A Christmas mystery, 'Fruitcakes: Dawn of Drag,' a Hungarian thriller, films with animalistic titles and a Lithuanian mashup of family drama, the Chinese 'Book of Changes' and retro sci-fi also feature at PÖFF.
The filmmaker's five-minute short reunited him with 'Obsession' costume designer Blair James, who tells The Hollywood Reporter the project was filmed just three and a half weeks before its release.
McKellen and Stewart led the original 'X-Men' franchise for 20th Century Fox, portraying Magneto/Erik Lehnsherr and Professor Charles Xavier, respectively.
Stewart died Wednesday at his home in Los Angeles at 86 following “a brief and poignant journey with Alzheimer’s disease and Lewy body dementia,” longtime spokesperson Kelly Bush Novak announced.
The actor originated the role of Prof. Charles Xavier for 20th Century Fox in 2000, and will reprise the role in Marvel's upcoming 'Avengers: Doomsday.'
He’s forever known for playing Jean-Luc Picard and Charles Xavier, whom he “admired for their morality, for their kindness, for their sensitivity, for their compassion.”
"I'm really happy that your film is doing as well as it's doing because I think it pushes the boundaries and we all learn from it," Amir Bar-Lev told Fielder, while Chai Vasarhelyi said of the huge box office showing of the doc, "It was kind of like the most beautiful moment ever in nonfiction."
Ahead of his next starring turn in James Gray's 'Paper Tiger' opposite Adam Driver and Scarlett Johansson, the actor inks for management representation with Rick Yorn and Scott Greenberg.
