The Oscar-nominated song “Wahzhazhe (A Song for My People)” by Scott George has a deep meaning. The lyrics, sung in Osage, invite listeners to stand up, be tall and be proud. “We’re still here after all of that,” George says.
What George is referring to is the true story of the Osage murders and tragedy that is the basis of Martin Scorsese’s Oscar-nominated film “Killers of the Flower Moon.” George made history when he became the first Osage writer to be nominated for an Academy Award, finding himself being recognized alongside Billie Eilish, Mark Ronson, Diane Warren and Jon Batiste in the original song category.
George knew the “Moon” story when he received the call to write a song for the film. “Some of my relatives were involved in it, and it was difficult to watch,” he admits. But the story was an important one that needed to be told.

Director Martin Scorsese has long been known for his rigorous dedication to authenticity, and “Killers of the Flower Moon” is quite possibly his densest film yet in terms of journalistic detail. Working closely with Osage advisers who vetted every line of Scorsese and Eric Roth’s screenplay, researcher Marianne Bower compiled thousands of pages of research material and visual references that she made available to all of the department heads as resources to tell their tragic story. The result is one of the most fully realized historical epics ever put on screen, a film in which each gesture, fabric, prop, and camera movement builds to create an immersive emotional experience for the audience.
The demand for verisimilitude placed extreme demands on Scorsese’s collaborators, all of whom felt a deep sense of responsibility to the Osage people. “It was important to [Scorsese] that it be truthful and fair,” production designer Jack Fisk told IndieWire,...

Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour is back to eat the weekend box office with a fork and knife as the concert film grooves to $5.9M as an estimated Thursday total. The Sam Wrench-directed movie gives Swifties a front-row seat to one of the most in-demand tours in decades, pulling $98.7M at 3,855 theaters overall. These numbers are all the more impressive, considering the Eras Tour exits theaters Monday through Wednesday, building hype for a weekend-centric theatrical event.
Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon also screened in cinemas on Thursday, blooming with $2.6M in previews. Showings for Scorsese’s latest epic – which we loved – began at 2 p.m. due to the film’s 3 hours and 26 minutes runtime. No one knows if Flower Moon can defeat The Eras Tour at the box office this weekend. However, analysts predict another impressive weekend for the blonde bombshell from West Reading, Pennsylvania.

No production designer has created more iconic, gorgeous outdoor imagery than Jack Fisk, whose 50-year filmography is filled with classics — “Days of Heaven,” “The Tree of Life,” “Mulholland Drive,” “There Will Be Blood,” and “The Revenant” represent just a fraction of his output. Yet according to Fisk, a “well-designed” film is not his goal. “I always lean more toward a documentary style,” he told IndieWire. “I love the idea of telling a story that will not only sell popcorn, but give you information.”
Fisk’s latest project, “Killers of the Flower Moon,” provided just that kind of opportunity, with director Martin Scorsese telling the true story behind a series of murders committed in the Osage Nation in the 1920s after oil was discovered on tribal land. “Marty really wanted to tell it from the Osage point of view,” Fisk said. “He wanted it to be truthful and fair, and that...

Taylor Swift, the pop icon who’s untouchable and burns brighter than the sun, has no plans to let go of her stranglehold on the box office when Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon takes the stage. Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour banked $92.3M in its first weekend, with theaters pausing showtimes between Monday and Thursday. While the concert film could take a 60%-70% dip in its second weekend with $27M-$37M, it could be enough to walk all over Scorsese’s latest epic at the box office.
Analysts watching Killers of the Flower Moon predict a $20M-$25M opening for Scorsese’s gripping drama. Considering the film’s 3-hour, 26-minute runtime, that’s an impressive take for a theater experience that should come with complimentary adult diapers. While some of the year’s most significant films have been victims of the SAG-AFTRA strike and an inability to promote new projects,...

The version of “Killers of the Flower Moon” that is opening in theaters this weekend is far different from the “Killers of the Flower Moon” that director Martin Scorsese first attempted to bring to the big screen. Originally, Scorsese and co-writer Eric Roth planned to more faithfully adapt David Grann’s 2017 book of the same name and wrote a script from the perspective of the FBI agents who investigated a string of murders among the Osage Nation in the 1920s. Scorsese recently told BFI’s Sight & Sound magazine that this first script “was going to take four-and-a-half hours just to read it.”
“Our script was over two hundred pages,” he also confirmed to The New Yorker about the original “Flower Moon” screenplay. “One night we had a big reading: myself and Leo and Eric and my daughter, a number of people. The first two hours, we were moving along. The second two hours,...

At the turn of the 20th century, oil brought a fortune to the Osage Nation, who became some of the richest people in the world overnight. The wealth of these Native Americans immediately attracted white interlopers, who manipulated, extorted, and stole as much Osage money as they could before resorting to murder. Based on a true story and told through the improbable romance of Ernest Burkhart (Leonardo DiCaprio) and Mollie Kyle (Lily Gladstone), “Killers of the Flower Moon” is an epic western crime saga, where real love crosses paths with unspeakable betrayal. Also starring Robert De Niro and Jesse Plemons, “Killers of the Flower Moon” is directed by Academy Award winner Martin Scorsese from a screenplay by Eric Roth and Martin Scorsese, based on David Grann’s best-selling book.

More tracking services are catching up with Martin Scorsese‘s Killers of the Flower Moon, and we’ve got a better idea of how the Paramount and Apple Original Films epic will open at the box office. According to the latest analytics, Killers of the Flower Moon could open in the $24M neighborhood when it gallops into theaters on October 20. Estimates suggest the film appeals to men and women over 25, with Scorsese fans of all ages likely to “diaper up” for the three-hour-plus drama.
Despite a production cost of $200M, a $20M return on Killers during opening weekend would be considered a win. Scorsese’s latest film is another anticipated project willing to compete with Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour concert film and David Gordon Green’s The Exorcist: Believer at the October box office. Swift’s epic concert film will likely pull $100M+ in its opening weekend, with Swifties...

Martin Scorsese is readying the release of his forthcoming epic Killers of the Flower Moon, and during a rare wide-ranging, sit-down feature, he was once again quizzed on his opinions about comic book films.
“The danger there is what it’s doing to our culture,” Scorsese said of comic book films during a GQ interview. “Because there are going to be generations now that think movies are only those—that’s what movies are.”
The Taxi Driver filmmaker continued to add that as a result, it is down to contemporary filmmakers to “fight back stronger” to maintain a more robust film culture.
“It’s gotta come from the filmmakers themselves. And you’ll have, you know, the Safdie brothers, and you’ll have Chris Nolan, you know what I mean? And hit ’em from all sides,” he said. “Hit ’em from all sides, and don’t give up. Let’s see what you got.

“Killers of the Flower Moon,” based on the nonfiction book by David Grann (with a script by Scorsese and Eric Roth), stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert De Niro and Lily Gladstone and premiered earlier this year at the Cannes Film Festival, where it garnered rave reviews and a lengthy standing ovation.
The wide theatrical release of “Killers of the Flower Moon” will also include Imax theatres, for which the film will be digitally remastered into the image and sound quality.

Altering an initial platform-release plan, Apple Original Films will instead launch the Cannes Film Festival hit Killers of the Flower Moon to a wide global theatrical release October 20. Apple is partnered with Paramount Pictures on the theatrical release. This before the Martin Scorsese-directed film that stars Robert De Niro, Leonardo DiCaprio and Lily Gladstone gets an Apple TV+ berth. That timing is undetermined at the moment, but it will surely be in the heat of awards season.
Apple originally intended to release the film limited October 6, but the wide global launch certainly favored both Barbie and Oppenheimer this summer. It was not disclosed how many screens worldwide, and it is not out of the realm of possibility that the film could play one of the fall festivals. A run on Imax is also part of the plan.

At the turn of the 20th century, oil brought a fortune to the Osage Nation, who became some of the richest people in the world overnight. The wealth of these Native Americans immediately attracted white interlopers, who manipulated, extorted, and stole as much Osage money as they could before resorting to murder. Based on a true story and told through the improbable romance of Ernest Burkhart (Leonardo DiCaprio) and Mollie Kyle (Lily Gladstone), “Killers of the Flower Moon” is an epic western crime saga, where real love crosses paths with unspeakable betrayal.

While Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny didn’t quite make the splash it was hoping to make when it premiered at the Cannes Film Festival this year, another movie that made its debut there (to much greater success) is Martin Scorsese’s new anticipated drama Killers of the Flower Moon. This film brings a collaboration of Scorsese’s two prominent go-to actors of his career, Robert De Niro and Leonardo DiCaprio. Both of them have worked together previously, portraying father and son in 1993’s This Boy’s Life from director Michael Caton-Jones. However, the standout performance that audiences have been raving about is Lily Gladstone, as DiCaprio’s Native American spouse.
Apple has recently released a new trailer for the drama. And the official synopsis reads,
At the turn of the 20th century, oil brought a fortune to the Osage Nation, who became some of the richest people in the world overnight.

Ahead of its world premiere at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival, the first trailer for “Killers of the Flower Moon” has dropped courtesy of Apple TV+ and Paramount Pictures.

When Deadline revealed this last summer, the original plan was to closely replicate the release pattern of Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon A Time…In Hollywood, which premiered at Cannes in May, 2019 and then opened in late July. The...

Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio are currently in Oklahoma prepping to film “Killers of the Flower Moon” this spring. A report from Osage News confirms the two collaborators met with Osage cultural leaders at the Woolaroc wildlife preserve and museum this week to discuss the contents of “Killers of the Flower Moon,” a 1920s Western murder drama that tracks the newly-formed FBI’s investigation into the deaths of several Osage members. The Osage nation was targeted by industrialists after oil was discovered on their land.
According to Osage News, Principal Chief Geoffrey Standing Bear and the Osage Nation’s film ambassador Chad Renfro organized a meeting with Scorsese and DiCaprio as “an opportunity for Scorsese to speak directly to members of the community about the film.” An official press release added, “Scorsese made a presentation of the overall intention of the film, particularly highlighting the themes of trust and betrayal,...

While the cinematic fare of 2019 casts a wide-ranging net, a largely male-centric line-up dominates the awards season buzz. But from Martin Scorsese’s mature mobster saga “The Irishman” (Netflix) to Todd Phillips’ dark comic-book spinoff “Joker” (Warner Bros.), many of the year’s masculine-leaning picks were either led or significantly aided by women storytellers’ vision and craftsmanship behind the camera.
With the enormous task of producing both of the aforesaid films, as well as executive-producing Josh and Benny Safdie’s manic crime tale “Uncut Gems” (A24), Emma Tillinger Koskoff is among the year’s most prominent creative forces. (Her 2019 credits also include two notable female-driven films: Joanna Hogg’s “The Souvenir” and Danielle Lessovitz’s “Port Authority.”) Koskoff has been Scorsese’s collaborator for 17 years, and “The Irishman” had been on the filmmaker’s plate for over a decade. From the early days, Koskoff responded to the story’s unflinching...

“It’s funny, it never occurred to me that I sort of was a gangster movie specialist,” two-time Emmy winner Bob Shaw says. That being said, the production designer certainly has the credentials. Known for his work on Martin Scorsese’s The Wolf of Wall Street, and such critically acclaimed series as The Sopranos and Boardwalk Empire, Shaw brought all his knowledge of the criminal element to bear on Scorsese’s The Irishman, a sprawling gangster epic filmed over the course of 106 days, at over 150 locations.
Starring Robert De Niro, Al Pacino and Joe Pesci, The Irishman centers on Frank Sheeran (De Niro), an aging hit man looking back on his life of crime, his connections to the Bufalino crime family, and his alleged killing of Jimmy Hoffa (Pacino). While the drama is primarily decades—the ’50s, ’60s and ’70s—Steven Zailian’s script travels back and forth in time,...
