DEADLINE – BAFTA, Golden Globe and Emmy nominee Elizabeth Olsen (Avengers: Infinity War) and Golden Globe nominee Charles Melton (May December) are set to star in Todd Solondz’s darkly comic new feature Love Child.
The story follows Misty who is stuck in a loveless marriage to a brutish husband. Junior, her precocious 11-year-old is her only consolation. When Easy, a handsome vagabond stranger, appears, Junior hatches a plan to get rid of his father so that his mother can marry him instead. But things end up backfiring, so Junior comes up with yet another plan, this one even more devious, and with more disastrous—and unexpected—consequences.

Christine Vachon commented: “I’m thrilled to re-team with Todd Solondz on Love Child. We’ve worked together for many years now, starting with Happiness in the late 90s, and more recently with Wiener Dog. Love Child is yet another example of his singularity as a filmmaker – this dark, hilarious movie could only come from him.”

COMING SOON According to Screen Daily, Emmy nominee Elizabeth Olsen and Oscar winner Alicia Vikander have signed on to lead The Assessment cast for the upcoming sci-fi drama film. Olsen and Vikander will reportedly portray a couple living in a dystopian future where the world has been destroyed by climate change. In addition, Pitch Perfect alum Anna Kendrick is also rumored to be in talks to join the project, which is expected to begin filming this summer in Cologne, Germany.
Olsen gained worldwide recognition for her role as Wanda Maximoff/Scarlett Witch in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. For her performance in Disney+’s WandaVision series, she earned Emmy and Golden Globe nominations for best actress in a miniseries. She has been recently receiving critical acclaim for her leading role in Max’s true crime limited drama Love & Death, in which she played axe murderer Candy Montgomery.
As for Vikander, The Danish Girl actress’ most recent project was the HBO miniseries Irma Vep, which is an adaptation of Olivier Assayas’ 1996 French movie of the same name. Before starring in The Assessment, she will next be seen in the historical drama Firebrand, in which she’ll play King Henry VIII’s sixth and final wife, Catherine Parr.
What to Expect in The Assessment?
The Assessment will be directed by French filmmaker Fleur Fortuné in his directorial feature debut. The screenplay is written by Nell Garfath-Cox, Dave Thomas and John Donnelly. The project has received a funding of 1 million euros from the Cologne regional film fund Filmstiftung NRW. The film is a production by Number 9 Films and Filmproduktion.
“Set in a world destroyed by climate change,” reads the synopsis. “Part of society has created a parallel world for itself. Life is controlled and optimized, and the desire to have children is also not left to chance. The lives of a successful young couple are therefore put under close scrutiny by a female assessor over the course of seven days.”
I’ve missed the frequent updates during Doctor Strange and Hattie Harmony press tours and we have some time before Love and Death is going to be released so I thought I would take this opportunity to release some new ‘old’ outtakes from 2017, 2018, and 2021. I hope you enjoy these! I still have two shoots from 2019 but I am postponing them until I finish with the 2021 photozhoots.
I took a little extra time to get these so I could get a better quality. These are UHD/4k. I hope you enjoy them! Sadly the blooper reel is just from YouTube for now sin its heavily tagged by the uploader. As soon as the Blu Ray comes out, I’ll repose those caps.

PEOPLE: A new gag reel shared exclusively with PEOPLE shows stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Elizabeth Olsen in silly blooper moments behind the scenes of the Marvel movie, which becomes available on digital June 22.
Olsen, 33, laughs in one moment as she tries to be serious in character as the Scarlett Witch. While hoisted up in the air with wires, what appears to be leaves and debris flies onto her face, causing her to break during multiple takes.

Cumberbatch, 45, shows off his dance moves in several other instances, along with costars Rachel McAdams, Benedict Wong and Xochitl Gomez, who also playfully danced on set.
“Nailed it!” says Cumberbatch at one point in the montage, fully dressed in his Doctor Strange costume.
Gomez joins the Marvel Cinematic Universe as America Chavez, a young teen with the rare ability to travel the multiverse, in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. She told PEOPLE one of her favorite parts about filming was working alongside stars Cumberbatch, Wong and Olsen, the latter of whom Gomez said she was “literally in awe” of on set.
She said her costars were super supportive during filming. “One of my first days, Benedict Wong knocked on my trailer door, gave me his phone number, and was just like, ‘I’m here for you if you ever want to talk. If you feel a little overwhelmed, I’m here for you,’ ” she recalled.
“That was really sweet because as a 14-year-old girl, I was just like, ‘Oh my God. This is a lot.’ It’s such a huge character and [it’s a] big responsibility,” she added. “It was really sweet to have that support.”
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness will be released on digital June 22, and on 4K, Blu-ray and DVD July 26.
ZEDISTA: The Portal to the Multiverse is now open, and Marvel Studios’ Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is officially in theaters! 🌀
With the Multiverse unlocked, master of the mystic arts Doctor Strange journeys into the unknown with mystical allies both old and new. One of those allies is fellow Avenger, Wanda Maximoff / Scarlet Witch.
Coming off the heels of last year’s hit sensation, Marvel Studios’ WandaVision, actress Elizabeth Olsen can’t help but be in awe of the woman Wanda Maximoff is now. At a press conference for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness earlier this week, Olsen commented, “In the previous films before WandaVision, I took up a lane for storytelling that was more grounded in sincerity, love, loss, grief. And with WandaVision, I got to become anything and everything, and really, really grow [Wanda] into a woman.”
“And leading her to [accept] that she is this mythic woman,” continued Olsen. “That is her destiny. And I hope that in this film people see that continuation of her acceptance of who she is, the journey that she has taken to get to this moment. I feel like she has way more clarity now than ever in this film.”
When posed with the scenario of who would win in a battle between the two sorcerers, Doctor Strange or Scarlet Witch, Olsen cheekily responded, “Well… I think we all know who would win.”
Titular star Benedict Cumberbatch, who plays Doctor Strange, chimed in, “She’s pretty all-powerful, let’s be honest,” before adding, “Oh, I’ve got an id. I have humility. I can accept that.”
Will it all come to a head in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness? Head to the theaters and find out now!
In Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, the MCU unlocks the Multiverse and pushes its boundaries further than ever before. Journey into the unknown with Doctor Strange, who, with the help of mystical allies both old and new, traverses the mind-bending and dangerous alternate realities of the Multiverse to confront a mysterious new adversary.
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness stars Benedict Cumberbatch, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Elizabeth Olsen, Benedict Wong, Xochitl Gomez, with Michael Stühlbarg, and Rachel McAdams. The film is directed by Sam Raimi, and Kevin Feige is the producer. Louis D’Esposito, Victoria Alonso, Eric Hauserman Carroll and Jamie Christopher serve as executive producers. The screenplay was written by Michael Waldron.
Elizabeth Olsen wrapped WandaVision only two days before jumping into Multiverse of Madness.
There are some MASSIVE spoilers ahead for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness!
BUZZFEED:Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is currently the latest Marvel project to take over the box office, as fans flock to see this Sam Raimi–directed movie. And while it is technically the second solo Doctor Strange movie, it’s hard to deny how important Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) is in the film.
I mean, let’s be honest, it really could’ve been called Doctor Strange and the Scarlet Witch in the Multiverse of Madness.
And while this MCU movie has so many storylines, Wanda Maximoff’s transformation into the Scarlet Witch is arguably the biggest and one of the most important, especially because the last Marvel project we all saw Wanda in was WandaVision.
In fact, Elizabeth Olsen notably wrapped WandaVision and then flew to London two days later to start filming Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Meaning she played Wanda Maximoff nonstop for nearly two years.
So, in order to ensure that Wanda’s storylines in Multiverse of Madness made sense, writer Michael Waldron said he collaborated a lot with Elizabeth, who has “total ownership over Wanda and the Scarlet Witch.”
THE DIRECT: Even though Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is a box office hit, it’s already proven to be one of the MCU’s more contentious additions. Benedict Cumberbatch may have top billing, but Doctor Strange 2 is as much about Elizabeth Olsen’s Wanda Maximoff as it is about the former Sorcerer Supreme; and in light of her character’s journey in WandaVision, her role in the film has led to considerable backlash.
In Olsen’s first scene of the Doctor Strange sequel, she’s established as the villain with full intentions of killing America Chavez to absorb her power. Why? To be with her twin boys who exist in another universe.
For those who watched WandaVision on Disney+, the switch from grieving but accepting heroine to the fully-fledged Scarlet Witch, willing to kill others for alternate versions of her own children, just might be the film’s biggest shocker. And, for some corners of the Marvel fan base, a disservice.
Now that Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness has made its theatrical debut, the writer who penned Wanda’s “Strange” story is explaining why the film’s villain was Wanda all along.
Doctor Strange 2 Writer Reacts to Wanda Maximoff Complaints
In an interview with The Playlist, Doctor Strange 2 writer Michael Waldron responded to fan complaints about how Wanda’s character was handled in Multiverse of Madness, saying, “I guess I would say to the WandaVision fans, like, I get it:”
“I guess I would say to the WandaVision fans, like, I get it. Watching a character you love do bad things sucks. That elicits a strong feeling, which is what we’re trying to do in the movies. We never would have done it if it didn’t feel like the next step in her character journey.”
When fans last saw Wanda on Disney+, she had accepted the loss of Vision and her sitcom family and felt remorse for having hurt the people of Westview. She then retreated to a remote cabin where her astral form studied the Darkhold, all before hearing cries of help from her kids.
And, while it’s no secret to Marvel fans that the Darkhold is bad news, her turn to the role of a villain felt jarring so soon after embracing her personal losses and regretting her Westview mistakes.
But according to Michael Waldron, Wanda’s struggle with grief hadn’t quite reached its conclusion.
