transition from celluloid to digital where hundreds of single-screen cinemas are either in ruins or have disappeared altogether.

Selome Hailu The audience tally for the series premiere of “The Rookie: Feds” jumped from 2.2 million to 6.3 million viewers after one week of multiplatform viewing, Variety has learned exclusively. Live + 7 data indicates a 400% increase in viewership with seven days of availability on Hulu, DVRs and other platforms. Delayed viewing earned “The Rookie: Feds” a significantly higher rating as well: Live + Same Day data after the premiere showed a 0.31 rating in the key adults 18-49 demographic, which then lifted to a 1.48. The episode, titled “Day One,” aired on ABC on Sept. 27. Running on Tuesdays in the 10 p.m. timeslot is certainly a boost for Live + Same Day numbers regarding “The Rookie: Feds,” making it the follow-up to “Bachelor in Paradise” at 9 p.m. with some viewers carrying over. But the Live + 7 numbers, beyond marking good news for ABC, reveal the viewing tendencies of the show’s audience. Namely, a majority of its viewers prefer to tune in after episodes have already aired — which is, of course, not uncommon these days, though it remains a reminder that even network staples like police procedurals and their spinoffs (the original “The Rookie” debuted in 2018) are becoming common streaming fare.

William Earl One of the biggest crowdpleasers of the Toronto International Film Festival has arrived. “The Menu,” a high-class horror comedy written by Seth Reiss and Will Tracy and directed by Mark Mylod, held its rollicking world premiere at the Royal Alexandra Theatre on Saturday. Mylod, the in-demand TV director who has helmed key episodes of “Game of Thrones,” “Shameless” and “Succession,” leaned on the satirical world of the latter series in this black comedy lampooning fine dining, foodie culture and the ultra-rich. Anya Taylor-Joy continues her scene-stealing career as Margot, a cuisine novice who agrees to join obnoxious Tyler (Nicholas Hoult, as infuriating and pathetic as he is on “The Great”) at a hyper-expensive, once-in-a-lifetime meal prepared by the intimidating and legendary Chef Slowik (a devilish Ralph Fiennes) at his private island restaurant. Although the menu is rumored to be legendary, there is, of course, more in store for the diners than meets the eye.
