Tony Hawk reveals that Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross are scoring ‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’ movie

Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor says he is not interested in touring again in the future.Speaking to Rick Rubin for the Tetragrammaton podcast, Reznor discussed a wide range of topics including being on the road.“I don’t want to be away from my kids,” he said of his reluctance to tour again. “I don’t want to miss their lives to go do a thing that I’m grateful to be able to do, and I’m appreciative that you’re here to see it, but I’ve done it a lot, you know?”He added: “I kind of want to feel okay and I want to make sure my family’s okay, and that’s great.

Trent Reznor has shared that he teared up while listening to a Dua Lipa song, claiming it to be a “really well-done piece of music”.Appearing on Rick Rubin’s podcast, Tetragrammaton, the Nine Inch Nails frontman spoke about his struggles with songwriting, sharing: “To me, the hardest thing is the songwriting. Having something to say, something to say with truth, that has reason to exist rather than just a thing.”He also spoke about his newfound appreciation for pop music, which he attributes to his children, explaining that he’d kept his kids sealed away from pop music because he had felt it “sucks generally”. It wasn’t until he heard his daughter singing a Dua Lipa song that he changed his mind.“I heard my daughter, who’s six, singing Dua Lipa the other day,” he recounted.

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music Halsey has signed with Columbia Records, Variety has confirmed. The move comes just two months after the singer parted ways with her longtime label, Capitol Music Group. The move actually reunites Halsey, who uses she/they pronouns, with the label behind one of the two biggest hits of their career: “Closer,” the Chainsmokers song featuring her on co-lead vocals, which topped the Billboard Hot 100 for some 12 weeks in 2016. Halsey also reached No. 1 in 2018 with “Without You.” Halsey first signed with Capitol’s Astralwerks imprint in 2013 and quickly became one of the company’s hottest acts. Yet their fierce independent streak — she often tells a story about a label exec saying she wasn’t ready to make an album, so she asked her fans via Twitter whether they wanted one, to rapturous response — often put them at odds with it.

Even though the Cleveland Cavaliers lost in the first round of the playoffs to the New York Knicks, they still improved a ton this season! With that being said there are still some things Cleveland has to do to make them a contender. Cleveland’s young core is very solid with Mitchell, Mobley, and Garland. The Cavs still need a few pieces though.

Marta Balaga Studios shouldn’t rely just on IP-based content to make artistically bold choices, said director Jeff Rowe at Annecy. “Right now, things like ‘Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse Sperverse’ are this Trojan horse – they are taking a well-known IP and using that to break artistic boundaries and move the medium forward. My hope is that the studios will take these kinds of risks also with original ideas.” Rowe, now behind “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem,” spoke out at Variety’s “Breaking the Borders of Animation” panel, moderated by its chief film critic Peter Debruge. 

“Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem” doesn’t hit theaters until August, but the film made a splash on Monday at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival where it debuted to a rousing reception complete with a six-minute standing ovation. The crowd’s applause was so strong, in fact, that director Jeff Rowe was dragged back onstage to take it all in.“Being in the room and feeling all the reactions and hearing all the laughter was amazing, but what really stood out to me was to see our movie received and appreciated in that way by a lot of people who really love and care about animation,” Rowe told TheWrap in a statement.The cut screened at Annecy had just a few scenes of rough animation but was otherwise complete (including a score by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross).

A version of this story about “Jason Isbell: Running With Our Eyes Closed” first appeared in the Race Begins issue of TheWrap’s Emmy magazine.The latest installment in the HBO Max Music Box series created by Bill Simmons, “Jason Isbell: Running With Our Eyes Closed” finds director Sam Jones (“Tony Hawk: Until the Wheels Fall Off,” “I Am Trying to Break Your Heart: A Film About Wilco”) following the writing and recording of singer Jason Isbell’s 2020 album “Reunions.” But the film is about far more than one of the gifted musician and writer’s best albums, delving into his self-destructive days with drugs and alcohol and his marriage to fellow singer Amanda Shires, a charged creative and personal partnership that nearly fell apart while Jones’ cameras were rolling.Sam, why a film about Jason Isbell?Sam Jones: He was on my interview show (“Off Camera With Sam Jones”), and once I chatted with him, I felt like not only did he have an interesting story, but he was good at telling it.

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are back with Seth Rogen’s help.

Ever since 1990, “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” have had a footprint on the big screen. While a new live-action film is years away, producer/co-writer Seth Rogen (“The Boys“) is behind a brand new take on the ‘Ninja Turtles’ franchise with the upcoming animated movie, “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem.” As the quirky new animated pic releases this summer, Paramount has released a brand new trailer.

While it’s been a little while since the “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” franchise has found success on the big screen, it appears, at least at first glance, that the new animated film, ‘Mutant Mayhem,’ could be the reboot that the Turtles need. The film is very clearly borrowing a bit of the style of “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse” and is using it to reinvent ‘TMNT’ for a new audience.
