Film News Today — November 15, 2026

The world of film is abuzz with exciting news and reflections on classic works. The Indian film scene is getting a spotlight at the International Film Festival of Goa, with titles like 'Dhurandhar' and 'Kantara: A Legend – Chapter 1' included in the Indian Panorama lineup. Meanwhile, in Hollywood, there's been a lot of discussion around the future of popular franchises. Chris Pratt has expressed his enthusiasm for James Gunn to direct a fourth 'Guardians of the Galaxy' film, following Gunn's recent exit from DC Studios.

As we look back at some of the iconic films of the past, there's been a fascinating conversation around the 1998 film 'Club Kid', with some critics debating its perceived conservatism. The film's cinematographer, Adam Newport-Berra, has shared his insights on capturing the intimate and authentic moments of 1990s New York. We're also remembering a film legend, Skip Hinnant, who passed away at 86 and was known for his roles in 'The Electric Company' and as the voice of Ralph Bakshi's 'Fritz the Cat' movies. And, in a related note, James Gunn has addressed rumors about his upcoming projects, including the 'Superman' sequel 'Man of Tomorrow', which has yet to be seen by anyone at Skydance.
