Playlist Most Anticipated Films of 2020

(Rooting for an awards season 2020 table next to Fincher’s table

)

13. “Nightmare Alley”
Director: Guillermo del Toro (“Pan’s Labyrinth,” “The Shape of Water”)
Cast: Bradley Cooper, Cate Blanchett, Toni Collette, Rooney Mara, Willem Dafoe, David Strathairn
Synopsis: A remake of the 1947 noir where a corrupt con-man teams up with a female psychiatrist to trick people into giving them money.
What You Need To Know: After the runaway success of “The Shape of Water,” Guillermo Del Toro could have done anything he wanted. It would appear that with the proverbial blank check that the lauded filmmaker has been granted, he has decided to try his hand at a classic, hard-boiled noir – albeit one that will no doubt showcase del Toro’s noted proclivity toward the moody and the macabre. This director has always been able to attract top-shelf talent on the basis of his considerable imagination and industry goodwill. Word is that the film will be less supernaturally-inclined than the director’s previous work, as Del Toro has described as being very R-rated and also an “underbelly of society” type of movie. Whatever this director is cooking up, it will doubtlessly be something special.
Release Date: Unknown, but we would be very surprised if this doesn’t get an auspicious holiday release. – NL

Do we know for sure that Nightmare Alley is coming in 2020? I thought it'd be more likely to release in 2021.

Seems true because there’s a casting call for February!! in Buffalo.I hope Rooney doesn't miss the Oscars ceremony. And if this calendar is true, maybe this is the reason she is not in Mank. In any case, if she had to choose, she chose well.

“Rooney has built a powerful career playing soulful, intense, cerebral female characters. In January, she will start work on the new Guillermo del Toro film Nightmare Alley after a three-year absence from a film set.

Mara didn’t anticipate that she would become so absorbed by Hiraeth. After months of immersion in growth charts and distribution and inventory and talk of investment, she’s relishing the chance to act again. “I’m so excited, I can’t wait,” she says of her real job. “As an actor, you go off and you make something and you give it all of your attention and it’s a very intense experience, but it’s three months and so it’s easy to give it 150 per cent and forget about the rest of your life. Hiraeth is also very intense, but it never ends. It just keeps going.…”

That said, she’s grown to enjoy the power that running a house brings with it. “It has been really nice having more of a say in things. I love acting, and being at the whim of everyone, especially the director’s vision. And not having to make hard decisions, and letting someone else lead. But, yes, it has been fun to wear a different hat and get to work in a different way.”

Will we see her take a more political stance in her on-screen work? For Mara, it seems, acting and veganism co-exist independently – although she no longer wears fur or leather for a role. “Of course, it’s incredible to have a platform to talk about the things that are important to you. It’s an amazing part of what I get to do. And I am a political person. But I don’t want to muddy the two things.

Film Stage 100 Most Anticipated movies of 2020

64. Nightmare Alley (Guillermo del Toro)

It’s always surprising when a filmmaker known for his original work decides to embark on an adaptation, especially if his last project, an awards season favorite like The Shape of Water, was such a resounding success. Luckily, the choice of material in this case is a perfect fit. Director Guillermo del Toro and screenwriter Kim Morgan seem like an ideal pairing for adapting William Lindsay Gresham’s novel, which Edmund Goulding made into a haunting and lurid carnie noir. His film is a classic bordering on cult status, starring Tyrone Powers as a carnival worker turned con-man, complete with images reminiscent of Tod Browning’s Freaks and a shocking film noir structure. These ingredients, with a cast including Bradley Cooper, Cate Blanchett, Toni Collette, and Rooney Mara, are intriguing to imagine in del Toro’s hands. – Tony H.
