He has also served as a producer for the first season of Amazon’s The Man in the High Castle, the dark comic science-fiction series BrainDead, the BBC/FX three-part miniseries A Christmas Carol, and numerous other projects.
Over his illustrious three-decade career, the filmmaker has received three Academy Award nominations for Directing, and he is recognized for his outstanding work on Thelma & Louise, Gladiator, and Black Hawk Down.
Adding to his impressive list of achievements, he secured two wins: one for Outstanding Television Film with the HBO production The Gathering Storm and another for Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Special with the History Channel’s Gettysburg.
Recently, Scott directed the film Napoleon, which has crossed the $200 million mark globally. His new movie tells the captivating story of the rise and fall of French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte, focusing on his intense relationship with his wife, Josephine.
He has also produced the mystery film A Haunting in Venice, which hit theaters in the United States on September 15, 2023, under 20th Century Studios. The movie received positive reviews from critics and has grossed $122 million worldwide.

‘Sinking Spring’

However, their intended heist takes an unforeseen turn, leading to the unintentional exposure and unraveling of the largest hidden narcotics corridor on the Eastern seaboard. The series promises a compelling narrative filled with suspense and intrigue.
Some of the key members of the series include Brian Tyree Henry as Ray, Wagner Moura as Manny Cespedes, Marin Ireland as Kristy Lynne, Kate Mulgrew as Theresa Bowers, Amir Arison as Mark Nader, Ving Rhames as Bart, Dustin Nguyen as Ho Dinh, and Nesta Cooper as Michelle, among others.
Similarly, the production of Sinking Spring commenced in February 2023 in Philadelphia. However, as of now, the release date for the series has not been disclosed.
‘Gladiator 2’
Gladiator 2 is an upcoming epic historical drama that serves as a sequel to the acclaimed Gladiator (2000). It was produced by Scott Free Productions for Universal Pictures and Paramount Pictures.
The drama unfolds by following Lucius, the son of Maximus’ beloved Lucilla, in the aftermath of Maximus’ death. As a sequel to the original masterpiece, Gladiator 2 holds promise in exploring new dimensions within the historical epic genre.
Some of the cast members in Gladiator 2 include Paul Mescal as Lucius Verus, Connie Nielsen as the mother of Lucius, Derek Jacobi as Senator Gracchus, and Joseph Quinn as co-emperor Caracalla, among others.
Similarly, the production of the drama kicked off in May 2023 in Ouarzazate, Morocco, and entered the filming phase in June 2023. The much-anticipated sequel is scheduled to hit theaters in the United States on November 22, 2024, promising fans a continuation of the epic historical drama.
‘Roads to Freedom’
As per IMDb, Roads to Freedom is a forthcoming 10-episode epic series set to narrate the intricate story of World War II from diverse international perspectives.
The narrative is inspired by the acclaimed books of Sir Antony Beevor, promising a comprehensive exploration of this pivotal historical period. However, details regarding the cast members and the release date of the mini-series are currently undisclosed.
‘Queen & Country’
Queen & Country follows the story of a Special Ops agent who is on the run after assassinating a powerful figure in Eastern Europe. The screenplay is crafted by Olivia Milch and Greg Rucka, with Sylvia Hoeks leading the cast.
The movie is still in the development phase of production, and details such as the release date are yet to be revealed, creating an element of mystery and anticipation for the upcoming film.
‘Wraiths of the Broken Land‘
As per IMDb, Wraiths of the Broken Land revolves around a father’s endeavor to rescue his daughters from a brothel, enlisting the aid of his two sons and their outlaw gang.
The movie is penned by Drew Goddard and S. Craig Zahler. Despite these details, the release date for the film remains undisclosed.
Jurassic World Rebirth, the latest installment in the dinosaur saga, has stomped its way to box office glory. Directed by Gareth Edwards and co-written by Jurassic Park veteran David Koepp, the film premiered on June 17 in London and hit U.S. theaters on July 2. It has already grossed over $334 million globally against a reported budget of $180 million.
This fresh reboot stars Scarlett Johansson and Mahershala Ali in leading roles, supported by Jonathan Bailey, Ed Skrein, and Rupert Friend. The film shifts slightly from the earlier World trilogy tone, leaning into sci-fi thrills and a suspenseful, character-driven story.
Critics have been split. While some praise the visual effects and performances, others say it doesn’t quite recapture the awe of Spielberg’s original. Still, many fans agree that Rebirth is a major improvement over the previous film, Dominion, and a step in the right direction for the franchise.
With its strong performance, Universal is now reportedly developing spin-offs and planning to expand the Jurassic universe further. After ten films and over three decades of dino-dominance, it seems audiences still aren’t done with the thrill of prehistoric adventure.
The Devil Wears Prada 2 is officially underway, and the cast lineup is as iconic as fans hoped. Meryl Streep returns as the icy editor-in-chief Miranda Priestly, joined once again by Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci — reprising their roles nearly two decades after the 2006 original became a cultural classic.
But the sequel isn’t just about the old guard. It’s adding new faces to the high-fashion chaos, including Lucy Liu, Justin Theroux, B.J. Novak, Pauline Chalamet, and Bridgerton star Simone Ashley. Acclaimed actor and director Kenneth Branagh will also appear as Miranda’s husband — a character that’s expected to shake up the dynamics at Runway Magazine.
Plot details are still under wraps, but the film is scheduled to release on May 1, 2026. It’s expected to explore the evolving world of fashion media while diving deeper into Miranda’s personal life and Andy Sachs’ next chapter. Notably missing is Adrian Grenier, who played Andy’s boyfriend Nate in the original. Sources say his character won’t return for the sequel.
With a mix of nostalgia and fresh energy, The Devil Wears Prada 2 promises to deliver sharp dialogue, high fashion, and the kind of dramatic flair only Miranda Priestly can serve.
