Christopher Vourlias For the latest edition of Focus COPRO’, a program launched in 2018 by Cannes’ Short Film Corner to give a boost to first-time feature directors, the organizing team decided to give the event a reboot, scrapping the formal pitches and giving the selected filmmakers a chance to mingle and network in a more casual setting.After a breezy lunch at Cannes’ Carlton Beach on May 23, the Cannes Short Film Corner Industry team described the event as “a great moment to discover and meet these renowned talented filmmakers and producers, who already have an impact on today’s cinema and will confirm their artistic vision with their first feature.”Among the industry professionals who joined the up-and-coming filmmakers were not only respected producers and sales agents, but a range of reps from leading co-production markets, labs, residencies, workshops and institutions focused on identifying and nurturing emerging talent. “We noticed since a few years ago that some of the projects were at a very early stage, and that they would gain from getting in touch with specific development programs,” the organizers told Variety.

Lise Pedersen “The Little Nicholas: Happy as Can Be” by Benjamin Massoubre and Amandine Fredon is having its world premiere at a Special Screening at the Cannes Film Festival on May 20.Several years in the making, the film brings together the world-famous French schoolboy and his creators, author René Goscinny and cartoonist Jean-Jacques Sempé, as it goes back and forth between their world and his imaginary world.Translated into more than 30 languages, the Little Nicholas short stories have been adapted to fiction but never to animation until now. For the creative team, it was essential to stay true both to Goscinny’s short stories and to Sempé’s drawings.“The main challenge was to create the Little Nicholas’ world in animation and, at the same time, remain faithful to Sempé’s style – his drawings are very small, they’re made in ink, which gives them a sort of awkward but very lively energy, full of emotion.

Michael Schneider Variety Editor at LargeEmmy FYC events are back — and boy, are they ever back. After two years of mostly virtual panels — with some drive-in events in the mix — networks and studios were once again given permission by the Television Academy this year to swing the doors open and hold in-person panels, screenings and experiences.And perhaps tired of watching panels at home while eating food delivery meals, TV Academy members also appear ready to hop in their cars and join the FYC gauntlet in person. They have plenty of choices: Given the sheer volume of Emmy contenders eager for an FYC slot, there can be up to four events per day — two 5 p.m.

And this week, The Lincoln Lawyer has shot straight to the top of the streaming giant's charts and got us all staying up way beyond our bedtimes as we binge.The ten part legal drama has brought the character of Michael Connelly back to our screens for the first time since the 2011 film. Starring Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, Neve Campbell and Jazz Raycole, it is based on the 2008 novel The Brass Verdict and is so named because the main character, defence attorney Mickey Haller (Garcia-Rulfo), works out of a chauffeur driven Lincoln town car rather than in an office.The show is the brainchild of David E Kelly who is behind some of the biggest shows in recent years including Big Little Lies, Big Sky and Nine Perfect Strangers.

Clayton Davis One of the leading Emmy contenders this year is Hulu’s “Only Murders in the Building,” which could be one of the most nominated comedy series in the field. In addition, the comedy series, which will drop its second season in the middle of Emmy nom voting, could make history for two of its guest actor comedy submissions — Nathan Lane and James Caverly.Lane could become the most nominated actor in the history of the guest actor comedy category (beginning in 1975), while Caverly will be the first deaf actor ever recognized.A likely frontrunner for writing and directing, particularly for “The Boy From 6B,” the critically acclaimed seventh episode of the inaugural season, will be a focused highlight that Hulu will put forth with the TV Academy.
