I don't know how you got all that from Denzel dropping out of a project, but do your thang homie..do yo thang.
If Denzel gets nominated this year for his 9th with MacBeth, he'll just need 3 more nominations to "catch" Nicholson. I can EASILY see him get 3 Supporting Actor nominations (if we take Lead Actor out of it) in his 70s in a few prestige projects to get to 12. It's not out of the realm of possibility for him..lol.
There should be a running thread on this, ha ha. Deadline reports---- Denzel saves a man today. ----> This is why Denzel can't get 12 nods, he's too busy saving randoms on the street. Deadline reports---- Denzel ate an apple. ----> What is Denzel's problem? He will never score 12 nods if spends all his time eating when he should be filming movies. Deadline reports---- Denzel takes a walk down Hollywood BLVD. ----> Huh? There goes nomination number 10. Stop lollygagging, Denzel. Someone really doesn't want Denzel to become the most nominated male actor

He won't.
Anyhoo - vanilla wafer cookie Ethan Hawke and others joins the cast. From Deadline:
EXCLUSIVE: Ethan Hawke and Industry star Myha’la Herrold are set to join Julia Roberts and Mahershala Ali in the Netflix thriller Leave the World Behind, with Mr. Robot creator Sam Esmail on board to direct and adapt Rumaan Alam’s novel. Ryan Kiera Armstrong and Charlie Evans are also on board.

Remember when I said Denzel Washington has never been in a film that's an 8 / 10 (arguably - Malcolm X and TToM are close to an 8 anyway)......well if he had done this one as was originally planned he'd have another 6.5 / 10............... because this looks cluttered and confused from the trailer............ but what do I know, it's just a trailer .....I don't "get" Esmail tbh

love that song so much.
Cool trailer. Not sure what to expect and know nothing about the book but it's giving high-concept off-beat contemporary sci-fi and psych thriller which is where Esmail thrives. Looks like a mix between Charlie Kaufman & Jordan Peele but more energetic. If he can stick the landing this could be really good... it could also fail miserably and be 2023's White Noise but I'm cautiously optimistic and thoroughly intrigued.

Oof...audiences really seem to despise this film. That 34% Audience Score on Rotten Tomatoes is rough as hell! Guess Denzel dodged a bullet with this one by doing The Equalizer 3 instead.

THe movie is pretty awful - and it is actually hysterical meme heaven in a lot of ways.......this trend of end of the world doomsday movies - next up Civil War .....is quite tiresome, casually racist, politically daft and culturally "off". I always say that movies should be set now so they can address the world now.......all of these movies however - it appears in the case of Civil War anyway - are pointedly misaddressing it..... No wonder people hate it ......um.......
