Nearly a year from the industry-wide production shutdown, Hollywood is plotting a major return to filming.
The California Film Commission has revealed that 22 feature films have been selected for the latest round of tax credits under the state’s incentives program. That includes 11 indies and 11 studio movies representing a wide range of budgets, genres and locations., written by Simon Kinberg and to be directed by Jason Bateman; Steven Soderbergh's HBO Max film, starring Zoe Kravitz; and Universal's Scarface remake, written by the Coen Brothers and to be helmed by Luca Guadagnino.
One of the goals of the revamped tax credits program has been to bring production jobs and spending to regions across California and not just Los Angeles. These films do just that, as 16 of the 22 projects plan a total of 304 filming days outside the city's 30-mile-zone. California’s tax credit program has now incentivized more than 60 out-of-zone film and TV projects.
"We’re excited to welcome so many projects — from big-budget studio films to low-budget indies, and everything in between," said Colleen Bell, the California film commission's executive director."The tax credit projects announced today are on track to generate thousands of high-wage jobs and an estimated $642 million in overall in-state spending, with more than $430 million going to below-the-line workers and in-state vendors.
Must everything be re-made? Asking for a friend. 😲
Oh hell no!
Another needless remake 🙄
They should remaster the game instead. Leave the classic movie alone.
No original scripts? Do better Hollywood
Oh this is going to go terribly wrong have you watched the original recently it is so fuqing cheesy its embarrassing you can't even believe you loved it at one time. Like Eddie Murphy in Raw it doesn't hold up today.
Will Hollywood ever have an original idea again?

Yay another unnecessary remake
Also on the list, Passenger 58 from Warner is that a sequel to 1992's Passenger 57?
Noooooo stop it already we do not need a remake of Scarface
Pacino overacting yet still nailing Tony Montana is what makes'Scarface' a classic. Good luck.🤡
PamplinFilmCo I guess they don't have any new ideas. Lol
🙁☹️ Hollywood has no original ideas left.
It’s a reimagining. Scarf Face. Like Edward Scissorhands on a bus.
