Why would there be no updates till May? I thought it said this starts in spring/summer? This was announced in early/mid November. There SHOULD be some announcements very soon.

Considering how very little we're getting so far, I'm not expecting news in spring so probably summer. April/May. I expect another Phantom Thread situation where after a few days of filming we get a title, or working title

Is it too early to ponder a possible Coronavirus delay?

Nothing can be too early at the "barely any info" phase!  :yabbse-grin:
Ascension.

I've been thinking the same thing. Will L.A. productions start being delayed? There hasn't seemed to be much progress going on with this in general (no start date that we know of, no cast announced). It's starting to seem likely. Watch this be the usual 5 year delay.

I'm betting there's a good chance for a massive delay. Considering it went from February to Spring/Summer. And at this rate, it'll probably be started in Summer if we're lucky. But I feel like there's also another good chance that PTA himself is just slowly working on it. Maybe he had an actor but felt he/she wasn't truly ready. Or maybe he's still tinkering with the script event though he has the funding.

If LA productions start getting delayed or shut down that's another level of scary just in the sense of what that represents.

In my experience, most projects tend to be much further down the road of prep than you might think by the time initial tidbits of info leak. I could be wrong, but I'll bet you their offices by now are mostly staffed and close to banging. Daniel Lupi was visiting the Joker offices in prep for West Side Story before we even started principal photography back in late summer 18, and barely anything was known about it other than it had been announced. Now what effect Corona might be having on all this I can't speculate. Let us hurry up and wait.

Let us hope that the Corona won't affect anything!

Interesting you worked on Joker. Did it turn out the way everyone on production expected? Did you guys know Joaquin was doing something special?

Yes

No wtf. Corona has nothing to do with this

poopooboy

It is something to consider. We can't just ignore it  :shock:

Can't really speak for anyone else, but it turned out almost beat for beat (excepting some Zazie material) the way it was written, which, for me, was not a good thing. And special? I mean, it was Joaquin - electric to witness, for sure. But I don't think it's a great performance. And I don't blame him, per se.

Let's be real, he should have two Oscars already and Leo should have won this year.

They just cancelled a huge tennis tournament in SoCal. Coachella is surely next. I hope you're right...
